I am hoping that the Frank E Flowers screenplay version we are all now imagining did not actually happen, and that they find this guy somewhere soon.
I seem to remember it was the missing teacher’s friends who put up fliers, organised the searches, and payed for the private helicopter fees.
This man’s ‘friends’ have been arrested in connection with drug and other offences in relationship to disappearance.
When the Nurse Karry Ann went missing, there were numerous searches organised by her family and friends.
Doesn’t seem to me that there was any racial element to it.
16:06 I agree with you. I thought they had found this man. I am appauled that there is no big search went out for this man. Remember sometime last year or early this year the man from England who went missing on the West Bay Beach? There were people from all over the Island and offisland looking for him.
Caymanians and foreign people on here you disgust me. How could you all be so thoughtless not to have organize a search party for the man, and SHAME ON YOU RCIP for not keeping the public updated with news of this missing man. No continued up to date news from any of the News stations or Police. Should I feel prejudice on this Island? Yes> Just sit back and watch how the police work for some people. They spend thousands of gallons of gassolene using the boat and helicopter for CERTAIN PEOPLE when they are missing and they could not care less about someone who is B—-K SHAME ON YOU, and talking about christian people? Then again where are the churches when these things happen. Can the churches do anything beside hold meetings to collect money. THE CHURCHES ON THIS ISLAND need to do more than they are doing. They helps with absolutely nothing. SELFISH. Living in their own world. I do hope 2013 bring on some changes with the Churches, because you are the worse example of showing love I have seen.
Our country needs cleansing from the inside out. Too many have run a mock and threw eggs on our faces. Don't blame the churches, blame it on greed, short sightedness, and the almighty dollar.
It to late.
Now that you know he is still missing, why don't you become proactive and start the ball rolling; maybe everyone is like you – sitting back, pointing fingers and waiting for someone else to do something.
It was the family of missing Nathan who organised and coordinated the searches, who handed out flyers, who created websites and kept them updated and who raised money to pay for the helicopter searches. No racism here apart from what you are trying to stir up with your venomous post.
Thoughts and prayers are with all the families.
Take a chill pill mr. Race card. See pale face response below.
I trust that anyone with any useful information will contact the authorities. This man needs to be found.
What is so sad about this, because he is Guyanese not to much was done, no search parties, no flyers, no rewards, nothing…..no metro dade..wait don't we have a K9 unit that could have been used or is that another one of those "wasted money" deals….
True. If he was a paleface, nuff search parties on de road. And I would've heard of this! This is news to me. Poor guy.
Next time a story like this is released in the public media, I will bring a copy over and read it to you so it won’t still be ‘news to you’ 2 weeks later and you can roll up your sleeves and pitch in and help in your way by saying “poor guy” in a more timely manner.

You speak with forked tongue.
