Jamaican Affairs: Shields Talks Jamaican Policing at NYC's Schomburg Center

Statistics obtained from the Jamaica Gleaner show that in 2017, with more than 1,600 murders, Jamaica recorded one of the highest crime rates in the world. 

The Caribbean International (CIN) 14th Annual Lecture  welcomes Mark Shields, former Deputy Commissioner of Police in Jamaica and former Detective Chief Superintendent of Scotland Yard, who will provide an honest assessment on if the government’s plans to solve crime in Jamiaca will be enough. 

The CIN reception will begin at 5:30pm, the program will begin at 6:30pm.
