The mother of the siblings who are seen in a viral video on social media being buried in a shallow grave have confirmed that they are her children. jamaicaobserver.com/latest-news/mo…

@JamaicaObserver I can't even fathom what I am reading. What is the story here?

@KneWKeeD @DailyLoud This is what video game addiction does to kids. Sleep deprivation probably tipped him over the edge. Why do parents give their kids these destructive devices? Smh

People saying 30 years is too much obviously aren't relating to the teacher being their parent. As someone whose parent(principal) got brutalized by a student while trying to snatch her bag from her office, 30 years a sounds about right. This is far worse coz the mission was not to get the console back, it was murder.

Florida teen who beat a female teacher unconscious after his Nintendo Switch video game was confiscated at school pleaded guilty to the shocking crime Monday and faces up to 30 years behind bars.

@LisaHannamp Nastiness is nastiness. There's still no excuse for not disposing of that tissue responsibly if you were that kind of person even if you had an accident. We see how people use public 🚻. These nasties spill, splat and go. We have a serious problem in Jamaica. Our 🚽 habits stink!

Just recently, a public-private collaboration — involving J Wray & Nephew, Ministry of Local Government and Community Development, and the Kingston and St Andrew Municipal Corporation — produced the renovation of Crab Circle. Is it that no bathroom facilities came with the building of stalls and renovation of the area? That seems a little strange if that were the case. We must acknowledge that certain spots have practical and sentimental value for purveying street food. At least in these areas, the Government must provide the vendors and customers with adequate infrastructural conveniences, including solar lighting to facilitate night-time vending. When we improve our locations it redounds to the benefit of everyone, as more customers will be attracted because they have peace of mind that the food is not only tasty, but hygienic.

Now, street food is everywhere, from the round robins to outside the 'Dance', to 'open car back rush hour box lunch. And do not forget the fruit man selling at traffic light fruits and large pots of breakfast porridge. Truthfully, I still enjoy stopping by the roadside to buy something to eat. Mind you, I don't just stop anywhere; I have to know you, see how you handle the food, and, most importantly, I have to see that there is a wash station with soap close by and proper hygienic amenities or else 'mi nah eat from yuh'.

Why you can't believe everything you see in the media these days. I really pray it's not them and this is not an intentional wild goose chase. Find them if they are alive. Where are the alerts on billboards and search parties? 🤦🏽‍♀️ #Wastingtime jamaicaobserver.com/news/a-step-cl…

All Americans should be horrified and outraged by the brazen terrorist attacks on Israel and the slaughter of innocent civilians. We grieve for those who died, pray for the safe return of those who’ve been held hostage, and stand squarely alongside our ally, Israel, as it dismantles Hamas. As we support Israel’s right to defend itself against terror, we must keep striving for a just and lasting peace for Israelis and Palestinians alike.

My heart pains me reading about the atrocities being committed by Hamas against civilian Israelite women in this current war. What happened to wars fought man to man? Misogynistic cowards and Rapists! theatlantic.com/international/… #rape

@JamaicaObserver "Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a woman scorned."

Leoda Bradshaw, the mother of one of Phillip Paulwell's children, is facing multiple charges in connection with the abduction and suspected murder of another of his intimate partners, 27-year-old Toshyna Patterson and her 10-month-old daughter Sarayah Paulwell, the police said on Friday. jamaicaobserver.com/news/sinister/

@Enezator Little Bo Peep. 😁

@hcassamba And on top of your loss. It might seem a molehill but when you're grieving, this can feel like a mountain, like violation. So sorry you had to experience this desecration of your son's crops ma'am. Livestock farmers have no regard for other people's property, I notice. Egregious!

What do you do when you wake up to about 30 cows in your yard and your lat so n's crops trampled?

@JamaicaObserver @mhdksafa I'm sure this child will never forget the feeling of being rejected in this fashion. Disgusting adult.

Ireland's gymnastics federation apologised Monday for allegedly racist treatment of a young black gymnast who was skipped by an official handing out medals to a row of girls last year. (Video: @mhdksafa) jamaicaobserver.com/latest-news/ir…

@JamaicaObserver Old people used to say 'show me your company and I tell you who you are.' Birds of a🪶 flock together. Did they have choice? Were they adults when they joined the gang & committed these heinous crimes? Criminals must be punished & they can't dictate how justice is to be served.

Klansman Gang leader Andre “Blackman” Bryan told Chief Justice Bryan Sykes on Tuesday that his co-convicts should have been freed as they were all under his influence to commit heinous crimes including murder and arson. jamaicaobserver.com/latest-news/kl…
