The two Layou brothers who were the subject of a police wanted person bulletin have been charged with shooting a fellow resident of the Central Leeward town.

As part of their bail conditions, Prosecutor Police Constable Corlene Samuel asked the Kingstown Magistrate’s court on Thursday to order the men to report periodically to police.

She, however, asked the court not to disclose the police station to which the men would report, because of what she said was an on-going feud in the Central Leeward town.

      And what is the cause of their being thugs. Thes two young men weren’t born thugs so what happened to them? Poverty? Poor education? Idleness? Unemployment? Poor parenting? Poor local environment? Legacy of slavery?

      And don’t say all these things.

      Exactly how and why are some people turned into thugs and others into law abiding and decent people.
