BASSETERRE, St.Kitts (Friday 20th June 2018) – Protestors who recently took to the streets demanding answers regarding the controversial fatal traffic accident involving 20-year old Tau ‘TJ’ Johnson of Buckely’s Housing Project might continue their efforts as a public outcry surrounding the young man’s death.

When contacted after Johnson’s funeral service yesterday, protest spokesperson Teshari Liburd when asked by this reporter about whether or not the group would be staging any other demonstrations, told “I was just thinking about it.”
She shared that she would discuss it with others to decide.

On Monday 9th July, a silent group of protestors-including Liburd- took to the streets demanding answers in a demonstration dubbed ‘Justice For TJ’. That protest featured scores of young people mostly teenagers and persons in their 20s.

“The protest was basically for justice for Tau. We felt like an injustice has been done and there hasn’t been any explanations; anything at all. We feel as though what happened is being covered up by the authorities and we demand to know what happened, what transpired. We need to answers basically,” Liburd said then.

The next day (Tuesday), the protest action continued on the premises of the Joseph N. France General Hospital as demonstrators showed their displeasure regarding the way the Emergency Medical Services personnel handled Johnson on the accident scene.
