Goed zo.

Now please proceed with caution, don't mess up this case. You now have 10 extra days to interrogate him. Make sure all time limits and proper documentation are kept within the Law.

If you torture him, make sure it is done in a manner that leaves no marks or evidence ;-)

Jamaicans all around the world talking about this mess ...
America open doors for Jamicans there are so many JA living in the US ...This crime is un acceptable I have problems sleeping thinking about it...I don't know if he is involved .



Listen if u do this heinous u cannot go back to Jamaica....

If this basterd is Guilty? Fry him..

Listen if u do this heinous crime u cannot go back to Jamaica.... ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) :-*

let us now stop withthe nationality bullsh....t he from jamaica but we cannot condemn all for one,it's man that commit crime not nationalities,and police h ave to do their work and bring the evidence against him remember again the holloway case hans mos was quick to arrest the jamaican securtity guards as suspects,so we need to thread with caution and start checking out the facts,there is plenty here that dont add up,robbing and then murdering the people .this one seem to have more ulterior motives.detectives need to check their evidence good...lets look at 48 hourss on t.v crimes are solved by forensics and investigation and our police force seem to lack both

If this guy had commited this crime in Jamaica police would not beat him they will kill his a....ss so lets get serious. We have very good policemen on st maarten. Search youtube for police killing in Jamaica and u will understand where i comimh from

EVERYBODY on this young man case without knowing what went on...That business partner of the victim should also be a suspect, i wasn't @ the crime seen but i can tell you that the victims knew their attacker (s) Robbery wasn't the motive ... it was a HIT do take a Rocket scientist to see this......these police need to give me this case let me fish out the people who was behind this....these investigators are too near sighted.....Not rolling out this suspect of knowing something are been involve in it but this is bigger than him.... I would love to know what the autopsy result said about the time of death.... SO CALL FRIEND said victims left his restaurant between 4 and 5 pm wednesday with 2 other friend who he didn't know and he don't know what went on after.....he calling him all day thrusday without getting him and only to turn up by his house friday morning and found them dead....something is not right......was there a force entry? lots of question to ask i just hope the police are looking into this closer than it seems...

Hmmm...Stiches - beating from police - hmm

One smart, well paid lawyer, and he's FREEEEEE

Don't even bother extending his detention. do us all a favor and hand his a** over to the USA

@str8talk
I second you. And I hope that the authorities conclude the same. Scientific crime detection here is not the norm. And the FBI should be asked for a**istance the earliest possible. This is not a crime to be solved by heresay. The crime area is not a common area. It is infested with harden criminal elements. There aren't any crime labs on the island, and this makes the investigation complicated. I say request the a**istance of the FBI. Cnn already carying footage of the happenings on St. Martin. I traveled on a ferry yesterday morning and overheard an American couple discussing the crime, and this is what the wife said to the husband " I hope this will not be another Holloway conclusion as has happen on Aruba. There are many subject matters to take into account, such as Organised Criminal activities in the area. The supposed other partner in the rum factory.

I agree @strtalk,
I have read and listened to the articles and the blogs.Now that pa**ions have lulled and people have started looking closer, I would like to highlight some facts. I am speaking from the position of a retired Scotland Yard detective. That man may participated but rest a**ure he is just a pawn in a bigger game. This will come out if the detectives take their time and do proper investigation. Instead of beating the man, place a plea deal and get to the Truth and the other players. There were bigger stakes than a watch or a few dollars. Turn your attention to those who would benefit from their deaths. The sudden rise in crime here points to some big shark who use these desperate young people to gain ill-gotten wealth. POLICE TAKE YOUR TIME AND MORE THAN YOU ARE LOOKING FOR MAY BE REVEALED.

This is the best I have ever seen
They might beat the Jamaican and then he died from the beating
And the root of all this still roaming
Who is behind this
Who is profiting from the kings money ????????????

