Developing Story: Major Sex Abuse Case Exploding in Dominica


Update 10:00pm EST:

We're sure you've noticed that we pulled the updates earlier on this ongoing investigation of the alleged case of abuse of a minor in Dominica. We made a decision to limit coverage on this developing story to a few known facts surrounding the case, for good reason. The case has not been adjudicated and therefore, we have chosen to limit exposure so as not to prejudice its integrity. Too much information in the public domain could potentially impact negatively on the progress of the investigation. Furthermore, as sordid as the details of this case is, we do not want to mire ourselves in the salaciousness of it.

What is known at this point is that a report has been made to the police on the possible abuse of a 14-year old minor. Implicated in this is a well-known business man, a government minister and a member of the opposition. Police sources have confirmed to us the existence of the report. The business man and the government minister are accused of having contact of a sexual nature with the minor; the member of the opposition has not been accused or implicated in any illegal or criminal activity relating to this case. Our contact within the government has corroborated the reports we have received from the police.

As of this update, the case and subsequent investigations remain active. Contrary to reports circulating in social media, we do not have evidence to suggest that there has been a payout of hush money, although considering who the primary individuals involved are, it would not be far-fetched to believe propositions of that nature have occurred. Nor do we have evidence to corroborate allegations of a cover up, destruction of evidence, and threats against family members. However this case unfolds, it will be a big story in Dominica. The authorities would be best advised to handle this fairly and judiciously. This cannot be swept under the rug. We do find it peculiar, however, that this has surfaced on the eve of a pending case in the courts. That too we're keeping an eye on.

We can assure you that we are not shying away from this; we're simply doing our part in ensuring that prosecution of this and other similar developing cases are adjudicated without prejudice. We will inform you of further developments as they arise.
