January 13, 2011, Kingston, Jamaica-Jamaicans for Justice (JFJ) is appalled by at least one aspect of the reality behind the recently released official police crime statistics for 2010. The statistics for police fatal shootings showed a total of 309 which represents an increase of 8 over the 301 total fatal shootings reported up to the 12th December 2010. This figure is almost 20% higher than the total of 263 fatal police shootings in 2009. This total does not include the (at least) 73 persons killed during the Tivoli ‘Incursion’.
309 persons killed by police in one year is an appalling figure by itself. Add to that figure the 2 persons killed by Soldiers and the ‘official’ Tivoli figure of 73 and we arrive at a total of ALMOST 400 persons who were shot and killed by our Security Forces in 2010. This effectively means that MORE THAN 20% of the killings in Jamaica last year occurred at the hands of the Security Forces.
MORE THAN ONE IN FIVE Jamaicans who died violently last year died at the hands of the State.

From my archive... the barrel of a soldier's rifle. This is Andersonstown in Northern Ireland on 23 October 1976, where disturbances and rioting took place frequently. According to my notes, I used an RE Auto-Topcor f1.8 lens on a Topcon RE Super 35mm camera. The film was Kodak Kodacolor, and although I say it myself, this is one of my best images from the time.
There's more material from the same era here.
