germainesemeleer02022010Philipsburg: --- Members of the RST and Federal Detectives have detained officer Germaine Semeleer who has been on suspension for over a year now as they investigate the brutal murder of Christian Lloyd. Officer Semeleer was involved in the kidnapping of some prostitutes from Crystal Bar sometime ago. He was convicted in the court of First Instance and has since appealed.
Lloyd was found dead in his St. Peters home on January 25th 2010; police said Lloyd was found on his bed covered in blood. To date police have not released the types of injuries that killed the well known pageant trainer. An autopsy was scheduled to take place on Tuesday to determine the cause of death.
Sources told SMN News that police got information about the alleged killer the same day they went to the murder scene to remove the body of Christian Lloyd. SMN News learnt that the "village boys" of St. Peters gave police detailed information about the suspended officer whose car was seen leaving the crime scene. Police also intercepted the victim's phone records and saw that officer Semeleer was the last person that allegedly spoke to Lloyd prior to his death.
SMN News learnt that the police internal affairs on St. Maarten started an investigation on the alleged suspect the moment they were notified. However, the case has been transferred to Curacao. It is not clear if Semeleer willingly surrendered to police and left with the officers to his native island of Curacao and is cooperating with the ongoing investigations.
SMN News carried an article on Friday evening explaining that that there have been consistent rumors within the community of St. Maarten linking a suspended officer to one of the recent murders, but police and the prosecutor's office were tightlipped about the investigation.

In an invited comment Prosecutor Rienk Mud said no one was arrested in the murder of Christian Lloyd but several persons are being heard (questioned) by the police as the investigations proceed. Mud said he would not be giving any comment on the ongoing investigations since it is very much in its early stages.

christianlloyd25012010The St. Maarten Police Department (KPSSS) have had its fair share of negativity from within the force causing long serving and dedicated officers of the force to face shame and disgrace. The court of first instance convicted several immigration officers, including the former head of immigration and the Chief Commissioner of Police for corruption, forgery and bribery. Officers were also convicted for taking bribes and extortion but this is the first time an officer has been detained in a murder investigation.
SMN News also learnt that officer Semeleer was in a relationship with the victim as well as with one of his colleagues working at SLAC office stationed at the Simpson Bay Police Outpost.
While SMN News has reported that officer Semeleer is on suspension from the police force it is not clear if he has been officially fired from the force. SMN News is receiving conflicting information on the working status of Semeleer since both the police and prosecutor's office has refused to elaborate on the suspect and the investigation. Officer Semeleer was convicted for illegal house search, and he appealed the verdict. It is still not clear if the case has been finalized in the judicial system of the Netherlands Antilles.

Presently reporters on St. Maarten have to rely on information they receive on the streets since law enforcement is not releasing any type of information to the media. It is however, very difficult for media outlets to publish accurate information without the cooperation of both the police and the public prosecutor's office.
Due to the lack of information there were rumors throughout the community of St. Maarten on Tuesday linking brigadier Giovanni Sprott to this murder investigation. Members of the community went as far as publishing Sprott's name on Facebook claiming that he was arrested for this ongoing investigation. Currently Sprott is on sick leave and has spoken to this reporter several times on Tuesday. When contacted about the recent incident he said that people went very far because they contacted his mother and told her he was arrested for murder. "This caused my mom to fall sick, people also contacted my daughter who is studying abroad with the same information Sprott said people should get their facts straight before smearing anyone.

The prosecutors office should release freely, any and all information that doesn't jeopardize the investigation.

I know Christian when he was small I had to look out him and other kids in the neighborhood. He was always himself since small, he did not pretend for no one. Those without sin cast the first stone. None of us are perfect. No one has the right to destroy another whether physically or with words. I pray GOD bless all of those who are involved in this situation. Many more people close to the people involved are hurting right now. Christian boy remember the last time I see you in 89 you said "Cuz make sure you don't ever forget me" I never did, be free now my friend, no more pain and suffering.

Why would you send a ex-police to curaçao to continue the investigation?
Are they afraid that something might happen to him?
It seems as if the population if saint martin French and Dutch knows who is sleeping with who and who has aids and who don't, it is wrong to call people names regardless to the fact, that isn't helping solve nothing, the only thing you're doing is showing the world how
much you love confusion and chaos.
People need to know that whatever you write
can be trace by 5 means : your IP address,SSID,WPA2, IPSec and VPN.

