But wah happen to dis fat, sour looking man? First off his ass have no right to be eating any doubles. steups.

Goes to show the level is ignorance that permeates that society presently. even "so called " well to do yutes in the badjohn business.
last time i was home i put meh tail between meh leg, when i see that you could lose yuh life over something as simple as a stare.
back in the days a real badjohn would have ignored him or give him some high talk, or some good haul yuh mudda so and so woulda pass and the whole thing woulda squash right there, that's bc no matter how a fella was bad in those days, the ppl still had restraint and respect for elders, but today, even a baby could catch it.
tuh tell yuh the truth, not even bad yankee here in NY does behave like that, this phenomenon is ah strange one :worried:. in all honesty, i can't and would not live in a society soooo touchy and on the edge like T&T.
-
of course the minister knows who he is, his ID can be easily confirmed if that camera has any kind of ANPR/LPR capability. if not it might be a simple matter of interpolation. i personally would not kill him for that, he is just a spoil chile. but he would take that cutlass butt through his face.
-
Ah bet allyuh anything that dah white man eh goin back dey fuh no mo doubles, that's the last dat doubles man see of that man's money. customer gone forever and ever.
-
ah wonder if jeffers know who dat dat fella iz boy??
-
My first thought was I wonder what the old guy was complaining about? The truck looked like it was parked ok. All I can assume is that it was playing loud music?
My second thought was what was the fat guy from Lost doing in T&T?
-

He was complaining about the diesel fumes from the engine... which the driver left running, with people trying to eat nearby.

My man still runnin his mouth after the two jokey plannass oui. under all seriousness, if dah whiteman is part of the mafia in T&T, or have ah mafia friend, fatman coulda katch something later on and eh know why.
trini is ah place where ah fella just have to pray hard and hold ah medi, bc right now is all kinda IMPS running around free in that place, and yuh never know when you will encounter one bc it seems to me that they come in all shapes color and sizes. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

So people eating doubles at the stand and pops complain that he ingesting fumes while trying to eat and fatboy gone in his truck for a cutlass and planass him twice...wtf really going on these days dread. Any respectable/considerate person woulda been like "sorry, lemme switch off de engine". Maybe pops tone was too harsh for fatboy so he had to prove a point.
I'm willing to bet if it was a younger yute, who look like he came Laventille or something with the same complaint, I'm sure fatboy won't have even considered drawing dat cutlass...jus ah advantage scene again. JC fatboy better hope dat man don't have children or even relatives who seeing dis because he might get a dread blowout, minister's son or not.

as yuh saw for your self, the other dudes who was there clearly stayed out of it though they were more than physically able to restrain fat boy, as yuh clearly saw, the big belly fella with the black and grey striped shirt took off as soon as he saw fatman returning with ah demon screw on his face, that man anticipated the worst and so should every trini who lives on that rock, if he/she has ah lick of sense.

What if he had ah gun stashed right next to the cut lass??
the white dude did the right thing, walk da fack away, tomorrow is another day and yuh live and learn. if ah man is dotish enough to pull ah blade with very little provocation, then he's is stupid enough tuh pull ah gun and use it if he fell under an attack.
IMO the best way to deal with ppl nowadays especially the young ignoramuses, is to pretend they don't exist, you don't see them or hear them.
i totally ignore them media and play station fed baboons, and i walk very far from them, and if that fails then i does look for a blue and white tuh sic on them, let 5.0 deal with them, not me.

Exactly why my family keep discouraging me from returning..they say I have no sense...The thing is, I pretty sure I could take it, but not sure I could see somebody else getting it..I hope it's a question that never gets answered..it already has me exiled. Even watching the video was difficult...why somebody have to be bad to step it, why can't it be a good person. And if we just continue to avoid, what is to prevent it happenning to everyone else..ppl expect a police to be standing on every corner...Pppl have to stand up or die for other people, it's the only way you will have your country back..but it's true, easy to talk, I can't say what reality will bring...I know doh, my bud wanted to kill me, cause I was chasing a mugger in Washington..I got lucky, he ran straight into the police..meh bud ask meh not to come back dey again...lol...I agree doh, I wasn't thinking, and it was many years ago, today I am more a thinker than reflex..more resposibilities etc...Thank god I reach here..I hope I would be able to walk away, but not everyone should..just sayin

