Keyren and Nora

By Abdulmajeed K Nunez

Keyren kills but police said no murder�
Dickie said she ought not to have been charged
But instead brought up on a coroner's inquest
What about all the police reports for future reference?
She has since been charged for manslaughter
Weh happen to the human rights lawyers?
This sister ought not to be dragged through the courts in this manner
This is the same thing that they have done to Ms Nora
For allegedly lighting a police officer afire
Some want to deny that she had been an expecting mother

Nora Parham was sentenced to execution
In the history of Belize she was the first recorded woman
Despite being constantly beaten by the policeman
She was handed the book for killing the Queen's man
Was it because he was in uniform?
They needed to send a message the citizens to conform
They were afraid burning police officers became the norm

Keyren needs to go before a coroner's inquest
Women in the military should be in protest
The commandant should have written the GG already
Begging on behalf of his officer for clemency
Perhaps he does not want the preservation of the country
Nor the preservation of national security
By making sure that there is a policy
Protecting women in our security forces from gang rape
All should be chastised who participated
This type of behaviour must not be tolerated

Nora Parham must be exonerated
Her family should be compensated
Just as the charges against Keyren should be retracted
The women's Department should be agitating
I am yet to see a press release from the ministry of human development
What about the Bench and Bar or is this inconvenient?
Why have the opposition or the VIP not made a statement?
This proves the state is decadent
This was done for public appeasement
But it is a black eye on the judiciary and the Police Department