I am feeling very hurt and shame at this moment to see how many uneducated people we have living in our community. The only thing they can think of to write is slandering people. Calling people names and judging them, putting all their privacy out there is not doing sxm name any good. Grow up, if you can't write something decent then don't write anything at all. Pick up a book and read, look at the news, educate yourself. God is our only judge, so stop trying to play god and let people live their lives and let the justice system do their job.

Ok people you see what you guys cause by mentioning Mr. Sprott name, you could of kill his mom or his daughter, I find when Mr. Sprott is off his sick leave he should find out who call his mom and daugther and carry them to court sued them because these mellee people on the island don't have nothing to do, go and find out if the corners of your house need cleaning instead of going on Facebook, SMNNEWS, or whatever website to mention people name. That's why I'm rightig my story so the day that I die it will be read as my Ulogy so no one have a F...k to say. But nevertheless they will always talk. Remember in SXM you have to learn to talk with your eyes and see with your eyes people remember this. smilies/angry.gif

Wow !! The lack of education brings about bad grammar and spelling. The lack of empathy brings about slandering and accusations. Let's not forget that there are other people involved in this besides the victim and the suspect. Every one at some point or another have a dark side. That part of Christian's life was his bright side. We grew up together and he never hid it. No one has the right to take his life because they do not want their secret out. We as a people should stop being ignorant about social stigmas. This is just one ugly mess. R.I.P. Christian, I'm going to miss you and so is all of your friends.

Be careful what you write, nobody never release a statement that says he (gs) is indeed the murderer, unless you know something the police don't know because up to now he is only a suspect and held for interrogation that can last between 24 to 72 hours and maximum of 8 days, but if they can't link him to the crime seen he'll be walk the streets again.

Just for your information; here is the article copied out of the penal law.

Start brushing up on your dutch and READ this...




Belediging / smaad:



Vordering:

X te verbieden zich nog verder onrechtmatig over Y uit te laten;
X te bevelen de door hem in medium * gedane uitlatingen te rectificeren, alsmede Z te verbieden de website Z als podium voor onrechtmatige uitlatingen door X en / of anderen te laten fungeren;
Alles op straffe van dwangsommen;


Stelling Y:

De door X in woord en geschrift publiekelijk gedane uitlatingen over Y bevattten onwaarheden en/of onnodig kwetsende kwalificaties, die zijn eerlijkheid en integriteit en daarmee zijn goede naam aantasten en die volgens Y daarom jegens hem onrechtmatig zijn.
X heeft niet geprobeerd een maatschappelijk misstand aan de kaak te stellen, doch diens bewoordingen laten geen andere conclusie toe dan dat zijn optreden niet in het teken staat van het dienen van het publieke belang, maar veeleer in het teken van het dienen van de oplage van zijn tijdschrift en zijn eigen belang bij bekendheid. Het was hem erom te doen de reputatie van Y te beschadigen en hij speelde daarbij op de man.
Een dergelijke kwalificatie heeft ernstige gevolgen voor de beroepsuitoefening als advocaat;
Beschuldiging is zeer diffamerend en voor een advocaat uiterst schadelijk en vindt geen, althans onvoldoende, steun in het beschikbare feitenmateriaal;
X heeft de grenzen van het rechtens betamelijke overschreden en zich onnodig grievend uitgelaten, zonder zich in de vereiste rekenschap te geven van de te verwachten gevolgen ervan voor Y in zijn hoedanigheid als advocaat;


Beoordelingskader:



Gerechtshof Amsterdam, 268/07, LJN BA5599 (maffiamaatje-arrest):