Pardner, all dat hero talk is just that, the reality iz, when ah man is faced with real situations all those heroic gestures does go out the window.
first off, i not drinkin bush fuh no body fever, if ah man rob yuh and he on his way to escaping i clearing the way, go brave pardner! i not getting caught up fuh no material possessions, especially if it eh mines, fack dat! if i see ah fella getting jumped i might try tuh help out considering the situation eh look too volatile, if is ah family member then i have no choice, hence the reason i like the idea of carrying, not that i carry, but carrying makes it much easier when faced with these kind of situations.
i know nuff ppl does think real life situations is like it seem in the movies, but it's not. i've been in very bad situations in my life, and to tell yuh the truth, it's not ah nice feeling staring down a barrel or facing a man with a blade. take care max, i mean it.
-
I cool...story time...I have been in some unfortunate circumstances, and true, the barrel looks larger than life, when you on the wrong end, and somehow, I was able to walk...the funniest , but not the worst being was a bank robber stuck up the branch - I was a teller - I worked at, stuck the gun in my face, and shouted at me to open the drawer..well, I hesitate, an he buss a kick on the old lady female teller next to me..Chupid me pelt way the key, an start to buss some Trini cuss on he French ass..everything went slow motion after that, I heard click, and close meh eyes, and didn't hear a sound after that..then ah bunch a screaming..when I open meh eyes the man running out the door..everybody want to know what I shout at the man , they say I was talking in tongues, :rotfl: they give meh $300 and 2 days off..3 days later, I still trembling like a sick dog..they transfer meh to ah next branch..who yuh feel walk in the place again..watch meh, an turn round an run out straight into the police...poor man, carry on like the gun went off, and he seeing ghost...2weeks later, I Lego that teller wuk, cause I know, I not so lucky, to do tata so an get away again..an sure nuff, the next time was the worse..right in Brooklyn..and that time I walked away, and did nothing..bothered me for years..even doh it turned out walking away was the right decision, based on what I found out about the damsel in distress 20 minutes after I walked..learned that night that my buds , who I knew to be church boys, was carrying just in case..hear dem nah, " nah, maxg, that cyan happen to u here"... What.. I and my small family was outta Brooklyn that morning..my wife asking wha happen, wha happen, I say, everybody living here packing but me...anyway, the moral is, me not no cat, and ah done use up a few..so me not sure I have no more to use up left..but I doubt I could stand up and eat doubles like normal..yet at my age, not sure how much of option one, flight, I could execute...thanks for the concern..and that is why , I hope I can walk away, and deal with years of guilt after,..yet given today's events, how many years any of us have..I thank god for how much he has blessed me, all I have to offer doh is my integrity. NB., it's just some thoughts expressed aloud, as u say, Reality sometimes change the story ending

next ting allyuh on here go be telling me how tuh wear my draws, or how tuh play wid my wife pim? steupsssssssss!!!
-
It might sound sad eh...but in discussions with my peers I have gotten differing points of view and I am shocked at most of the responses.
1) The white man tell him more than the gutter story...a normal man doh trip off just so and pull blade for people.
2) If he wanted to chop him or planass him good he woulda deal him more blows...it was a kinda intimidation bully kinda scene fatboy was on. If fatboy was serious he woulda chop him up.
3) Who stopping a fat man with a cutlass? I go take chop because another man start him and tell him something...
4)Why the others around did not move or assist....it wasnt they business to get into.
5)Why the doubles man sell him after the incident..he fraid chop too or he is a good customer?
6)Fatman didnt look like he pay for his doubles.
7)Incident pass and gone and the day continue as normal...doubles selling and barra and channa eating.
Maxg, it sad eh...but right now down here is A for apple, B for bat and C bout yuhself.
I hope fatboy is dealt with by the authorities, but i suspect....he go pay a piece of change and charges go be dropped.
-
fatboy was vex because de man eating all de doubles.
man dat size mashing up 20 doubles in one shot to maintain a figure like dat.
-
Gopee admitt it's his son
-
who is gopee?
-
Gopeesingh education minister.
-
education? ironic given the level of ignorance portrayed in the video.
the only way fatboy actions warranted is if the man make racist remarks to him.

