Min­is­ter of Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty Roger Alexan­der yes­ter­day re­mained silent on the killing of 11-month-old Jay­den Sut­ton and his fa­ther Joseph Sut­ton, even as the State of Emer­gency (SoE) con­tin­ues.

The two were shot and killed at their St James home around 1 am on Tues­day, push­ing the na­tion­al mur­der toll to 89. A sep­a­rate killing in Laven­tille ear­ly Wednes­day morn­ing has since raised the fig­ure to 90.

The deaths have sparked out­rage on so­cial me­dia, with many ques­tion­ing the Gov­ern­ment’s in­ac­tion amid es­ca­lat­ing vi­o­lence.
