Home Invasion Survivor Demands Stand-Your-Ground Laws

A 61-year-old resident of Central Trinidad, who survived a recent home invasion, is expressing his frustration over the government’s delay in implementing the much-anticipated stand-your-ground laws. The owner of a transport company based in Longdenville, he shared his views at his Ravine Sable home, stating his desire for the authorities to enhance security measures, especially with the Christmas season approaching, a period often characterized by a spike in violent crimes. He is of the belief that stand-your-ground laws would provide law-abiding citizens with an improved opportunity for self-defense.
