SO HE HAVE CURSE ON HIM FOR HITTING HIS MOM AND NOW STABBING PPL KIDS. SUPPOSE OF OF THOSE KIDS HAD DIED IN THE STABBING? I DONT EVEN WAN TO THINK WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPEN.

BEFORE IT GET TO HAT, WHY NOT SEND HIM JAMAICA WHERE I GUESS THEY HAVE CENTER FOR HIM THERE.

THEY ALWAYS WAITING FOR SOMETHING BAD TO HAPPEN FOR THEM TO SO CALL DO SOMETHING. DAM

YES SEND HIM TO JAMAICA, AS THESE CHILDREN ARE JUST DOWNRIGHT BAD.

HERE IS WHERE THE BIBLE WORDS COME TO Pa*s, SPARE NOT THE ROD AND SPOIL THE CHILD,
I PREFER THE POLICE LOCK ME UP FOR BURSTING IN MY SON A$$ BEFORE, HE IS PICKED UP FOR THIEFING, AND STABBING.

POLICE STOP....STOP...TELLING CHILDREN THAT THEIR PARENTS CAN'T BEAT THEM.

he is responsible for his actions. So are the authorities for not having provisions to help these troubled teens. We need a juvenile center and a crazy house. We got whore house, drug house, casino's and all kinda house but we aint got no crazy house.

Keep this guy somewhere under serious supervision, before he don't hurt somebody bad.It could have deen worse.

Well well Well I was stand at the Milton Peters school today.
And I happend to be wachting the bus drivers.
Well there is this one particular bus that got my attendtion. I believe the drive is a middle age man from Jamaica or some other country. and he was playing soem real volgar music very very loud.
The music was only foul language. and the children getting on to the bus was like wild animals.
I believe such person should not be a school bus driver

MR DUNCAN WE NEED TO HEAR FROM YOU A YOUNG DONKEY ON THE LOOSE AND WE DON.T HAVE NO STABLE HERE.

I agree with Hmm, it's been awhile now that this bus driver plays volgar music and very loud. I made complaints already but guess what nothing has been done. If the bus driver dont show respect guess what the children going to do. We have to start from the top and work our way down. That bus driver needs to get his act together or replace him. Check tomorrow you going to hear the same volgar music and you will know who we are talking about.

This is really sickening. This is an incident that could have been avoided if proper measures were taken last year.

I agree with the suggestions to send him back to Jamaica and let him await his travel plans to the USA from there. He is not or should not be our problem. He is just a menace to society.

Sickening for real.What happens if he hurts one of the other kids in foster care or even his foster parents? If he could damage his birth mother like that, what would he not do to a stranger?????

Send him home.

Release him to the family of those children he stabbed. This youngster has a criminal mind and fears neither God nor man. If he could break his own mother’s jaw, then he is beyond control. Again, this damned justice system of ours has failed us. We do not have facilities for his kind and as such he should have been shipped out to his native country since last year. He is a menace to society and everyone on this island is in danger as long as he is allowed to stay here. Put his behind in Pt. Blanche until his mother comes up with a one-way ticket to J/A. There are people locked up in prison who have done far less than him. He is a criminal and treat him as such. Damned foolishness in this place! I bet if it was the prosecutor's child he had stabbed, they would have locked him up somewhere and thrown away the key for good.

This individual is a serious menace to society, first a full psychiatric evaluation, then lock him up in a facility for a long time, if you p***y foot around he will end up pulling the trigger on one if not more people, he has a taste for violence and that will not go away, he must be tried as an adult if found to be in full possesion of his senses.

again: the friendly island....

Since he is acting like an animal, he should be treated like one. A solid old time cut a*s would straighten him up but no, the authorities say you cannot put your hands on your child so this is the end result. Had he broken my wife's jaw he would still be looking for his hand.

Hmmm. he is going to the US to his father... Probably soon he will join a gang over there in gangland.
Before he is 20 years old he will be dead or in jail...

first let me ask what so special about kevon that he cannot be held in police cell? what happen if one of those kids was dead? ,do u honestly think he will stay in a Drug Rehab Center?
let us look at his track (1) he broke his mother jaw , she carried him for nine months and he shows no respect , (2) his behaviour at school then a stabbing on the school bus ,
what next a shooting at the school ?
he is no different from all the young boys from dutch quarter and st peters that are held for days in the police cell until their parent get a lawyer to help then ..

Send him on a oneway ticket back to Jamaica and let the autorties there know he will be arriving and the reason for his deportation.

Let them take care of him. He is not our issue.

Shoot the bastard

@HMM

WHAT YOU SAY IS CORRECT.

MRS RHODA NEED TO DISGUISE HERSELF, AND HANG OUT AROUND THE SCHOOLS, AND I KNOW, SHE WILL RIPP THEM A NEW A$$.

