In the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa, Jamaica is reeling. Entire communities have been left in ruins, homes flattened, roads destroyed, and countless families displaced. From Portland to Clarendon, Kingston to St. Mary, the island carries the deep scars of one of the most devastating storms in recent memory. Yet even as the rain subsides and the floodwaters begin to recede, one truth remains clear — Jamaica’s greatest strength has always been its people. And right now, those people need help more than ever. This is a call, not to the government or to politicians, but to the sons and daughters of Jamaica who have risen to fame and fortune. To the entertainers, influencers, athletes, and public figures — both at home and abroad — the time has come to stand up for your fans. These are the same people who streamed your music day and night, who wore your brand, who shared your posts, who prayed for you when you were just starting out.

Fast & Furious… but Slow to Face Justice? Arrest Warrant Issued for Tyrese Gibson
When it comes to celebrity culture, it often seems as though Hollywood stars are operating under a different set of rules. The recent arrest warrant issued for Fast & Furious actor Tyrese Gibson has raised eyebrows and questions in equal measure. Accused of animal cruelty after his Cane Corso dogs allegedly mauled and killed a neighbour’s beloved pet.
Gibson has so far failed to turn himself in despite being given multiple opportunities. It leaves many asking: when do stars start believing they are above the law, and why do some appear to dodge accountability that ordinary citizens would face without question?
There is also the troubling issue of responsibility when it comes to dangerous animals. Dogs, no matter their breed, are a reflection of the care, control, and boundaries set by their owners. If Gibson’s dogs could not differentiate friend from threat, then one must ask whether they should have been left in his care at all.
In the United States, laws vary by state, but generally, dogs involved in fatal attacks can be seized, rehomed, or in more serious circumstances, euthanised. Owners may face fines, bans on keeping certain breeds, and, as in this case, criminal charges. It is not about punishing the animal—it is about ensuring safety and demanding that owners face the consequences of their negligence.

What makes this case so compelling—and so disturbing—is the symbolism. Hollywood stars are public figures with platforms, and their behaviour sets examples, whether they like it or not. When a celebrity resists cooperating with the authorities, it sends a dangerous message: that money and fame can be shields against justice.

But the law is meant to apply to everyone equally, whether you’re a megastar or a neighbour mourning a loyal companion. This case isn’t just about one tragic dog attack; it is about the integrity of the system, the need for accountability, and the question of whether fame should ever put anyone beyond the reach of the law.
