Family of St. Lucia fishing boat captain seeks answers after deadly US strike in Caribbean

  • Relatives of Ricky Joseph, a St. Lucia fishing boat captain, reported he has been missing since a U.S. strike on a suspected drug vessel in the Caribbean on February 13.
  • The family fears Ricky Joseph was killed in the strike, as they have had no contact with him since then amid attacks targeting alleged drug smugglers that have also killed fishermen in the region.
  • Titus Joseph, Ricky's brother, last spoke to him two days before the strike and denied any involvement of Ricky in drug trafficking or criminal activity.
  • A severely damaged boat believed to be connected to the incident washed ashore in St. Lucia, local police have taken custody of the vessel, and the U.S. military stated three narco-terrorists were killed in the strike.