IT IS WRONG WEHAT IS GOING ON, AND THIS VULGAR MUSIC IS WHAT HYPES THE CHILDREN UP, AND COMMIT CRIMES.

BUS DRIVERS SHOULD ACT LIKE PARENTS.

THIS PARTICULAR ONE, NEED TO GO BURN A COAL KEEL
HE SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING PEOPLE CHILDREN.

BUT THEN AGAIN, YOU HAVE TO FIND OUT WHO IS WORKING FOR, BECAUSE APPARENTLY THE BUS BELONGS TO A BIG SHOT.

There is a next side of story he beat a female student on the bus the Friday before the student was also taken to the medical center for treatment. This guy is a crack head and everyone is in danger, imagine not even on a school bus your not safe. All these poeple bringing a lot of baggage from their country here and we must get the children into our compulsory education system. What mess we into.

So a 15 yr old cannot be kept behind bars, but certain circumstances warrants this kind of punishment. If you are old enough to inflict harm on another person, you are old enough to go to jail. Stabbing someone isn't a pity crime. 
The authorities needs to wake and realize that this young man is a criminal and should be treated as such. If no disciplinery action is taken and he is allow to go to his father when the time comes, we can only imagine the chaos he will bring to the people who he comes in contact with. 

All who have children riding the school busses should get together and protest. What you telling me for? I cannot do anything but read what you all are saying here. Get up off your arses and go protect your children. It only take one to start a protest march. You all prefer to go to the Casino at lunch time than pick up the children. Take a look in the mirrow today.

Our local boys as young as 14 can be locked up in police cells if they are caught with an ounce of marijuana bush on them or if they are SUSPECTED of doing something for which the police has zero proof. Yet, this violent and would be murderer from J/A is too good to go in those same cells? Well sa! We've gone from the friendly island to the island of coenoe-moenoes (damn fools).
His mother reported him to the police for severely damaging her and the justice system allows him to be free. What happened to the articles in our criminal codes regarding serious bodily harm and what should be done in those cases? Did the justice system forget they exist? Some young school children fight and they are placed in jail for some time and get a conviction. If this Jamaican’s mother had broken his jaw, she would have been placed in jail. Why is the law being selectively used on this island?
To those who say send him to his father in the USA, guess what, once you had any criminal contact with the law anywhere, the USA does not accept you to enter or transit their country. We need to get though like the USA with our immigration laws.

What if KEVIN RUSSELL, when growing up without his father around, loved to play house and carry around a toy baby in a sling was just smiled upon and everyone acted like it was just the ways things were supposed to be?

So, what would have become of the KEVIN RUSSELL today at 15 years of age if his mother had disciplined him & corrected his rude behaviour while still a TODDLER instead of labelling it “as cute” because of the stupid idea that boys are little wild creatures?

Is now he a teenager you want to discipline him, madame?

What good is going to come out of him sending him at this age & way too late... to be with his father whom he probably does not even know, nor never communicated with?

The school/education system in SXM is screaming and dying for some serious help. Teachers are not teaching because they are way to busy with correcting the students. Some schools you cannot even call that them a school cause look in what kind of state they are etc etc...Government cannot be bothered with that..why you ask?? well their own kids are attending expensive private schools so what the hell they care if it is not affecting them. I have never ever seen so many bunch of crooks and thieves as MP's in the world besides SXM who are filling their own (already full) pocket...people wake up and smell the coffee nobody cares certainly not this government......Real Sad

For the record, it was NA, William Marlin who started compulsary education here in St. Marten. Illegals and legals go can to school now and noone can stop them from entering the legal school system. What it boils down to, rude children who never knew what discipline is, making it hard for our legal school system. He felt great by opening the Charles Leopold Bell School in Cole bay. Right now that old school building is and has been invested with all kinds of insects droppings, Rats etc. William Marlin opened a can of worms and now UP/DP government has to deal with these problems at our schools. It ain't easy for our school managers either, trying to deal with the can of worms MP W. Marlin opened. He should call a meeting on what he started and Georgie boy should submit his 1991 questions to William Marlin. These things never happened in the past when attending school. What ?, going to school to hara*s others, for sure you ended up getting licks from your father/mother on the school grounds infront of other students. You think twice before playing or acting bad/rude again. Weapons? Never heard of them in the past during my school days. St. Maarten has really changed for the worst.

@ Hello

I don't care who started compulsary education.
Our NEW country could have stopped it.

Compulsary education if your parents are working, and paying taxes, and you are legally here.
But this is not the way it is done.

Every child that need compulsary education get a Godmaother
and a Godfather, when they are here, and then screw
our tax money.

If you go to the united states, you can get education, but
you have to pay for private schools.
Public schools require to see your last 3 years filing taxes
then they get in. Otherwise, consider sending them
learning unlimited.

