Fol­low­ing this week­end's triple mur­der of Ani­cia James, her broth­er Anslem James, and, Mitchell Fran­cois in Gua­napo, the Po­lice Ser­vice’s Deputy Com­mis­sion­er for Op­er­a­tions, DCP Curt Si­mon, is as­sur­ing the TTPS is work­ing as­sid­u­ous­ly to solve the crimes.

An­i­ca James was the moth­er of four chil­dren. Her six-year-old son was shot and wound­ed in the in­ci­dent.

Anslem James was her broth­er and Mitchell Fran­cois her com­mon law hus­band.

On Sun­day, DCP Si­mon and a team of of­fi­cers re­turned to the house where the killings oc­curred.

He says all ef­forts will be made to bring jus­tice to the fam­i­lies.

“Three per­sons have lost their lives and this is of great con­cern to us,” he told Guardian Me­dia.

“We wish to as­sure that we will leave no stone un­turned in … this in­ves­ti­ga­tion, with the view of ap­pre­hend­ing and de­tain­ing, ar­rest­ing and charg­ing the per­pe­tra­tors,” he as­sert­ed.

DCP Si­mon ac­knowl­edged that mur­ders are still preva­lent—even dur­ing the cur­rent State of Emer­gency.

He says the TTPS will con­tin­ue to use all its avail­able re­sources to ad­dress this.

“We know of the pub­lic’s con­cerns dur­ing this SoE—that we are still hav­ing these shoot­ings and mur­ders,” he not­ed.

Res­i­dents in the Gua­napo area ex­pressed their con­cern about the po­lice re­sponse time.

They al­so are wor­ried about the pos­si­bil­i­ty of es­ca­lat­ing gun vi­o­lence fol­low­ing the mur­ders.
