Nassau, Bahamas — The skyrocketing crime wave rocking the Bahamas has scuffed out the life of another citizen, this time a Worshipful Master in the Lodge.
Bahamas Press agents on the ground in the Garden Hills community confirmed late last night, the country’s 102nd murdered victim is 40-year-old, Marvin Kerr.
The victim, we are told, was gunned down like a dog in the street just outside his residence on Taurus Court in Ideal Estates just off Soldier Road. Sources believe the incident was a result of a second robbery attempt at his home gone bad.
Readers would remember how back in late August this year, bandits entered the home of Kerr and proceeded to rob him and then shot him while holding him hostage inside.
Kerr recovered from that incident, but was not so lucky this time. He was killed by bandits with the hearts of HOGS AND DEMONS! They cannot give life, but yet, continue to take it.
Witnesses at the crime scene tell us blood was splattered in every direction where the victim laid. He was shot multiple times with one fatal bullet to the head. The slaying was clearly done with a high-powered weapon, as the bandits made good their escape vanishing into the night.
This latest attack casts a dangerous shadow on the nation’s criminal justice system, which is responsible for the murder of countless citizens. Hubert Ingraham and Tommy Turnquest have gone on record; suggesting criminals are killing criminals without offering any solution to the crime fight.
We wonder if getting robbed constitutes one being a criminal?
We report, yinner decide!
Mr. Kerr was a really good person. let’s not speculate on what happened, but let us pray for his wife who witnessed this slaying. Also, I have already declared that, that person will have a Nebucanezzer(phonetic) spirit. They will go back to that house and try to clean that blood up. trust me God gat this one!!!
Mind boggling indeed! In my life I have been fortunate enough to see what a beautiful country The Bahamas are. Yes, there are beautiful waters, sandy beaches and an endless array of attractions to satisfy any tourist. But more importantly it is a country filled with beautiful, warm people that will work tirelessly and bend over backwards to make sure friends and family are happy and “straight!” Marvin was at the top of the list when it comes to those Bahamians. He welcomed me into his family over six years ago and insured me that I would always be taken care of when I came “home.” And he did just that on every visit since. Create your scenarios of what happened to him and why if you want. There is no scenario that give another the right to takeaway someones son, husband, father, brother, nephew, uncle, cousin, friend. Those that truly knew Marvin know what a wonderfully generous, caring person he was and what a senseless tragedy this is!! I fear for the future of The Bahamas and the friends and family I have there. It is so sad to see such ugly things happening in such a beautiful place! May Marvin R.I.P.
My God Bahamas, it is so sad to read and watch on your news about all of the violent crime that’s happening in your beautiful country and all most of you can find time to do is come up with scenarios as to why Marvin is dead. This is mind boggling! Please have some sympathy, Love and compassion for you fellow man. From the looks of things down there it’s only a matter of time before the criminals show up on your door steps. R.I.P Marvin my prayers go out to your family.
I AGREE SOME OF DESE PPLZ EEN EVEN NO NTN 2 B TALKN BUT HAV DA MOST 2 SAY IF IT WAS DEY PPLZ I WOUNDER IF DEY COMMENT WUD OF STILL B DA SAME…
I have the solution to slow down the MURDER count in this country.
It is a guarantee, if the Government were to declare NO JUNKANOO!!! Until the murder count is reduced.
The Junkanooers themselves will hang the murderers.
To say someone being murdered is revenge killing as if to say it’s ok, is sick. To assume it’s revenge killing because of the way it was done is just downright ignorant. People it’s never ok for someone to be murdered, stop putting your spin on this matter because of your political affiliations. For every 100K people in Miami dade there are 12 murders per year, if you multiply 100k by 3 you get 300k( which by the way is about the population of Nassau) thats an average of 36 murders for 300 thousand people…we’re over 100 murders, in September. Do the math. We’re animals!!!
Lets stop blaming the government for every crime when its us who grew up our kids with no morals and respect for the other person’s life. always swearing for your kids and hiding them when they do wrong. we have to be held accountable for our own laziness ad wrong teachings, its the only way we could start to find a solution!!
