CoP for Cayman Islands reviewing complaints against Mark Collins- Governor Rankin
In an interview with JTV Reporter Cathy O. Richards on January 16, 2024, Mr Rankin said Mr Walton has been given Terms of Reference to investigate any aspect of the petition, but it was the leaked email matter that was particularly concerning to him.
The leaked emails suggested Mr Collins requested senior ranks of the RVIPF to destroy certain evidence relevant to a matter involving a now-retired officer.
‘You don’t simply suspend a public officer on the basis of an allegation’- Governor
Many in the public; however, have been asking why the Commissioner remains on the job.
“When an allegation is made you don’t simply suspend a public officer on the basis of an allegation. What happens is an investigation is carried out and if that investigation gives grounds on the basis of evidence of believing a disciplinary offense may have been committed and therefore a disciplinary investigation is required, at that point you place the officer on administrative leave.
“So, it’s not the same as the case in relation to the Police Commissioner. So I got the petition of complaint with particular focus in relation to the email issue,” Governor Rankin explained.
No timeframe for review to be completed
Mr Rankin said Mr Walton will “look at the evidence as he sees fit, to pursue the evidence as he sees fit, and then come up with findings, and if those findings, where in the area of an offense may have been committed or disciplinary action may need to be taken, at that point the governor would take a decision in relation to whether placing an individual on administrative leave would be required.
“That’s a fair way of treating it and I want to treat the police commissioner in that way as I have treated other public officers.”
Governor Rankin also said he has not set a timeframe for Mr Walton to complete his review, and he has “given him a free hand on it”.
“I obviously hope it can be done in an efficient and quick way, looking at the evidence and fairness to everyone concerned.

1) Take over Immigration: He wants to immediately give over 4000 of his kind status so they can out number the people of the BVI and then allow them to have a secondary take over plan.
2) Pass the new police act on his own: He wants to give the police unlimited powers to do many anti-democratic things such as but not limited to searching anyone's home without a warrant and do so on mere suspicion. Talk about making the BVI a police state where people will have no basic human nor democratic rights.
3) He wants to pass the Jury Act: Here is where he wants the cases to proceed without any jury to decided the cases but rather have the Judge themselves decide if you are guilty. Not only is this anti democratic but it represents dictatorship as all the UK will do next is flood the position of Judges with persons from the UK who have like minds as them against the locals and Caribbean people. It is another tier of their take over plan.
4) Powers to pass laws by himself without HOA: Here is where he wants to legalize same sex marriage. Here is where he wants to redefine who is a Virgin Islander.
I will stop there for now but people of the BVI these people have no good intention for us. They have no respect for our democracy and democratic rights. It is time to wake up and stand up for what is right and represents true democracy and not sit back and allow a wicked agenda by the Brits to get through.
It is alleged by many in the BVI that the outcome of the handpicked Sir Gary Hickinbottom’s led CoI was predetermined, especially the suspension of the VI constitution, etc. The CoI was conducted unfairly with much bias. For example, the total focus of the one-man commissioner investigation was laser-focused on functions under the purview of Black locals. However, little or no focus was put on troubled functions under the purview of the Governor, viz, RVIPF, Civil service, HMP, etc. Further, the conclusion of the investigation into the 55 charges lodge against CoP Mark Collins will read, “ no evidence to substantiate charges.” As was the case with the Gary Hickinbottom’s CoI, the outcome of this investigation by fellow CoP Kurt Walton is pre-determined. The cabal strike, strike and strike again!!
If I were to roll a dice, there is a probability that one of these numbers will be on top, ie,? 1, 2,3,4,5, or 6. Is it a coincidence that only white Britons, members of the cabal are selected to lead investigations. Or that the Governor(s) is very deliberate is not wanting blacks to conduct investigations??
No?
Only me?
Carry on then!
And truly speaking the individual who are classed as sinners are winning the battle daily.
The world eventually will be rule by 1 government and the world will have a cashless system
And the world will all gang up and despite those who believe Christ. All these will have and the drying up of the Euphrates river is the beginning of it all
So the world will make a serious you turn soon something big and tragic is coming. This will happen on a global scale mark my words.