These investigation suck,someone who doesn't no nothing about mr an mis. King aint just gonna kill them like that.it hav to b someone who is definately close to them...u hav to hav sum form of evidence on a murder case before accusing.I blieve the person is rite uderneath their eye an they pretendin they does see him.cauz money talk an bullshit walk.that's is y crime will never stop!!!Too Much brivery an it needs to stop ;-) :

You people full of f**kery.... excuse my language but what the hell you mean, you hide his face because of some damn stitches. My a**!!! Let me say something you guys think those f**king cops them Saints???? Hell the f**k NOOOOO!!!!!!! They hide his face cause they have something to hide like maybe for all we know this guy might not be the guy and because they not so sure they going to hide his face of course.... In that way his reputation is not ruined so much. I really don't understand this case but something is wrong with it and it have something more big to do with it!!!! This story sounds like a set up!!!!! And someone big is involved. BECAUSE IF THE f**kING COPS DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT THIS MURDER CASE WAS NOT A DAMN ROBBERY BUT A f**kING MOTIVE TO KILL... EVEN I AS A DAMN CITIZEN CAN FIGURE THAT SHIT OUT!! You want to tell me that is guy is f**king Hercules, that he going tie up two grown a** people down like that. And not to say they tiny people the damn man was a big a** man and this guy with he average size going to take two people down like that. CHUPPPSSS!!!!!!!!!!! And another thing if they want to rob them then why they kill them in such a matter ( such a brutal death) if it was only robbery??????? huh?? Those guys went there to kill these people and for what only the guilty and Jah knows.... May this whole shit is a set up or maybe this guy was set up or maybe this guy guilty but that's still means that someone else is behind him for sure. Maybe he get good money to take these 2 people down.... I say you f**king cops need to do your job accurately before jumping to conclusions!!! Cause who knows maybe you might even have the wrong f**king guy for all we know and decide hell let we just put the blame on this security guy just like what happened in ARUBA WITH NATHALIE HOLLOWAY STORY,,,, WHEN THEY PUT THE BLAME ON THE 2 JAMAICAN SECURITY GUARDS.....

You all are insane . Two nice people are dead bc of some selfish sick people and alot of people are hurting for their loss! The kings were not into anything any illegal. They had enough money to not to do anything. Mike just enjoyed helping people be sucesseful and supported them. Some horrible people did a horric crime i try not to think about what an animal could do that to another human being uncluding mike and thelma. he must not have known them outherwise he would have been kind to them

And have visited aruba and felt very unsafe. Will never go back there either! Just rememeber the aloe man on the beach asking if i needed weed and trying to rub aloe on my back and had to get him to leave me alone!

I have a strange feeling about this case. The moment i heard that police got a suspect, i became suspicious. I have a very strong feeling something is not right. Usually when i feel so strong about something....it turns out to be right. I believe in innocent until proven guilty. I don't believe police have enough evidence to hold this guy. Sorry but we got corruption in sxm and i don't believe nothing the government or police say without proper evidence and facts.

Sxm people hear suspect and everyone is mad with him. They are more mad that he is a foreigner rather than the crime that have been committed. I believe in justice and i want to be sure this man committed this crime before condeming him. The police have not proven anything to me and i still got that strange feeling.

Snm news recieve information that the prosecuter office order to cover up his face to hide the sticthes. Please come on. Don't you think something like that should be check before you print it. These things are just to make news but you do not think how negative this can result.. Something like that should be check. Not just put it up to cause confusion. And you know you are. If you are a real journalist you should have ethics.

@ SC if you are from the USA then you have no right to judge the caribbean islands. Americans brutally kill each other everyday by the hundreds and the crime rate is a million times worse compared to places like aruba and st maarten. Even in big cities in the us you just can't walk or drive into any area because you're at high risk of being robbed or shot to death.