Businessman ‘planassed’ buying doubles...
Gopeesingh identifies his son as attacker
Published: Trinidad Guardian
Thursday, September 27, 2012
An investigation has been launched into an incident last Tuesday in which a businessman was planassed by a young man who has been identified as Shane Gopeesingh, a son of Education Minister Dr Tim Gopeesingh. The drama occurred outside the Brooklyn Bar in Woodbrook when Gregory Wight went to purchase doubles from a vendor on the sidewalk. The shocking episode was captured by a private security camera and went viral after being posted on YouTube.
Putting an end to a week of speculation, Dr Gopeesingh yesterday confirmed that the person in a video is indeed his son. The incident which surfaced last week on social networking site You Tube showed a man beating a customer with a cutlass. It was reported that the suspect was the son of a senior government official. In an interview with reporters at St Mary’s College, Gopeesingh was asked whether the attacker in the video was his son.
He hurriedly admitted, “ Yes, he is my son.” However, he declined to comment further on the matter, saying that it was under investigation and it would be inappropriate. When police was contacted shortly after, they stated that they could not proceed with pressing charges because Wight, 56, of Diego Martin, had not made a report of the attack. Wight said though his physical injuries will heal, his mental health “has been shot to pieces.”
Speaking with the T&T Guardian yesterday, Wight insisted that a report had been made to the Woodbrook police around 7.40 am the same day. He said the injuries he suffered left him “barely able to drive.” He revealed that he has not slept longer than one hour at any time since the incident. “I have been given sleeping pills to help me rest and I am also blacking out at intervals,” he said.
After a week of silence concerning the young man’s identity, despite a video titled Planass From Minister’s Son being posted on YouTube, Gopeesingh yesterday ended all speculation. Recounting the attack yesterday, Wight said it stemmed from him asking Shane Gopeesingh to turn off the engine of his pick-up as people were eating doubles and the diesel fumes were unhealthy.
Wight said his attacker became aggressive and began cursing loudly, but that “the trigger that sent him for his cutlass” was Wight’s comment the he had “come from the gutter and would stay there.” Wight said he was stuck twice with the cutlass and made to apologise. “If I had not stayed quiet and done exactly what he told me, I expected to die,” he said.
Uneasy now if someone gets too close to him, Wight said a woman who tried to hug him yesterday was nearly cuffed down because, “I am extremely jumpy and stressed out.” He said his family has also been affected by the incident and that his business was now suffering as a result.
Telling the T&T Guardian that he would no longer be going to the Brooklyn Bar to purchase doubles as he was accustomed doing, Wight joked: “I always knew doubles were dangerous for my health, but I did not know that it was that dangerous.”
Asked if he would be moving ahead with the matter, despite the minister’s offer of an apology, Wight said: “It has been six days since I was brutalised and four days since the video was shown on television and yet nothing has been done. That boy is free to roam and brutalise others.” Referring to the crime situation, Wight said this incident has only served to reinforce his wish to migrate.
Speaking during yesterday’s weekly press briefing at the Police Administration Building, Public Information Officer Sgt Wayne Mystar confirmed that the investigation of the incident had started on Monday. Mystar said a report was made to the Woodbrook police and all leads were being “thoroughly investigated.”