Bij de beoordeling staat voorop dat het gevorderde een beperking vormt op het grondrecht van vrijheid van meningsuiting data an X c.s. op grond van art. 10 lid 1 EVRM toekomt.
Dit recht kan volgens het tweede lid van dat verdragsartikel slechts worden beperkt indien deze beperking bij wet is voorzien en deze in een democratische samenleving noodzakelijk is, bijvoorbeeld ter bescherming van de goede naam of rechten van anderen;
Van een beperking bij wet voorzien is sprake wanneer de uitlatingen van X onrechtmatig zijn in de zin van art. 6: 162 BW.
Nagegaan moet worden of er een noodzaak bestaat de uitingsvrijheid te beperken;
Bij de beantwoording van de vraag of dit zich hier voordoet staan twee, ieder voor zich hoogwaardige maatschappelijke en persoonlijke belangen tegenover elkaar: aan de ene kant dat individuele burgers zoals Y niet door uitlatingen in de media worden aangetast in hun eer, goede naam en persoonlijke integriteit, aan de andere kant het belang van journalisten, zoals Y, zich in het openbaar kritisch, opiniërend en/of waarschuwend moeten kunnen uitlaten ter signalering van misstanden die de samenleving raken;
Welke van deze belangen in het concrete geval de doorslag behoort te geven, hangt af van de in onderling verband te beschouwen omstandigheden. In dit geval zijn de volgende omstandigheden van belang:
De ernst van de misstand, welke de uitlatingen aan de kaak beogen te stellen;
De mate waarin de beschuldigingen ten tijde van de uitlatingen steun vonden in het toen beschikbare feitenmateriaal;
De inkleding van de beschuldiginen;
De aard van het programma waarin de uitlatingen zijn gedaan en het gedrag van de benadeelde;


Hof:

Y is een zeer bekende persoonlijkheid, hetgeen met zich meebrengt dat hij als zodanig een grotere tolerantie dient op te brengen dan een private persoon ten opzichte van in de media tegenover hem gedane negatieve uitlatingen;
Y heeft de door X geuite kritiek in belangrijke mate over zichzelf uitgeroepen, zodat hij zich daarover niet kan beklagen;
Gaat niet om een feitelijke aantijging, maar om een negatief waardeoordeel;
Gaat het om een beargumenteerde veronderstelling? Hof: ja, dan niet onrechtmatig;
Gaat het om een feitelijke aantijging of om het aan de orde stellen van een vraag?
Feitelijke aantijgingen moeten voldoende steun vinden in het beschikbare feitenmateriaal;
Is beschuldiging zeer diffamerend?
Zijn de grenzen van het maatschappelijk betamelijke overschreden?

Afweging van het zwaarwegende belang van de pers tegen het zwaarwegende privacybelang, NJ 1984, 801-803;
Een rechterlijk verbod vergt een nauwkeurige afweging van de belangen door de rechter en zal in dat kader ook een nauwkeurig onderzoek naar de proportionaliteit van het opgelegde verbod moeten plaatsvinden;

Of de journalist zijn beroep behoorlijk uitoefent is door het EHRM als afwegingsfactor aanvaard.
‘Afblokken’ van een persoon die door andere factoren herkenbaar is, kan een persoon criminaliseren. Het kan het dus erger maken. Daarmee is ook de praktijk van de Nederlandse pers om verdachten met initialen aan te duiden en met afgeblokte portretten te laten zien, sterk gerelativeerd;
Ondanks dat kan er een privacyschending;

when one says that "I was born gay" that is only an excuse for not dealing with the sexual feelings that one encounters with the same sex.

In order to become gay, one has to open the door of gayness.

Refraim from the devil and it will flee from you.

Now I have no problem with people being gay, because we are all God's children. We must in-brace the gay individual as a human being in need of prayer and knowledge.

They are just looking for love just like everyone but choose to deal with their own sex because it makes it easier to understand.

However, When a man has women and still choses to deal with men... I have a problem with that... let me explain myself as a young college educated young woman.

Number one.... the women should of seen the signs...but they choose to ignore them

Number two..... men like that should come out and be honest that they love mens but>> by the way, woman has butts too!!

Number three...imagine this...he was in one man's bum tonight, and then in the wife and then to the mistress... now if the mistress has another man.. and the wife has another man... " do we now get a cycle picture here" viruses are being spread because of men like this police officer.

I hope Justice is applied for taking the life of an innocent man.

everyone knows that C was gay. ( normal)
everyone did not know that the police officer was gay..only the gay ones knew ..especially the ones he was giving his butt too!!

Justice is on its way... what happens in the dark always comes to light.

RIP christian.

