THE EDITOR, Sir:

An uptown justice of the peace was recently robbed of pieces of 40-year-old family heirloom jewellery, right at her gate and at gunpoint, as she drove home from church on Sunday at 12:30 p.m. The robbery was staged during efforts to assist a child who had just lost her mother.

The JP, a former social worker who had spent all her years helping people, said that we have to be careful of the people we invite into our homes when trying to help.

Some of those very same people will turn around and maul you in their dog-hearted, cursed life.

WORD TO THE WISE

Dunrobin, Kingston
