Barbados Murder Statistics April 2018

I recorded five unnatural deaths for the month of April. Three of them were stabbing and shooting related (Onica King, 36, Dwayne Dublin, 36 and Dwayne Forde, 33). Total number of deaths recorded from January 1 to April 30 = 14.

A few words on the data collection methodology employed. My data sources are The Media, i.e., The Nation, Barbados Today, Loop Barbados, CBC, et cetera. Reports on unnatural deaths are collected by myself – as and when time permits – and are keyed into a spreadsheet. Unnatural deaths (e.g., murder) are deaths not caused by natural causes (e.g. old age). From there, I classify deaths by various categories, such as parish, age group, et cetera. Charts are then produced and published on my blog caribbeansignal.com.