I've always suspected that SXM is not a reading society and by god it has been sadly confirmed. We are quite obviously not only talking ebonics but writing it as well. There is a saying better to have people think that you're stupid than to open your mouth or, in this case let you fingers do the talking and remove all doubt. The level of stupidity in some of these messages are appalling. Now on to the subject at hand. It's sad to see some people making light of such a terrible situation but remember it rains not only on the house of one man but at some point in time unless we are very lucky on our own house as well. Crime knows no cla*s, color, gender or financial status so remember. RIP Christian

The people here in sxm who made stupid comments and judging people for what or whom they are doesn't make any sense. I hate the fact that people who posted thier comments and have the bravery to let other people view thier senseless thoughts and ideas about people knowing that in their hearts they are doing the same sinful act wether you are gay , striaght , bi or on the DT (down low) I think u guys need look in a mirrow and think hard before you open your mouth for other people to hear or laugh at you.Be honest with your comments and don't be afriad to feel good about it.I know a lot of you guys/women out there hiding in the closet(facts) and still want to make senseless comments to make people believe that you all are not hiding in the closet.Wake up my friends ,watch what you have accomplish during the day and ask god for guidiance and strenght rather than judging others , leave that to the MAN ABOVE. Remmber the man above know everything about you other than we human beings on earth, so be good to each other.

It is extremely shameful reading all of these comments. It seems as though most of the people on here never made it past the sixth grade and it would not surprise me if they had trouble spelling their own names. Some of those coming on here telling others that their grammar is bad, while at the same time having errors in their comments, are just as bad as the rest, if not worse. It is really pitiful seeing how the people of Sint Maarten think. Like someone said, you may think that you are only speaking to other Sint Maarteners and that your grammar and punctuation does not matter, but what happens when an outsider decides to come in and see what is happening on the island and ends up reading this rubbish? Those going around spreading rumors and giving out people's personal information need to get a taste of their own medicine. I wonder how they would feel if someone falsely accused them of being gay (which is not a crime, contrary to what many believe). Saying you are college educated when your writing screams high school educated is also very comical in and of itself, saying that being gay is "opening the door of gayness". That is the most ignorant and disturbing comments on here. It shows that even though you fancy yourself as being "college educated", you have absolutely no knowledge on what you speak on. It seems that it will only get worse before it gets better, which is very sad. And to think that these are mostly adults writing like children and then being the same ones complaining that the youth of today on Sint Maarten are the ones that are giving the island a bad name. Looking at how they write, it is no surprise that the kids aren't learning anything from their elders when the elders are half as smart as they make themselves out to be. It doesn't make any sense going further. It won't change anything. I'm just highly disappointed in my island and its residents. Hopefully there are a few bright spots, but before you can reach them, you have to dig through an enormous pile of rubbish. And quite frankly, I don't blame anyone if they give up before they reach the people with potential.

"People who make comments about spelling and education can't read the pain and tears and anger .Maybe they cant feel or maybe the crime has not yet touch them."
What makes you think that because people choose to make a point about education that they can't read the pain, tears and anger? So do you really believe that those who only come on here to make comments about how so and so is gay and how this one is sleeping with that one, are trying to make their pain, tears and anger felt? Or is it just another excuse? We need to stop making excuses for this despicable display of ignorance. Everyone has already experienced a tragedy in their respective lives, and not because they choose write in correct english means that they have not felt what the people close to the deceased are feeling. The least they can do is use correct English when writing about this man who died tragically, instead they choose to come here and spew this hatred and ignorance for which the island has become known. Saying you are a "sxm person" and excusing this, is showing that the mentality that has taken over Sint Maarten will never leave because people choose to forgive "little" things such as bad spelling. Without education nothing can be achieved. Without education, Sint Maarten can not experience the change that is very much needed. And accepting bad grammar shows that education does not matter anymore, which is really a shame. Expressing your tears, pain and anger with correct spelling will more likely help you get your point across in the long run, expressing those same feelings with fourth grade spelling will get you disregarded, which is something the island can not afford.

To the people of st.marten.
I am 22 years of age and i am a born st.maartener. i can't believe that this is how our friendly island turned out to be. i left st.maarten last year august and since den it has been nothing but crime, murders and deaths. answer this question for me, you fighting to become a independant country right? GOOD WAY OF SHOWING IT. i've got blood from my eyes and tears from my heart for my good friend christion. a humble guy with a smile as big a his heart. but what hurts is to see that a officer who's job is to surve and protect would d such cruilty to our own. that officer is not even from st.maarten so he won't know the pain some families have when they heard he took their child's life away from him. shame on him but the real issue is that st.maarten witch i love dealry should stand united and not devided. opem your eyes and see that your digging your own grave.
