Statement by the men of The Citizens Advisory Body, St Paul’s Policing District

The Citizens Advisory Body of St. Paul’s Policing District has issued a profound statement of condolence and condemnation following the tragic death of Aleandra Lett Hypolite, an event that has sent shockwaves throughout Grenada. The organization expressed its deepest sympathies to Hypolite’s family, parents, and loved ones during what they described as a period of “immense grief and anguish.”

In their official statement, the advisory body emphasized that no family should endure such devastating loss and no community should remain passive when confronted with acts of violence. As representatives working collaboratively with law enforcement to promote community safety, accountability, and public trust, the organization delivered a strong condemnation of all sexual violence incidents.

The statement characterized such conduct as not merely an assault on individuals but as a fundamental violation of human dignity that threatens the moral foundation of society. While acknowledging public demands for swift justice, the advisory body simultaneously called for calm and patience, urging citizens to allow investigative processes to proceed without interference while maintaining cooperation with the Royal Grenada Police Force.

The organization issued a national call to action, advocating for renewed commitment to protecting women, girls, and all children while upholding the rule of law. They specifically encouraged zero tolerance policies toward derogatory speech, harassment, attacks, rape, and murder directed at women and girls, while emphasizing respect for all human life.

The advisory body concluded with a message of spiritual support for the Hypolite family, expressing hope that “the God of peace and comfort” would provide strength during this difficult time. The statement represents both a mourning of specific tragedy and a broader societal critique regarding violence against women in Grenada.
