'Where is the petition' to make Jacqueline E. Vanterpool permanent CoP?- 'Masa' Pemberton
In his Facebook post, under his handle Masa Hickinbottom, on February 3, 2025, Pemberton shared a photo of Ms Vanterpool on the scene of a traffic incident at the roundabout in Purcell Estate, assisting her ranks.
Pemberton said Ms Vanterpool has been a good example to her staff and goes above and beyond to build a relationship with the community.
Not a Desk Cop!
"Top cop not a desk cop! I think this is very important as she is doing her best in making sure herself!!! That the junior staff get it! And professionally get it. Handling and dealing with people with respect! Making sure she set the precedence in this community that the relationship between general public and police can be restored with a little mentorship," Pemberton remarked.
The influencer added that there was "good vibes" in the air with Vanterpool around and that he "even had a officer ignore my phone in my hand and asked if i wanted him to pose! Good vibes and well done."
Where is the petition?
Pemberton said Ms Vanterpool was also spotted at the market square last Friday with the Agape Church and assumed that she was just connecting with the people.
"Where is the petition to make her permanent???? This acting thing is out of the question!" Pemberton exclaimed.
The Facebook post generated much response from the public, with many supporting the call for Ms Vanterpool to be confirmed to the post.
One person highlighted that sometimes Ms Vanterpool could be seen playing dominoes with the taxi men in Road Town, asserting that is the kind of personality the force needs at the helm.
Many prominent persons in the community shared the view that Ms Vanterpool is very competent to be the next Commissioner of Police.
What is the Governor up to?
Some were concerned; however, that the Governor's recent decision to suspend the hiring process for a new CoP and start a new one was to ensure a UK national got the job.
"They stopped the hiring process and extended the other senior officer contract by 6 months. My guess is to give her some time in the job so she can qualify for it. I agree she is proving herself more than capable and I hope she gets it because if they bring in another outsider with her in the acting position there will be merry hell for the Governor," a Sails Sandy posted.
Governor Daniel Pruce recently admitted that Ms Vanterpool was doing a good job as Acting CoP.

I won't agree that because of this she should be given the position of Top Cop but she has proven that she's not to big to be on the beat.
