Walt, I am sorry to learn this happened to you and your wife, and I hope you both heal soon although the whole experience will probably never escape you. This island that relies on tourism for 85% of its existence is going downhill fast. Remember that not all SXM visitors are TTOL members or check in with this site, and I can only imagine the number of criminal acts that take place, like yours, that doesn't get advertised on the net. The government doesn't care is the truth. Period.
