Hoewel hy uit die polisiediens getree het, sal hy steeds uit sy pad gaan om diegene wat by hom om hulp kom aanklop, tot die beste van sy vermo\u00eb te dien omdat die gemeenskap sy lewe is. <\/p>\n
So s\u00ea AO Burnett Prince (60) wat Maandag (30 September) die tuig n\u00e1 38 jaar diens in die polisie neergel\u00ea het. Prince was tot sy aftrede verbonde aan die Rawsonville-speurtak. <\/p>\n
Prince, wat oorspronklik van Wellington is, se polisieloopbaan het op 30 Oktober 1987 begin toe hy as konstabel by die Springbok-polisiekan\u00adtoor aangestel is. Hy was toe maar 22 jaar oud. <\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea in die twee jaar wat hy daar diens gedoen het, het hy ook met die Suid-Afrikaanse Narkotikaburo (Sanab) asook die goud-en-diamant-tak gewerk. <\/p>\n
Volgens hom het hy ook afgedeelde diens by die grenspos van Namibi\u00eb naby Vioolsdrift verrig.<\/p>\n
Hy is in 1990 na die Tulbagh-polisiekantoor verplaas. Dis hier waar hy later tot sersant en toe speurder bevorder is. Prince het 11 jaar by Tulbagh-polisiekantoor gewerk. <\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea hy het in 2001 vir \u2019n oorplasing na die Rawsonville-polisie gevra omdat sy vrou, Mercia, \u2019n maatskaplike werker, by die departement van maatskaplike ontwikkeling in Worcester werk. <\/p>\n
Die egpaar het in daardie stadium in Worcester gewoon. Hulle het hulle in 2022 in Rawsonville gaan vestig. <\/p>\n
Burnett s\u00ea hy het in sy loopbaan verskeie moord-, strafbare-manslag- en bedrogsake ondersoek. Hy het ook misdaadvoorvalle wat by die Brandvlei-gevangenis en tronke in omliggende dorpe plaasgevind het, ondersoek.<\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea met die opening van die polisie se eenheid vir seksuele misdrywe teen vroue en kinders in 2004 in die Wes-Kaap was hy deel van die eerste groep kandidate wat \u2019n kursus in di\u00e9 verband voltooi het. <\/p>\n
Di\u00e9 ervare speurder s\u00ea kort n\u00e1 die kursus het hy en Mercia \u2019n lewenslange tronkstraf-vonnis verseker vir \u2019n stiefpa van Rawsonville wat sy elfjarige stiefdogter oor \u2019n tydperk verkrag het.<\/p>\n
Mercia het as maatskaplike werker slagoffer-ondersteuning aan die meisie gebied. Regter John Hlope het die egpaar destyds vir hul uitstekende werk bedank. <\/p>\n
Burnett s\u00ea een van die hoogtepunte in sy polisieloopbaan was toe hy \u2019n skuldigbevinding en tronkstraf verseker het in die strafbaremanslagsaak waarin die skrumskakel Riaan Loots van die Rawsonville-rugbyklub in \u2019n rugbywedstryd op 23 Junie 2006 teen die Delicious-rugbyklub van Ceres noodlottig beseer is. <\/p>\n
Hy het in 2012 \u2019n nasionale sertifikaat in misdaad-ondersoeke verwerf. <\/p>\n
Burnett se kollegas het Vrydag 27 September \u2019n afskeidspartytjie by Dennebos op die terrein van Brandvlei-gevangenis gehou. <\/p>\n
Oor wat sy toekomsplanne behels, s\u00ea Burnett: \u201cKyk, ek is \u2019n blommemens. \u201cEk kweek graag dahlias; nou wil ek met orgidee-blomme begin.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
