Lawyer questions US immigration’s holding (Jamaican) men cleared by court

“Judge Chris McAliley of the Southern District of Florida [US] District Court terminated the detention against all four Jamaicans on the basis that there was in fact no evidence of a find of cocaine and that instead, it was merely gasoline which had been misidentified as such, and ordered that the men be sent to immigration to be sent home to Jamaica. As a result, there were no charges whatsoever laid against any of the four men,” Samuels told a virtual press briefing yesterday.

“These are Jamaicans who left Jamaica declaring their port of destination and armed with their passports, which were examined by Jamaican immigration. These passports were taken from them by the US Coast Guard. We now demand that, through our foreign ministry, the passports of these four Jamaicans be returned to them to facilitate their departure from the United States, back home, by way of an ordinary international flight,” Samuels said.

1831 was a pivotal year in Jamaica’s history

“It was the year when Messrs Jordon and Osborne — after they had established the Watchman paper — were both imprisoned; the former twice, for five months each time. At the close of the second term of imprisonment, Mr Edward Jordon was tried for his life on the charge of having published seditious matter in the Watchman. The paragraph which was denominated ‘seditious’ matter was this: ‘Now that the member for Westmoreland (Mr Beaumont) has come over to our side, we will, by a long pull, a strong pull, and a pull altogether, bring down the system by the run, knock off the fetters, and let the oppressed go free.’ On the day of Mr Jordon’s trial the courtroom was thronged with… men, who had armed themselves, and were determined, if the sentence of death were pronounced upon Mr Jordon, to rescue him at whatever hazard. It is supposed that their purpose was conjectured by the judges — at any rate, they saw fit to acquit Mr J and give him his enlargement.”

Long lines at San Antonio asymptomatic testing sites encouraging to city, medical workers

“The demand has been really heavy over these holidays. We are testing about 3,000 people a day, which is up significantly,” Mary Ullmann Japhet, communications director of Community Labs.

Japhet said Community Labs is capable of testing up to 12,000 per day. They are encouraging people to keep coming.

“It’s the FDA gold standard — it’s a PCR test — and results are in within 24 hours. So that speed, the lab capacity, and the fact that it is the most accurate test available is really key,” she said.

Japhet said many people who are tested without symptoms end up having COVID-19.

“Science tells us that 50% or so of COVID cases are spread by asymptomatic silent spreaders. These are people who are innocently walking around in the world not knowing they have the virus and are spreading it to others before they themselves have symptoms,” Japhet said.

That’s why she and others across the city are thrilled people are proactively taking responsibility at a time when COVID-19 cases have never spiked higher in San Antonio. This week’s case numbers prompted city and county leaders to close bars once again and limit restaurant capacity to 50%.

“If we can get those people who are positive out of our population until they’re better, we’re going to help suppress the virus,” Japhet said.