Man gey me ah mdacnt chance nah!!
what other alternative do i have? it's not like there was an article on the story. ah man post ah video of the incident, no article with names or profession was offered, just raw footage, and that's all anyone has to go by.
you acting like i know de fackin man name and refusing to use it, he fackin white and de boy fat, every body on here callin them "whiteman" and "fat boy" but you on me! man f#ck off eh!!
-
That "gregory whiteman wight " ;D is ah fat c*nt!!! stuueeeppssss! he acting like if the fella "shane fatman gopisingh" pull out ah full chrome and buss two passed him.
all this talk bout traumatized, i not buying that for ah mili second. he is clearly playing for prizes and is embellishing his injuries. from what i saw, he got two petti pat jokey plannass, and after the man hit him and went back with the lass to his car, he was still runnin his mouth.
ah know i will get a lot of flack for this, but i feel he talk real sh!t to the yute, more than he's willing to confess too.
as for tellin the boy that "he's from the gutter and should stay there", i too might ah jossle him fuh dat. them "whiteboys" love tuh make man feel small about their social standing in the society and always quick tuh tell ah man he from here and there, i not saying that "shane" was right for reacting this way, but i understand.
as for "gregory wight", man stop yuh over acting!
your arse is fine, and you not leaving sweet trinidad where you and yours get to live like kings and queens as opposed to london or south florida where no body cares who dah hell you are, and yuh have no clout.
yuh eh go stop gnam doubles either, so stop all this talk about yuh done wid brooklyn bar, you will just go elsewhere.
and all this talk about blacking out, and yuh eh sleep for days, nice try arseh@le, now get over yuhself!
please, it was two baby lash from a up town yute who didn't even know how tuh plannass ah dog self, matter of fact, i sure you are the first person he ever plannased in his whole over eating life, so please don't make it out to be more than it really was.
IMO these rich "white ppl" feel dat criminal activity only supposed to affect lower and middle income ppl, and any kind of brush with crime leaves them in a state of "this shouldn't happen to me" syndrome.
the fact that 300 ppl has already been slain violently in this country mainly by the gun, and 99% of them were middle and lower income ppl, would be a blessing if a fella of modest income would fall under such a timid attack as apposed to life threatening assault.
these rich folks IMO also need to be victims of violent crimes, and not spared any further, maybe then the govt would get off their arses and do something! it's a shame that when only ppl with name and clout come under any kind of attack the authorities are forced into action, but when a man of modest income is hurt or slain it makes the news and nothing more is done to stem the flow of violence.
last time i was home, every time i went to visit my boy on upper oxford st, i had a serious cause for concern not to be caught up there after seven o clock when the sun went down.
and if we went to st james to lime or grap a bite, coming back anytime after ten i could not drive my friend up the hill, he had to take his chances walking up those dismal unsafe streets which he had been robbed @ gun point many times over, yet no police presents in those volatile areas, just ah jokey patrol now and then.
a female friend of mines asked me one day to walk up the hill with her bc she was scared to go home, and it was only eight o clock pm, i said bandits don't rob women, which she replied that she and her friend were victims of armed robberies @ gun point where they were made to lie on the ground and robbed of their valuables, including chicken and chips.
ppl up there are livin in real fear for their safty, and yet nothing is done, so to hear this man cry wolf bc he was touched with ah jokey short breed blade makes me angry! instead of the cops tending to his pampered arse, they should be patrolling those areas heavily especially after the sun goes down.

as for tellin the boy that "he's from the gutter and should stay there", i too might ah jossle him fuh dat. them "whiteboys" love tuh make man feel small about their social standing in the society and always quick tuh tell ah man he from here and there, i not saying that "shane" was right for reacting this way, but i understand.
as for "gregory wight", man stop yuh over acting!
your arse is fine, and you not leaving sweet trinidad where you and yours get to live like kings and queens as opposed to london or south florida where no body cares who dah hell you are, and yuh have no clout.
yuh eh go stop gnam doubles either, so stop all this talk about yuh done wid brooklyn bar, you will just go elsewhere.
and all this talk about blacking out, and yuh eh sleep for days, nice try arseh@le, now get over yuhself!
please, it was two baby lash from a up town yute who didn't even know how tuh plannass ah dog self, matter of fact, i sure you are the first person he ever plannased in his whole over eating life, so please don't make it out to be more than it really was.
IMO these rich "white ppl" feel dat criminal activity only supposed to affect lower and middle income ppl, and any kind of brush with crime leaves them in a state of "this shouldn't happen to me" syndrome.
the fact that 300 ppl has already been slain violently in this country mainly by the gun, and 99% of them were middle and lower income ppl, would be a blessing if a fella of modest income would fall under such a timid attack as apposed to life threatening assault.
these rich folks IMO also need to be victims of violent crimes, and not spared any further, maybe then the govt would get off their arses and do something! it's a shame that when only ppl with name and clout come under any kind of attack the authorities are forced into action, but when a man of medst income is hurt or slain it makes the news and nothing more is done to stem the flow of violence.
last time i was home, every time i went to visit my boy on upper oxford st, i had a serious cause for concern not to be caught up there after seven o clock when the sun went down.
and if we went to st james to lime or grap a bite, coming back anytime after ten i could not drive my friend up the hill, he had to take his chances walking up those dismal unsafe streets which he had been robbed @ gun point many times over, yet no police presents in those volatile areas, just ah jokey patrol now and then.
a female friend of mines asked me one day to walk up the hill with her bc she was scared to go home, and it was only eight o clock pm, i said bandits don't rob women, which she replied that she and her friend were victims of armed robberies @ gun point where they were made to lie on the ground and robbed of their valuables, including chicken and chips.
ppl up there are livin in real fear for their safty, and yet nothing is done, so to hear this man cry wolf bc he was touched with ah jokey short breed blade makes me angry! instead of the cops tending to his pampered arse, they should be patrolling those areas heavily especially after the sun goes down.
fully agree!

