(Trinidad Express) – Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar yesterday referenced two quotations about morality, violence and the burden carried by those who protect society when asked about the Kaia Sealy matter.
She was responding to questions from the Express about public outrage over the police issuing warrants for Sealy to be charged with manslaughter in relation to the death of her common-law husband, Joshua Samaroo.
In a brief response on the issue, the Prime Minister said she was reminded of two sayings.
The first: “The most evil among us always expect the rest of us to live by morals that they don’t possess themselves.”
The second: “People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.”
Persad-Bissessar also fielded questions on several other issues.