We can all recall BP warning us of a blood bath in one of these Lodges.
Mr. Pierre Dupuch also said on a Radio Talk Show that Media have changed in the Bahamas and BP seems to be so ahead of all media in the country.
In fact BP seem to know of a murder before it happen.

Hmmmm, Inspector Ken Strachan may come looking for ya with dat one!
YOU ARE CORRECT NASSAU GONE FUNKY, VERY CORRECT, BUT OUR BLOODBATH WAS IN REFERENCE TO THE INTERNAL ATTACKS IN THE ORGANIZATION HEADED BY CARL CULMER AND NOT THE ONE ASSOCIATED WITH MR. KERR.
OUR ABILITY TO BREAK THE NEWS ON MURDERS ACROSS THIS BLOODY COUNTRY IS SIMPLE! THIS WEEKEND TOMMY TURNQUEST IS ACTING PM, AND BOY WE TREMBLE FOR OUR PEOPLE. PRAY!!!!!
BP
100% of executed criminals never commit another crime. Just a reminder
Everyone seems to missing the point Marvin has been murdered. His life was taken away. How, Why? is not the issue now , his family is hurting. He is a husband and father, My heart goes out to his wife and kids.
yall need to start hanging
if yall were to start hanging it would be like this
I remember every evening sitting down watching the news every day in jamaica to see who dead and who is scared 10 years ago when i was attending UWI . Our laws and lack of enforcement of them have given criminala a NO FEAR ATTITUDE HERE IN NASSAU. I do believein prayers . WE all must confess our sins to God and ask him to have mercy over our land for we appear to be at war with each other . We are fighting wickedness in high places. We need peace and love. we must be our brother,s keeper . So many people are suffering .
you know, i am a businessman. i am scared to even do business and even more scared to go home after a hard day’s work. this place is serious. you try to make a living and it cost you life. life is rough here in the bahamas.
Obviously the Govt is impotent and they ripped apart the Police,Immigration and Customs out of petty spite,and callousness.Now we expect them to enact laws and enforce them as the criminals see that they are all talk and no action.I say to the Govt if you cant stand the heat get out of the kitchen.To my brothers and sisters in the church ask your spiritual leaders to rebuke the Govt for saying that some Bahamians are more equal than others in regards to them saying that some lives snuffed out dont matter.
think about the way he was killed, that was revenge. dat bandit came back to finish his job and to get paid. the 1st time was a warning and he fought back, so they got angry and show him we run dis. it is sad, but u dont no wat he did to dese people. they look innocent in the day but check dem by night. demons
For God sake Nikki stop while you are ahead. You dont know the young man, So stop talking **** about you dont know what he did to dese people. DONT DO IT! Let Marvin RIP. MIND YOUR BUSINESS IF YOU DONT HAVE ANYTHING SENSIBLE TO SAY!
It is obvious that this was not robbery. They wait a little bit over a month to come back and kill him. I just pray for the strength of the family at this time. May God be with them and give them comfort.
If I was a detective my first read will be a hit. Even with all the shooting there is less than 1 in 100 chance that you will be shot.With 350,000 people, I doubt we have 3500 shootings a year. So for it to happen to the same person twice in a year usually indicates something sinister. Even upon further analysis robbers rarely purposely shot in the head. Regardless, the incident is sad and it points to the state of the world today. The Bible is clear, that these things must occur before the end.
Finally someone going to church an praying about this vexing social problem. Now things will change. Evrything will be alright. Pray on.
Dam, I better make sure my life insurance premiums up-to-date cus these murdering young boys killing anything and anyone with a job and two cents to rub together.
I don’t know what else to say other than Bahamian men and women are in clear and present danger in their own country. This country does not have a working criminal justice system. In fact I would venture to warn other countries that NP in its present NO Law state is an ideal hiding place for international criminals.
Unfortunately, when you put a dog in a corner don’t be surprised if that dog gets mad and goes for ya throat.
The average Bahamian will eventually get sick and phukin tired of this chit and that’s when real blood will flow down the streets.
As God-fearing Bahamians we will have to eventually form justice-associations and target these criminals and their sponsoring-families ourselves.