This is going to be a LONG thread.

JC I used to think you were just passionate about issues of race and justice but this post makes me think otherwise. How you could defend an act of assault on somebody because a stranger said something to offend you is unfathomable. I won't get involved in the peripheral issues of what was said or comment on the perceptions of different groups but we do know that one guy said something and another guy hit the other guy with the broad side of a cutlass.
This video is yet another display of the rampant lawlessness in this country. I get what you're saying that this may not be the most brutal attack ever but surely it is intolerable. Who are you to say what the victim is feeling now anyway ?
-
When police was contacted shortly after, they stated that they could not proceed with pressing charges because Wight, 56, of Diego Martin, had not made a report of the attack.
Speaking with the T&T Guardian yesterday, Wight insisted that a report had been made to the Woodbrook police around 7.40 am the same day.
Speaking during yesterday’s weekly press briefing at the Police Administration Building, Public Information Officer Sgt Wayne Mystar confirmed that the investigation of the incident had started on Monday. Mystar said a report was made to the Woodbrook police and all leads were being “thoroughly investigated.”

Breds, i don't know your politics, i definitely don't know how you roll, though you seemed very cool and collective a fellow, but i can't say i get you or i understand you, so i would take that into account when confronting you, but man, you sound like you came from a real pacifist home or you have groomed your self into that frame of mind, bc i just don't get how you could be so modest in your views.
sorry but i am a product of my environment, not the epitome, but nonetheless a product.
hate to run the stories on yuh but to make you understand who i am, my first brush with violence was when i was 4 yrs old. my mother send me to the shop, on my way back i was accosted by twin boys older than me, they took my corncurls and give me some hard tump, not to mention i ran home with my eyes full ah tears beggin my ole lady to go get my corncurls back from them, my ole lady looked right @ me and said "boy!!! if you ever come home crying to me again about someone taking your things like a little girl and not fighting back for your things, then i would put the most severe cutarse on you that you would wish i wasn't your mother!!", not to mention that my dad also gave me the same lecture.
now could you imagine a young pampered boy from that point having to learn one of the ghetto's most important and basic lessons, learning to get violent when it matters. i was taken aback bc i was everyone's pet, my cousins, sisters every body loved and pampered me, but up to this point i had to learn how to get nasty and compete with the animals out there, and tuh tell yuh the truth, i wasn't ready for that yet! but i had to learn and learn fast.
i was always ah good natured boy, never liked bullying or violence, but bc of the environment i was raised in i had to rise to the occasion.
i went to one of the roughest primary schools in the whole of EDR and i had my fair share of fights. as i grew i learned that if yuh doh fack somebody up real bad and make ah name for your self you will always be ah target, sad but true (law of the jungle), and yet still i was one of the approachable yutes in the hood.
can't tell you how many times i was jumped , stoned, fought for marbles, buss boy head, got punched , punched mdfckrs, i grew up real hard kid, so i can't understand how to be like ah up town yute, in other words my mother and father told me it was ok to be violent from ah tender age, so i cyar relate kid, i sorry to break it to yuh, and i not pretending either, ah hope you understand.