Team Holland and our Local men in blue, I am so damn proud of you. WE don’t need America’s a**istant for this case. This case is already SOLVED. Our boys are just gathering the missing pieces to add to the story. We do appreciate the information on how this couple lived their lives in the US and what could anyone’s motive be to murder or have this couple murdered.
“AMERICA” we really do appreciate all the help you guys are giving us but our men knows exactly what they are dealing with and will carry this investigation out as professional as they can. However your law of DEATH SENTENCE in this case would be very much appreciated.
Furthermore, He who committed this crime is a cold blooded killer and in most cases already committed this same type of crime in his past it might not be on SXM but am sure that he’s a criminal back in his YARD of origin. Start by involving the Jamaican authorities gather as much information on this guy and I will advice the SXM police force to start opening all the unsolved high rated crime files.
To SXM, we’re not talking about gunshot wounds here, if they were killed by gunshot wounds it would make the case harder to solve especial if there are no witnesses and or no evidence. We’re talking about 2 murders committed with a knife. If this suspect sliced the first victim neck with a knife he could have done the complete crime all by himself. Am not excluding more suspects but someone must have given the killer access to the condo and that same person is who informed the killer that the couple were wealthy people maybe a co worker of him who works at the condominium in this case maybe the cleaner bc he/ she are the only ones who can enter the unites . I must also include that this killer is not a professional thief or a murderer bc he left way too many traces and evidence, so him been hired as a hit man am been forced to start exclude. This CSI and Snapped guys damn I love this show lollll.

Hope they dont smoke us out because of this...over one million people died in Irag to justify the hunt for, Bin Laden sorry Saddams terrorism of ma** destruction...
And the heroin export of Aghanistan hardly suffered a dent...

Sounds like another case of , if you suck my d... i wont pay your rent...So who are we gonna call to really solve this, because these official a**umption just dont compute and it smells real fishy.
Do we really expect only legal vacation and fun in sun or is there a logical chance of an intrigueing scenario of some pirates of the caribbean adventure gone sour?
Nash Bridges or Colombo? Maybe Johnny Depp?

Well folks, seems like back to the canefieldibuss with a cutlasibuss and work till we arsibuss.
I for sure wont like to get caught stranded down that lonely highway in the mississpi valley with a flat tire after dark.

Poor ting the Jamaican is already tried and sentence by all Sxm big mouth **tches who can't even cook and clean a house . That is all u ppl good for , that's why so much different nationality is here pure sheep all u be . Go to school from the age of 4 until 21 and all they can do is sell guinep by the road , what a shame .you are all full of shit,don't blame the man blame our hungry immigration the let them in here for $400 kmft

Tried and sentence, you talk shit. All you damned Jamaicans full of crap. I just read that in Jamaica girls from 8 years and up got raped. Shame on you all. Children there don't even get a chance to go school but get raped or they find them dead on the road side. The British should invade your country and get some discipline in all your backside.

Don't you people have any dignity at all? Your comments are insane and judgemental. A SUSPECT has been arrested, not the MURDERER. If police don't have a suspect they are a waste, when they do its a set up, for goodness sake is it ever GOOD ENOUGH. For all americans who say they will never come back to Aruba or St. Maarten, i have two words for you, UNSOLVED MYSTERIES. When americans talk shit like that i wonder what the hell they are thinking. EVERY so many seconds someone is raped, killed in AMERICA. Yes we do need tourist to come and spend their monies here, but please don't do as if nothing happens in the USA, as a matter of fact it happens like i mentioned above in seconds and is as horrific or even more horrific than what happend to the KINGS. I hope those responsible would be brought to justice soon, and may the KINGS rest in peace.

Sorry, American citizens.
This is not American territory and the local laws apply! Period! And it is the same when you travel the French, German, Swiss, Dutch or Swedish territory, to name a few.
FBI is only allowed to participate (in an a**istance or consulting role) if explicitly invited for a**istance by the authorities here. However, there should not be any doubt that a professional exchange of information with the FBI is possible and most likely has happened already. And that is it, period!

The investigation is still in progress. If it takes longer than you or anyone likes, it is not because of incompetence of the law enforcement agencies; it most likely will be because of complication of the case. Don’t a**ume that this is a simple robbery.

