And while the PUP's Julius Espat was playing nice with police today on this initiative, back in December 2017, when he was part of the Opposition Party, he was hypercritical of the department.
While he was in the House of Representatives, he commented on a tire fire incident from that month, and he said quote, "We have a serious problem in our police force as I see it… In the eyes of the Cayo South constituency, the police officers are lacking in their ability to protect them."
So, since Cotton Tree is a part of that constituency, we asked the Commissioner about that criticism. Here's how he responded to that one:
Espat was notably absent today and told us he was " in the field trying to fix rural roads."
