Justice minister Radhamés Jimenez, Police chief Jose Polanco and DNCD president Rolando Rosado headed the meeting to define actions against the different types of organized crime and drug trafficking, among others.

“All this is directed toward making the prosecution of organized crime more effective, mainly drug trafficking,” he said.

While you're all meeting, please take the time to address root of the problem, rather than just the symptoms. We have an abysmal decay or rather disappearance of our principles, our values and our personal convictions in dominican society.

1. Principles are established by GOD for man to follow. Not even talked about in public. Unless they're to be mocked.
2. Values are the norms we all agree to follow that ensure good fellowship with one another. Completely lost nowadays.
3.Personal Convictions are representative of the level of integrity within each man that keeps him acceptable to himself.

This is how they deal with crime in the DR.

Judge orders arrest of 3 Chinese over chicken meat dispute.


The judge National District Instruction Court Coordinating judge Rosalba Garib bought chicken filet, she didn’t like it and told the Chinese that she was returning it and a discussion ensued that culminated with the Chinese escorted by a police contingent assigned to the Ciudad Nueva Courthouse on the judge’s order,” said Richard Manuel Mejía, who witnessed the incident.

He said the judge brought out the entire Police contingent and abused the Chinese, and arrested the woman cashier by beating her, “what she did was an abuse against those people.”