Is ok I'm not offended by what you're saying and I actually appreciate your candidness on the issue. I wouldn't say I'm a pacifist at all I have very strong support for the death penalty and would support many policies that might be deemed draconian. I just have an abhorrence for lawlessness and indiscipline. Your story is compelling evidence for how our worldviews are formed. Consider then that the victim of the violence might have had an entirely different experience and furthermore could be right.
Most people want a society that is fair and equitable, peaceful and respectful of the rule of law. While I concede that these are lofty goals they are not impossible. I am convinced however that they become unachievable if we are impulsive and resort to violence whenever someone upsets us. Regardless of our experience we are governed by rules. This video is upsetting to me because it is indication that he like so many others has no expectation of punishment.

Breds, i doubt you abhor lawlessness and indiscipline as much as both my parents, and a lot of that rubbed off on me too, but yet they were the ones who told me if ah man wrong yuh then wrong him back in like manner, and i must say defending your self is not against any law including the law of nature.
now don't get me wrong, fats is ah deuch bag full stop, but there are extenuating circumstances to this little squabble, the gregory fella was digging into the man with words, maybe that guy was having ah bad day, maybe his woman dumped him or a man who looked like dude fired him ah few days ago, maybe the man boss does dig into him the same way, who's to say, maybe homeboy flipped that day, who knows.
all i know is dat things are not always the way it seems, and if i was in ah bad mood and someone was taunting me with words and said something that was very insensitive, i wouldn't run for ah blade, but i will chop yuh up with harsh lyrics.
BTW, there's no justice system in T&T IMO. for yrs on end ppl with money and status has been breaking the law and getting away with it while the less fortunate has to answer to every minor offense in the book, which it meted out with merciless punishments.
in most societies the law is for some, and not for all. trinbago once again is one of these societies. i've seen rich boys who broke the law and mommy and daddy put them on ah plane and fly dem out, while some superintendant of police destroy the evidence and suspend the charges together with the DPP bc big money pass.
yrs after the same yute is flown back in the country , he gets ah big work and all is forgotten and life goes on as usual, so don't tell me bout no law, bc i don't respect them and the yutes know that they are corrupt and deep down they don't have respect for the corruption, dats why "some" don't care to be law abiding, and why should they, when the law makers are indeed the biggest law breakers.

He hasn't left the country'
By Jensen LaVende
Story Updated: Sep 27, 2012 at 11:01 PM ECT
Speaking to members of the media yesterday following the National Youth Productivity Forum hosted by the American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham), at Hyatt Regency Hotel, Port of Spain, Gopeesingh said his son was still in the country and he did not want to say anything to jeopardise the investigations.
"Right now Shane is at home. He is possibly at work today," Gopeesingh said.
Asked if he would be taking his son to the police station for questioning, Gopeesingh said: "As you realise this is an ongoing police investigation that demands the fullest independence and the respect and I wish to honour that independence and as such I would want to reiterate my statement from yesterday (Wednesday) that it will not be fair for me to comment and leave the matter."
Asked if his son was co-operating with the police and about the presumption that his son would escape the law because of his father's status, Gopeesingh said he would leave all those comments for his son's attorney.
"Please allow me not to make any more comments on the matter...I think I have said enough on the matter, I think I've said what needed to be said on the matter. I will allow the independence of the investigation to continue without me interfering whatsoever and me making any statements whatsoever."