BP lightening doesn’t strick the same place twice…I smell a rat on dis one
Lizard what you smell is irrelevant!!! A good man is dead. A husband and father is dead. A brother and friend is dead. No one deserves to die this way …so smell as much rat as you like. He was a good guy and did not deserve it! I hope his murdered dies by the hands of wild dogs just like him for he does not does not deserve to breath God’s air. May Marvin’s soul RIP.
Who is sending these young men into the night to kill men and women and destroy people’s lives? Is it really worth it? Don’t you have a conscience? Think of your parents and children when you decide to go through with these heinous acts of violence. Remember there are consequences and if it doesn’t happen immediately it will later;you will suffer and your families will suffer, because what goes around comes around. Remember the Lord don’t sleep nor slumber!
i have not heard anything about this media not in today paper or daily newspapers
Demon i have to agree with media here. You said it so calmly like you read the paper this morning while sipping a cup of coffee and you went, “oh, another guy shot at home. Looks like he was into some stuff. I wonder what’s in the business section see if there are any bargains I can find”.
I mean come on, crime is killin’ this nation. To add insult to injury, I don’t consider the ruthless killing of anyone as finishing a “job”. What is this, housekeeping or maid services?
Nassau Gone Funky Eh!
i have not heard anything about this media not in today paper or daily newspapers
That is so sad another one gone dread!!!! When will we learn how to love and stop hating one another.God help this bahama land only you and you alone can help us!! WE NEED IT
It is to STRANGE that almost one month after his first attempted robbery and shooting he is now DEAD. I really do not think this is robbery at all. But at this time I can only pray for the strength of his family. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of them. May the be strengthened during this time.
It is just to strange that within a month of his first attack he is now dead. Something fishy about this BIG TIME. I can only pray for the strength of his family during this time. My thoughts and prayers go out to them.
Marvin Kerr was robbed! YOU CAN CONSPIRE WHAT YOU WANT TO BELIEVE IT IS ALL YA WANT! THEY KILLED MARVIN! This is the second time this has happened to him. WHY WOULD SUCH EVIL PEOPLE BE ALLOWED TO KILL PEOPLE ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY?
WHYYYYYYYYYY? Why would people even harbour murderers around them? We am going to Church at some point today andWe are going to declare to EVERY MURDERER AND THOSE WHO HARBOUR THEM, THAT OUR PRAYERS ARE AGAINST YOU! BP IS UPSET THIS MORNING!
I dont believe that it was a robbery,there must be some kind of death squad in this town,because obviously those guys went to finish the job.
I agree that this was not robbery. Why would you shoot someone multiple times if it’s robbery and then shoot him in the head to make sure he’s dead? This is crazy! How do they sleep at night? You have mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, sisters, brothers. How can you take a life and not think about your own families and that what goes around comes around? How can you look in the mirror or wake up every morning knowing that you took a life? Whether the person is shady or not (not implying that Mr. Kerr is shady, I don’t know him), you do not have the right to take someone else’s life. Remember there are consequences;it may not be now but you will suffer the consequences. Who is sending these young men into the night to kill and destroy people’s lives? WHO IS IT? It is definately not better in the Bahamas, not any longer.
Because they are hitmen! Not professional hitmen like we watch on tv, just some lunitic-punk with a glock/9mm a few bullets who probably got paid $500 to $5,000 to kill somebody. They don’t think about their families. Many of these killers fit the profile of young men who come from single family homes, aka “who is my daddy Mommy?”. They don’t rob you when carrying out these alledged hits simply because they got paid already or promised payment once execution has occurred. So the victim’s $100-300 in their wallet means nothing to these boys after they shoot you.
The sad thing what really hurt me about this incident is that Marvin was well known and well received just like the late Neil Percentie was. Alot of my friends and myself was just on BlackBeard’s Cay enjoying sun sand and sea the other day and Marvin and his crew took us out there on the ferry boat. He even gave us his personal sunfly/mosquitoe repellent even though the island’s mini-store wasn’t opened at the time.
I don’t know what to say about New Providence. Think i’m gonna ask for a transfer back home on the island before this Christmas rush.
