So, is Eastern Division South making interventions to ensure that there are no retaliations for "Shiney", "Gambis", and now Troy Cole? That's what we asked, and Commander Chester Williams said that he and his team have been doing everything they can to reason with the key players connected to these men. Here's how he explained his conversations with them:

ACP Chester Williams- OC, Eastern South Division
"We do our utmost best to see how best we can reach out to these people because violence is not the answer. If one person is killed, to go and kill another will not solve the problem, it will make the situation worse. As I've said to the crowd from George Street if you love Shiny so much, if his life is worth something to you; now that he has passed on, the right thing for them to do is to assist his parents in raising his 10 children that he has left behind. Send them to school, help them get an education, that will be special to him than to be out there trying to kill in his name; and I want to say the same for those who are affiliated with Keon Williams. We understand their pain, when you lose someone it is a terrible thing but to go out and kill in the name of someone who has died will never ever bring peace, it will make matters worse and so yes, we will continue to do our intervention, myself and Ms. Finnegan. But I will tell you that we can only do so much and there will come a time when the talking will have to stop and those who constantly want to be out there to commit criminal acts will have to feel the wrath of the police. When I say that I do not want to be misquoted, let me define what that means. It simply means that the police will be out there in full force targeting those persons who are constantly trailing or lurking around, looking for people to shoot or to kill; we will be after them. It does not mean that we will pursue them in any criminal way, i.e., to physically abuse them. There's s million ways to skin a cat and we're going to do it in a way that is consistent with the law."
