WELCOME TO THE INTERNET - SEPARATING FACT FROM FICTION

Over the pass few weeks there has been a concerted effort on several fronts to report real and fictitious crime in Anguilla across the internet. One of our editors for example had to contact a UK news agency last week who was reporting that Warrington Phillips had killed his wife in Anguilla, without any regard for the fact that the crime they were reporting was in-fact Nevis's first murder of the year.

The following is a letter published by Caribbeannetnews.com on Wednesday, March 28, 2007   

Title: Anguilla - what is happening to this lovely island?


"Dear Sir:

I was visiting my sister in Anguilla March 6-13. During that time, there were two robberies in the Cul de Sac area of Blowing Point. One woman was threatened with rape. I have seen no news on this at all and am wondering why? Though one of the victims thought she recognized the robbers, the police did not act (at least while I was there). My sister lives in that area and I am concerned for her safety.

In addition, I heard there had been a murder in the East Shoal Bay area in February.

What has happening to this lovely island? There never seems to be any news about incidents of this sort(certainly not on Anguillanews.ai)and I suspect the government doesn't want the word out that crime (aside from drugs) has come to the island. Not good for tourism.

This really concerns me, and should concern everyone who goes to this island.

Angela Fowler"
