Call Out K.D. Knight's Disrespectful Behavior in Trafigura Court Hearing



The behavior of K.D. Knight at the Trafigura court hearing yesterday is not expected of an attorney who has achieved the status of "QC" or for any litigation attorney in court whatsoever. As an elderly, long-standing attorney, his actions in court towards Judge Lennox Campbell and others clearly do not set a good example for other attorneys. It was quite clear that Knight had intentions to be disruptive and only demonstrates that he:

  • is a bully who is used to dominating others
  • is short tempered
  • demonstrates divisive behavior if he does not get his way
  • is used to laying the blame on another when he is the wrong doer 
  • has been given a badge of honor as "sheriff" so he may believe he is above the law and can do whatever he wants in a courthouse
  • arrogant 
The question is why was no action taken against Knight by Justice Lennox Campbell instead of putting up with the impertinent challenges. The behavior of Knight is just another example of the indiscipline that exists in Jamaica. One sees it on the streets every day, but just would not think that it would be played out in the courthouse by a man who has been practicing law for so many years.
