RCIPS, DoA seize 40 birds used for cock fighting

Birds used for cock fighting found in Bodden Town

(CNS): The RCIPS officers and Department of Agriculture staff raided an address on Fig Tree Drive in Bodden Town on Friday, 31 January, and seized more than 40 birds, some of which had been used for cock fighting, police said. Officers also seized cock fighting paraphernalia, and one man was warned for intended prosecution for cruelty to animals.

Cock fighting paraphernalia seized by police

Police said the raid was one of a series of operations in the Eastern Districts during a day of action to address ongoing community concerns. RCIPS officers from the Traffic Management, Firearms Response, Uniform Operations, and Community Policing Units were joined by staff from Customs and Border Control (CBC) and the Department of Agriculture (DoA).

“The team visited various locations throughout the Eastern Districts to disrupt antisocial behaviour and illegal activity and provide reassurance to the community,” the RCIPS said in a release about the raids. “The operations resulted in multiple arrests and prosecutions, along with the recovery of property used in illegal activity.”

Two men were arrested on suspicion of illegal gambling, one at Coe Wood Beach and another at an address on North Side Road. CBC officers arrested one man at an address on Bodden Town Road for overstaying. The police said he had been on the island illegally since 2022.

This follows another overstaying arrest made in East End two days earlier, on 29 January.

Along with gambling and cock fighting paraphernalia, officers also seized almost $4,000 in cash, though the police did not specify which crime the cash was associated with. Twelve drivers were also given tickets for speeding.

Inspector Kevin Bogle, the Area Commander for the Easter Districts, said the operations were part of the continued efforts to target antisocial and illegal activities, which often fuel more serious crime.

“We are thankful to the members of the community for relaying their concerns to us, and to our partners for their support in this initiative. The public can look forward to ongoing operations targeting known areas of concern as we work to make the Eastern Districts, and Cayman as a whole, safer,” he said.

    Typical riff raff behavior. Let’s make Cayman great again and deport these garbage people somewhere else. Who cares if they’re Caymanian at this point.

    The only anti-social behavior the RCIP Jamaicans target is Caymanian anti-social behavior. George Town is rife with illegal gambling, illegal cock fighting, illegal drugs, illegal food shops operating without license, businesses operating without license and permit cons all being perpetrated and led by Jamaicans.

    Cayman is a clown show, where the sensible have become and out of touch master class while handing over control of the islands day to day operations to foreigners of every nationality.

    Will an affirmative vote on the gambling referendum legitimize wagering on this cruelty? Some might expect it so.

    Like a Swiss watch, every morning around 5:30am, there’s an old truck pulling a sled of canine kennels loaded with barking angry dogs heading northbound to West Bay. What on Earth is that operation all about? If those are strays, why would they be transported back and forth in such quantities on a daily basis? Something doesn’t add up.

      Those are rafts of Poodles and Dingos which are imported and distributed under cloak, to supplant the diminishing numbers and vivacity of canines of the soil.

    Last time I turned up to a cockfight, I was very embarrassed when they asked where my rooster was and why I wasn’t wearing pants.

    It’s a wonder, since this activity has been going on for some time now. Probably targeted just now since some on the RCIPS officers lost their money betting on cocks in the ring?

    Re: The Great Chicken Crackdown—RCIPS Declares Victory Over Barnyard Crime

    Citizens of Absurdistan, rejoice! The Royal Cayman Islands Poultry Service (RCIPS) has heroically neutralized a dangerous poultry crime syndicate. No longer will these feathered fiends terrorize our beloved islands!

    But wait… what’s that in the distance?
    Ah yes, it’s actual criminals continuing their crime spree—completely unbothered.

    What Just Happened?

    • The RCIPS, in collaboration with the Department of Agriculture (DoA), has conducted an extensive operation to seize 40 birds allegedly involved in cockfighting.

    • Meanwhile, financial crime, government corruption, reckless driving, and violent assaults remain as unsolved mysteries.

    • But don’t worry, dear citizens—justice has been served… to chickens.

    RCIPS’ Priorities: A Tactical Breakdown

    1. Selective Law Enforcement—A Bold Strategy!
    • Political corruption? Sorry, can’t investigate that.
    • Money laundering? Ongoing investigation.
    • Violent crime? It’s complicated.
    • 40 chickens? FULL TACTICAL DEPLOYMENT.

    2. Misplaced Priorities—Cracking Down on Birds While Criminals Run Free
    • Apparently, Cayman’s biggest crime problem isn’t reckless driving, unsolved murders, or bribery—it’s… roosters in an underground fight club.
    • Imagine what they could accomplish if they pursued human criminals with the same enthusiasm.

    3. Public Relations Over Public Safety—Because Headlines Matter More Than Arrests
    • The RCIPS needed a “win”—and what better way to look effective than cracking down on chicken-based organized crime?
    • Perhaps they should consider rebranding corrupt officials as “free-range politicians”—then maybe some actual arrests would happen.

    Meanwhile, Back in the Real World…

    🐓 40 Birds Confiscated—RCIPS Mission Accomplished!

    🚗 Drivers still crashing into roundabouts—Maybe if they were riding chickens, the police would notice.

    💰 Millions missing from government oversight—But hey, cockfighting is under control.

    🔫 Crime rates continue climbing—Don’t worry, the birds won’t be a threat.

    ⚖️ Zero major corruption convictions—But RCIPS will gladly lock up poultry.

    At this rate, the rogue’s gallery will have no choice but to declare these chickens the only criminals to ever face consequences in Cayman.

    Final Verdict: Cayman’s Police Priorities Are Officially a Joke

    The roads are lawless. The economy is in peril. The government is spiraling.

    But don’t worry—the chickens have been neutralized.

    RCIPS, your work here is done.

    Post Scriptum: A Note on Actual Cruelty

    Although the rogue’s gallery may jest about the right to vote for chickens (and cutlery!), cruelty against animals is no laughing matter. Countless pets, farm animals, and wildlife suffer due to negligence, abuse, and indifference.

    Perhaps one day, the RCIPS will apply this level of effort to crimes that truly impact Cayman’s people—and its animals.

    Until then, expect more arrests in the war against poultry.

    Disclaimer : The subject inversion is completely intended, painting the chicken as master criminals , whereas the innocent beasts clearly aren’t.

      Your posts are getting/have become a distraction for the issues you sadly attempt to discuss. Too much nonsense.
