On 3 September, Governor, George Fergusson, issued the following statement, saying: I feel for the family of Mr Dill and am deeply sad that they and his friends should suffer this shocking bereavement. I know that statements from public figures can only have a limited use on occasions like this. But I do appeal to the community around Mr Dill and the wider community in Bermuda. First, to do everything possible to support the family – which I am confident will happen – and second to do all in its power to discourage any form of retaliation, if, as the police suggest, this awful murder may be gang-related. Bringing more misery to more families is a futile and wicked cycle. Anyone with the slightest ability to influence this should do their very best to prevent it. This won’t always be easy. It could mean speaking to a friend or family member at risk of getting caught up in the situation. Or it could, as others have repeated, mean contacting the Police or Crimestoppers. But if you can do something, I ask to you to do it – for the sake of those involved as well as for Bermuda as a whole.
