Flowers. Today he said he wishes the gang figure would, quote, "remain in prison forever" for his involvement with a lurid sex video where he is allegedly seen forcing a woman and a male to engage in a sex act.
When Flowers appeared in court yesterday he said police were violating his constitutional rights by first detaining him under the southside SOE, and then, after a month of that, taking him back to court and charging him for "procuring defilement of a person by threat" - for which he has been remanded.
Today, the Commissioner had no apologies to make:
Chester Williams - Commissioner of Police
"I guess the world saw the activity that Big Tom was involved in and I don't think that anyone in their right mind is going to sympathize with him at this time. He know exactly what he got into when he forced by way of threat two individual to perform some sexual act, that is no small crime that he had committed and so what we did under the SOE was send him to prison while the investigators continue to investigate to gather evidence on him that we can charge and so that the time that he was in prison, we were able to do some work, gather the relevant evidence against him and so they charges were laid against him and he appeared before the court on Tuesday or Wednesday. He has since pleaded not guilty and he court remanded him rightfully into custody. He should remain in prison forever as far as I'm concerned."
Jules Vasquez
"Sir but he's claiming an abuse of process, he's a citizen...."
Chester Williams
"The person he forced into sexual act can make credence too, many claims."
Jules Vasquez
"But the fact is sir that they aren't making claim..."
Chester Williams
"Mr. Vasquez are you sympathizing with him?"
Jules Vasquez
"I am not sir, but citizens have right."
Chester Williams
"So, don't you think the young lady and young man have right too? To engage in sexual activity with persons of their choice and not to be cohered of threatened to engage in sexual activity with somebody against their will. They have rights too."
