    RJR just reported that soldiers will NOT be patrolling Negril. Police will handle the visible patrols .

    The army will be working in the back ground

    Whenever someone starts with a flame-throwing topic like "Sending in the army?????", it was sure to conjure up Humvees, long rifles, battle gear, etc. but those that know a little about the runnings realized right from the start that the "Jack Boots" approach to the problem would not materialize immediately over one unfortunate tourist death.

    I have seen the soldiers deployed before around Jamaica like in St. Ann and St. Elizabeth and it never rose to a West Kingston garrison level. The Jamaican Government is well aware of the perception of martial law this could portray.

    The police do need some assistance and I personally am happy that the soldiers are being brought in to give it.
