Wonderful News, Cynde! Thanks for letting us know some good news here! My hat goes off to the Police Chief and it's police force

Cynde, thanks for the very important, informative post. Glad to see things are going in the right direction. It does sadden me though that the age of the people being caught are so young.

Dear Fellow BTers, Anyone consider a mass emailing to the new Police Chief to express our appreciation. Most of us were quick to condemn the lack of action by the police lately, maybe we should be just as vocal with our praise (positive reinforcement). Just a thought. Best regards, Jack.

I want to say two things about this

The nice thing about the new Chief is he is not from Bonaire - no family connections (maybe). They have needed someone who will back up the force and let them do their jobs. Even so Bonaire is small it is easy to hide and some people are affraid to say anything least they be the next person who might be robbed.

Jack, emailing the police chief is a good idea. Do you have an email address for him?

Yep, and it's a good thing they catch these criminals.

That is very good news indeed. Does this mean that we now have a place to detain juveniles? It has been my understanding that much of the problem with cracking down on crimes perpetrated by kids has been due to the fact that there is/was no suitable detention facility for them, and that therefore they are/were never detained...

Most excellent - hope this trend continues. Kudos to the new guy...

Harrie, I asked about the Hato situation, they had no news to report on that

We heartily agree with Jack and Cynde: the new police chief needs to know that the tourist community is aware of his good work and that we support it.

I wonder if there is contact info on Wowo di Bario? I was told they were instrumental in the resolution pertaining to Windsock. They visited me after the break in as I live nearby and also the victims were my clients. Thanks.

Today's Bonaire Reporter has 2 notes (one from the Editors and one from a householder who was burglarized) praising the island police for recent prompt and professional responses.
