Capital punishment is a debate that grips civil society anew with
every incidence of homicide. The cry from a majority of
stakeholders is a desperate plea to enforce the death penalty which
has been derogated by the courts, at home and abroad. The abatement
of capital punishment takes place amidst a tidal wave of
unrelenting crimes against the person, namely murder. The branches
of government seem bereft at best to provide a remedy and at worse
unable to enforce the law as it relates capital punishment in the
Bahamas. Added to this is an uneasy public whose trust in the
executive, legislative and judicial branches of government is
noticeably waning. Additionally, outside forces, led by
abolitionists, are bearing down on the Bahamas with a view of
nudging the nation and the Caribbean into an era of life
imprisonment for murder as opposed to death by hanging as its
penalty. Toote sets forth these issues with striking clarity,
offering practical remedies to help settle the controversy
surrounding the death penalty in the Bahamas and the Caribbean.
'Capital Punishment in the Bahamas and the Caribbean' in light of
the Privy Council's moratorium is required reading for all who
desire an appreciation of the subject of capital punishment,
including students, religious leaders and professionals in the
legal arena.