To hello

Don't compare a few bad apples with the whole bunch. At the time compulsory education started it was necessary or required. You people need to get rid of this backward mentally and stop being discriminatory about legals and illegals because it doesn't matter when it comes to a child having an education.

TO KTM hello is right because this make more just keep coming out control .they made a commercial out of it send the children they can go school here now.it have so many children here with out parents you would not believe and then they don,t have space for the legal ones.what wrong with the parents working here and helping back home .st maarten is a dot and when the cake get to small dog eat dog same thing happen in st thomas how many people can fit on a rock.st thomas finish and st maarten on it,s way but still st maarten people must always stay humble.

@ we don't have no where to run.....
I'm trying to understand what you're trying to say but let me ask you this, whose fault is it that there is not enough schools to place children. Is it the illegal children? The government?

Criminality should not be acepted young or old. This level of violence needs to be addressed seriously. If the chap is not a dutch national then we should deport him. It is clear that his legal guardian on the island can not control him and it is only a matter of time before something else happens.

Conpulsary education I say no. It has caused many problems that is not worth it. If violent kids do not commit a serious crime it is virtually impossible to have them suspended, because of the compulsary education policy.

In my days if you wanted to play a bad man and be violent with weapons you were banned and your parents had to find a solution. No with todays policy the kids in the school system have to fair for their safety in school and in the school bus.

Why for just a few bad apples. Most parents that can refuse to allow their children on school buses. This is the cause of removing the power from the principles and school teachers to take action in having problem kids removed from the general school system.

If these kids have issues then they should be in a system for them that is equiped to deal with them.

Why should my child have to sit next a potential murderer when I paying for him or her to get a proper education.

The current management of the school system is making it almost impossible for the teachers to focus on teaching.

Lets stop putting the rotten apples next to our young people who just want to get a proper education.

Those that want a proper education will get the message that if you want to get aproper education you better get your act together and act as a normal human being.

Gone are the days when we had bus drivers like the late Tata (Mr. Brooks), when he tell you to sit and stop the noise , you think we could have tell him any thing all we had to do is shut and sit down and when we had respect for him and he took care of us like we were his children. 2 other bus drivers that were good and well respected were Doughy Fleming and the late Mr. Arrindell. You could have gone into scholls and discipline your child and dare that child to open their mouth to you,must less hit you back hahahah i have 4 children and they are all grown , they don't dare whisper a bad word around me,children will always be children , but if you do not bring them up of having respect and discipline then you get that. and again when we open our arms and take in all these people with different mentalities and they bring in their children with their customs this is what we get, God spare and bless our country St. Maarten and i pray it don't get like some of those islands around the place who are banned from the USA, we are still law abiding citizen.

PURE BULLs**t!!!!!!!!!!! I KNOW OF BOYS HIS AGE THAT WERE HELD IN JAIL FOR SOME OVER 20 DAYS FOR OFFENSES LESS THAN WHAT HE DID...ALL OF A SUDDEN HE IS A MINOR AND CANNOT BE HELD IN JAIL????? WHAT A HEAP OF BULLs**t!!!!!!!!!...HIS a*s NEEDS TO STAY IN JAIL UNTIL ARRANGEMENTS CAN BE MADE TO SEND HIM STATES WITH HIS FATHER....AND TRUST ME...WITH THE ROAD HE IS ON HE WONT MAKE IT LONG UP THERE UNLESS HIS FATHER HAS SOME SPECIAL SKILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!

This kid is a sick child, I was quite shock to learn that this was the same child that broke is mother's jaw. I was more amazed to learn that he returned to school, now look what happend. So my question is was is Voogdijraad suppose to do? Find a foster home for this kid? I know for sure he wouldn't be coming in my house. Yeah! get him to his father in the United States, cause he will end up in one of those prisons as portrayed on the documentaries on channel 3 "Lock Up Raw". He will be put up in those maximum security prison, which is nothing like the day camp of a prison we have here.

@ HELLO

It is better to let people think you are stupid rather than open your mouth and take away all doubts.
The root of Compulsory Education can be found in treaties signed by the Dutch Kingdom, which includes us. Over 20 years ago, St. Maarten had to implement it by Federal Decree, but kept p***y-footing with it until an ultimatum was given. It so happens that DP had imploded and a new government was there when the implementation date went into effect.
Stop shooting crap and go educate yourself before writing nonsense. We don't want the rest of the world to think that only idiots live on St. Maarten.
Furthermore, the issue here is a violent teenager and not compulsory education, special education, primary education, secondary education, or tertiary education.

hello you sound like another loose donkey maybe you his aunty.herman cain william implement a lot of things why you think he is the referee now.how come we have no coffee shop here selling weed thats holland main visits .
