Drug charges! Name of political candidate’s son in arrest blotter

The name of the son of a Virgin Islands Party (VIP) candidate has appeared in the Royal Virgin Islands Police Force’s (RVIPF) latest arrest blotter for drug-related offences.

According to the blotter, 28-year-old Aaron Headley of Diamond Estate was arrested and charged on March 17 for Possession of A Controlled Drug and Possession of A Controlled Drug with intent to Supply.

Other details of the arrest were not outlined in the blotter but highly-placed sources told our news centre that Headley was apprehended during a police operation in the Ghetto/Crabbe Lot area of Road Town on the day in question.

BVI News understands that Headley was among a small group of other persons who were arrested during the operation. Reports to our news centre are that more than 90 grams of green vegetable matter suspected to be cannabis was recovered.

Sources say the items in question were recovered from Headley’s vehicle and were found in an unspecified number of dime bags.

It is not clear when Headley is scheduled to appear in court to answer to the charges.

    Not very good timing by the boy – his Mother’s campaign is not going very well and most people don’t know that she is standing in the 2nd yet. At least she will now be in the news!

    BVI News this is low. He is an adult person (28 years) according to your story. Why on earth is the actions of an adult person being used to malign their parent. Do you have news that his mother was involved in his criminal activity? Or news that his connection to her is somehow getting him preferential treatment in the justice system? If the answer is no to both the aforementioned questions….then this really should not be news.

    It needs to be legalized or decriminalizes yesterday for the health of our people! Let people grow their own at home.

    No offense but why should people have to go to a place called The Ghetto looking for a medicinal plant.

    Especially one that was an essential service during covid in the US.

    “Not very good timing by the boy” good one though. Hiding it comes with prohibition. We have a whole two generations of people hiding green vegetable matter. Thanks government.

    Getting caught with green vegetable matter is always bad timing.

    Now they want to search there? uh

    If People will only think for themselves and make decisions based on facts and the intended actions of Personnel contesting this Election, we could hopefully end up with an Administration that will fully have the People’s interest at hand.
    Labeling all within a Party does not fairly justify the character of an Individual. So therefore People need to focus on Candidates as an individual and not focus on Political Party Affiliation. The mentality of most will cause the demise of Political Aspirants by contrast ing them as the Political Party in whole.
    Be fair, but I resumed that the Rivals of the Party don’t care they are in opposition and will blame the whole Party for Individual’s misconduct.

    They dont care if we plosion ourselves, we love deadly oleander landscaping.

    Stuff that makes us feel all the materialism & social hierarchy & wars, should be taken super seriously as there is nothing more to it or special about life, go for it.

    Any plant that can lead to new ideas, feelings & first hand divine experiences and messes with the man made matrix, the comforting story’s like big bang which explains nothing as to why anything exists at all.

    Anything that reveals our civilization’s ignorance first hand, that’s a no no.

    They dont want people running back to camp in a panic like scooby doo failing to explain he saw something which no one else has seen.

    “There’s no such thing as ghosts Scooby give it a rest, were trying to sleep here… dont wake us up!”

    Some ah ayo sound so bloody ridiculous!!! She’s the mother of 3 not 1, why is her maternal skills being questioned? If ayo don’t want to vote for her then don’t, whatever your reasons may be, don’t. Tis she send he there? Is he using the money to help fund her campaign?

    VIP dis, VIP dat, get ah life!! As if NDP & PVIM is squeaky clean. When you don’t have anything substantial to use you pick trivial things.

    I ain’t a fan of this woman, I don’t believe she got a prayer of getting elected but I applaud her courage to step out to even try, but if you guys have to go so far to reach to discredit her, it means that on the surface or just beneath you got nothing besides how you PERSONALLY feel about her.