'Planass' victim calls for arrest

WHY has he not been arrested?
This is the question being asked by the man who was allegedly beaten by the son of Education Minister Dr Tim Gopeesingh last week Wednesday morning while eating doubles outside Brooklyn Bar in Woodbrook.
In a telephone interview with the Express yesterday, Gregory Wight expressed his frustration at the pace of the police investigation.
"I would like to see the perpetrator of this heinous act arrested right away. How can he not be arrested after all this time? What is going on? You have every piece of evidence...the doubles man has given his statement, the owner of the bar has handed over the tape. They have every official reason to arrest this man," Wight said.
The video clip of the incident has been posted on Facebook, YouTube and other social networking sites.
Wight, 56, chief executive officer of Stuart Brothers, an export company located in Cocorite, said had he been the attacker he would have been jailed, so why can't the reverse take place.
"If I had committed that act, before lunch time I would have been arrested. Why is he being given all this special treatment? This was the most heinous act of aggression and violence and wounding and he has not been arrested eight days later. It is a national disgrace," he said.
Wight said following the attack his life has been turned upside down and he now only sleeps for an hour a day.
"I am generally a quiet person...my cell phone, I mean it has been about 400 people who have reached out to me so far, which is wonderful but it is just too much... I don't have a press agent you know. I spend 80 per cent of my time on this now," said Wight, a regular writer to the Express' Letters to the Editor section for the past 36 years.
Wight, despite his anger, said he truly feels for the accused.
"I feel very sorry for him; something traumatic must have happened in his life to cause him to fly off the handle like that when somebody asked him to turn off his engine for a while to eat doubles. I really feel sorry for him."
Wight said at the end of the school term he would like to have an anti-violence march for five days straight in hotspots of the country to spread the word of non-violence.
Police sources close to the investigation said they visited the home of the accused yesterday, but he was not there.
Officers said they will not make an arrest since there have not been any orders from their superiors to do so.

If not, then they will have to rope in the doubles man as a witness or something for evidence...

words of advice, if you are living in tt nowadays, its better to stay silent in certain instances, you don't know who you are dealing with or what they will do...
mr wight should not have been planass but at the same time, he should know to stay quiet especially with how volatile tt can be these days, the older folks have to understand that youths don't care about elders and age in tt, all that manners in modern day tt society has gone out the window.. yes the young man should be charged but prevention is the best cure...
in my grandparents days, everyone use to say good morning to one another, that simple manners don't happen, touches response is the best ive read on here...
mr.wight is lucky he ent get corn.. which is a high possibility in tt these days, realistically speaking its better to buy yuh doubles and let the hungry youth man buy his doubles, correcting people in mondern day tt can be life threatening...
furthermore, if yuh buying a doubles and yuh have to take a minute of fumes, it really warrant all the talk??? is it worth endangering yuh life for a minute of fumes?? and mr wight have no right to put down the youth to begin with, which again can put mr wights life in danger, not worth it.

Tuesday, October 2, 2012
Thirteen days after he allegedly “planassed” a businessman in Woodbrook, Shane Gopeesingh has surrendered to police. Gopeesingh, 28, of Ellerslie Park, Maraval, reportedly walked into the Central Police Station, Port-of-Spain, yesterday morning, accompanied by his attorney Ravi Rajcoomar. Gopeesingh, son of Education Minister Dr Tim Gopeesingh, was interviewed but was not placed in a holding cell. Up to 5.30 pm yesterday, senior police said “loose ends were still being tied up.”
Gopeesingh remained in police custody last night. ASP Ajith Persad of the Port-of-Spain Criminal Investigations Department was appointed as the lead investigator last Thursday. Gregory Wight, 56, of Diego Martin, was allegedly “planassed” by Shane Gopeesingh on September 18 outside Brooklyn Bar, Woodbrook. The incident was captured by a private security camera and later posted on YouTube.

ahmmm...what they investigating so long..who are the actors...type of special effects...or they just can't determine if doubles or boil corn the parties involved was buying..maybe it was dime bags to go...I know, he will get off, because yuh can't determine from the video, if the car was really giving off 'illegal' fumes.. or maybe cause, they waiting for a lip reader, to determine if the victim really tell him bout he mudda...thus making it provocation and self defense....watch out they doh charge the old man for aggravating the fine upstanding young man....now that go be "CSI St. James" show material

If this was a white man lashing a black youth the uproar would be heard around the whole caribbean. no justifying this nonsense by age, race, skin colour, class, good hair, whatever.
and as for all the self-preservationists who saying he should have kept his mouth shut...at what point do we say enough is enough? i know a thing or two about violence. bowing your head like a dog only makes it worse. keeping YOUR mouth shut today might one day lead to catastrophe for a loved one tomorrow. there is a time to catch flies with honey, and a time to time to bring hellfire.
Trinidad is past due for a generational purge of these reprobate values from Westmoorings right thru to Laventille.
Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have the exact measure of the injustice and wrong which will be imposed on them-Frederick Douglass

in fact why play hero when the next man dont give a damn, the mentality needs to change, moral restoration as i put it, needs to happen, right now mr wight could have left his kids fatherless if it was the wrong person over a few minutes of fumes standing at a doubles stand, has human life been devalued so much?