To all:
ANY FORM OF EXCHANGE AND EXPRESSIONS OF ANIMOSITY OR DISLIKE OF PEOPLE OF OTHER CULTURE OR BACKGROUND DOESN’T BELONG IN A CALL FOR OBJECTIVE AND EQUAL JUSTICE FOR ALL

What about the girl that got electrocuted by her possessive, jealous, guyanese boyfriend who is an electrician?! That was a CLEAR case of premeditated murder to EVERYONE on St Maarten but the police NEVER arrested the boyfriend that claimed Latoya Bryson was using a doctored curling iron while she was in the shower or when she got out of the shower while still being wet and naked with a wet hair on a wet bathroom floor. The lead detective in that case after botching the case requested that her superior to remove her from the case when she [the detective] realized that she came to a wrong quick conclusion in the case and the family did not accept her "professional" official report that the electrocution was accidental. Latoya's family requested a meeting with the head of the detective department to complain against the lead detective's findings and handling of the case. The head of the detective department told the family during their meeting that the lead detective came to her (detective head) earlier that same morning and requested to be taken off of Latoya's case, which the head of the detective department told the family was strange that the lead detective met with her (detective head) earlier that same morning before the family's meeting to request to be taken off a case. The head of the detective department said she found it strange because detectives don't ever ask to be taken off a case but she still granted the request and put a new lead detective on the case. The first lead detective said it was accidental because Latoya's boyfriend was emotional & crying saying how much he loved her. Up to this day the police department and prosecutor in charge of Latoya's case have not officially closed that case as yet. The boyfriend should have been arrested by the first lead detective but when that first detective realized she made major mistakes she asked to be removed and was GRANTED her requested to be removed from the case by her superior. That made it even more difficult for the new lead detective to come to the clear conclusion that the electrocution was premeditated by the boyfriend because now all the evidence at the scene was not collected nor looked at with an objective point of view because the first lead detective determined it was an accident from the beginning before processing the evidence objectively because the boyfriend put on a good "grieving" show. Now the prosecutor would have a difficult task arguing the case in court because the detective department botched the case so the prosecutor in charge of Latoya's case is afraid of losing the case in court so up to this day the prosecutor has not filed an arrest warrant or brought murder charges against the boyfriend. Keep in mind that Latoya was electrocuted in a clear case of premeditated murder on November 1, 2011 in Middle Region. It is such a travesty but it seems that Latoya nor her family and friends or the St Maarten community on a whole will not get justi...

listen to me, the French has a law they give you a paper where as they can hold you for 5 yrs. for any crimes you commit until your trial, be it for arm robbery, murder, drugs enz..

what bullshit with our laws....the Dutch (Antilleas) has this law 4 days, then 8 days paper and another 8 more and after 26 days you don't get tried or release another 56 days they can keep you up to 106days....now tell me!!

change this law...get French on them...I bet you they'll behave!

since the government was dismantled why didn't they change this law? crime has been on a rise for quite some time now, are they planning on changing these laws now that it has hit breaking........and affecting our industry?

Bingo......This shit is easy like 123....I would like you all to take a listen to the AUDIO TAPE of the Aunt of the suspect talking to the Reporter....the guy was a suspect in a robbery that took place a week B4, The car he was driving was shot by police. they went looking for him to ask questions about a robbery....How the hell he became a murder suspect..?? Reporter Said they found CREDIT CARDS CELL PHONES that belonging to the Victims....You all the see that their's corruption in the system...?? Our killer(s) is right there in the in the force...Fine Somebody to pin this on Anybody it a CONSPIRACY ....Told you all it was a HIT "....

Ok I have been thinking that they were going to open a rum factory in partnership with the owner of toppers... Could tit possibly be some interested parties that may have seen them as a threat to the existing rum production companies on the island and orchestrated this murder via a hit man? Just thinking off my head no evidence what so ever to support this theory

I wonder if his fingerprints were found on the bodies. doors or elsewhere in the villa and whatever was found in the car?