Minister’s son in planass video slapped with four charges
Published: Wednesday, October 3, 2012
ANNA-LISA PAUL
A day after he surrendered to police, a son of Education Minister Dr Tim Gopeesingh appeared in court yesterday charged with using obscene language, assaulting Gregory Wight, occasioning him actual bodily harm, and possession of a weapon with intent to commit an offence. Pleading not guilty to the charges, Shane Aleong, 28, of Ellerslie Park, Maraval, was granted $25,000 bail to be approved by a clerk of the peace.
After several requests from Aleong’s lawyers, Ravi Rajcoomar and John Heath, instructed by Nalini Bansie, a cash alternative of $10,000 was also granted. Aleong, also known as Shane Gopeesingh, an information technology consultant, appeared before Senior Magistrate Annette McKenzie in the Port-of-Spain Fourth Court just after 3 pm yesterday. Clad in a black suit, Aleong remained expressionless as the charges were read to him.
The court heard that on September 19 at Carlos Street, Woodbrook, Aleong allegedly used obscene language, assaulted Gregory Wight causing him harm, and used a cutlass with intent to wound. He was brought to the court in a marked police vehicle around 2.45 pm, escorted by two officers. In his application for bail, Rajcoomar told the court that a letter had been sent to the police a week ago after the defence learnt that Aleong was “a person of interest.”
He said Aleong had surrendered to investigators on Monday morning at the Central Police Station and had co-operated with police. Claiming that Aleong had become the target of a media campaign, Rajcoomar said he was from a well-known family and that his father was a government minister. Last week, the Education Minister admitted that Aleong was his son.
Heath and Rajcoomar appealed for the clerk of the peace approval to be varied, claiming that because of time constraints and the fact that an official might not have been available yesterday afternoon, Aleong might have had to spend last night in prison. Rejecting claims that Aleong had been brought to court late, McKenzie asked: “Why is he any different from any other defendant?”
Mc Kenzie pointed out that there was a procedure to be followed in complying with the bail conditions, but agreed to impose a cash alternative. The matter was later adjourned to October 9. The charges were laid by Sgt Christopher Joshua. Aleong's appearance in court yesterday resulted from a week-long investigation led by ASP Ajith Persad of the Port-of-Spain CID.

That evidence may not be admissible in court, we don't know what convo he had with his lawyer or what are the extenuating circumstances behind the attack, all we saw was this that and that with no audio.
BTW, not only still photos could be doctored, video could also be altered to look a certain way, that's why a lot of video evidence don't become admissible as well as taped convo in a lot of cases. after all this is just an arraignment, he could change his plea during the course of the proceedings especially if the court have enough evidence to indict.

Doubles vigilante confesses… to his innocence
Posted Saturday 13 October 2012 by Filbert Street in View Point
Scene: Interview Room, Central Police Station.
Investigating Officer: “So, Mr Shane Gopeesingh-Aleong, can we go over your statement again, please? Now, you said you were working in a soup kitchen all morning helping to feed women who were victims of domestic violence. Is that correct?”
Shane: “Yes, sir. You see these women can’t cook and that’s why their husbands give them licks. So once they run away, they need someone to feed them.”
Officer: “Can you give us the location of this soup kitchen or the names of the people working there?”
Shane: “No, sir. To protect the women, that’s strictly confidential information.”
Officer: “Okay. So then, you say that when you left the soup kitchen you were passing through Woodbrook and saw the doubles stall. You hadn’t eaten so you decided to stop for some doubles, is that it?”
Shane: “Yes I’m a bit of a health nut and spend a lot of time in the gym, so I don’t normally eat doubles as I prefer organic vegetables. But I guess that morning I felt I deserved a treat.”