When too much information is given out, speculation of all sorts of wild stories abound. This might be just a simple case of a violent robbery. Plain and simple. Who remembers the death of the french man who owned the bumper cars? He was murdered by a man he employed as a security guard. The man was a Jamaican national who was on the island only for a bit more than a month. And why was the french man murdered? for only $900.- All kind of wild stories abound, but the truth is Jamaicans have a terrible reputation around the world for violent crime.

these people were murdered right after signing a business deal or trans action there of,why not before that? who is the business partner,what does he stand to gain in the event of their demise? was any money for said business transferred to business partner?what is the partners background ? see i am a civillian and i have all these questions ..i hope te detective aren't playing nearsighted and juat looking to close this case ,the guilty parties need to be held accountable....

to Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee:...

How sad that you spew your venom towards Canadians and Americans when two American people have been savagely killed in your country. Is it your country? Hmmm... I wonder. The Caribbean (Antillean) people that I have met in St. Maarten were never hateful to me. They seemed concerned for the success of their country and appeared to be sociable and unbiased, and unlike your posts, aware of the problems of humanity. You sound very angry and vicious. There are other posts that appear just like yours. Hateful towards other Caribbean people from various islands. The fact is that St. Maarten is a tourist destination. Your Government is responsible for the reputation of this island and the residents of this island depend on tourism for their economic survival. I understand that people are coming to this island and working for wages that St. Maartener's won't work for because they have their pride and it is also illegal. I agree with them. Some businesses are taking advantage of these desperate or opportunistic people from other islands by not obeying the minimum wage regulations. Making these companies conform and controlling illegal immigration is the responsibility of Government and the Government has not got this under control. How does your hatred help to solve this problem? People will do what they can to survive but beyond that, how does hatred benefit anyone? You can hate whoever you want to hate but pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees try to realize that your attitude is mean spirited and unproductive. Two people were murdered. No one knows yet who murdered these people. Your country (is it your country?) is suffering along with their family and friends. With the pa**ion that you have displayed, could it not be more productive if you directed it where the problem really exists, that is your (?) government? Think about it.

The thing that botters me the most when reading these comments is that every word that has double s gets one s and a star so to make you think of the back part of the body. What ridiculous deforming of words is that. If I write Have compa**ion for the victioms, you will read a star for the second s, I a**ume nobody is pa**ionate about a**essments of the lower back part etc etc. Stop setting a star for every second s in words that are spelled so!

f**k all of u sxmers,a yard mi from living here illegal for 9 year, a ganja mi a sell all ova di place, me a f**k onou daughter everyday, we j.a run this island onou can do nothing sxmer a bunch p***y hole ,mi j.a youth them nah ramp with no body, babylon dem soon afi dead

@jamaican for life

@jamaican for life
please have some sense in that stupid head of yours,when u talk about jamaica please dont say we jamaican talk about your damn self,if u dont have anything decent to say about ur own country that u are so proud of close your trap,stupid people like you make it bad for other law abiding jamaicans wish the babylon could hold your a** lock u up and throw away the key.

@jamaican for life.....

I hope our authorities track your ip address and LOCK your illiterate a** up!

the best thing you could do for your fellow country people is sit quietly or use that same computer to purchase the next ticket (flight) back to your native country or simply let justice prevail to whomever is guilty of this horrific crime rather than showing you and the rest of your herd really/truly are an endangerment to our community/society.....

there is a term: "a still tongue keeps a wise head"

you and I both know the only St. Maarteners that pick ya'll up are the WEAK with very low IQ's....

a confident one won't give ya'll a second look...pay attention to that....stick with the weak, low self-esteem, no worth, drop out of school, un accomplished, bar hopping, living on the system types....

Why you all dont leave and go back home . You all are nothing but a bunch of confused
retarded looking people and stupid like hell too. You all can not even speak English.
Im and er and house. That is how you all say im=Him er=Her ouse=House you set of
