Based on the statement given to the police, the attack was unprovoked and they did rob them anything (just like the case of the Swedish couple) so in my opinion we're either speaking about hate crime as the police is saying OR maybe not a very popular opinion but there is more to this story that we know about.

This is really sad. Everything in Tobago is more expensive than it was five years ago. I suspect that this is why Tobagonians are becoming more aggressive and involved in crime. I don't believe that this is a hate crime. I strongly believe that these people recognize that the foreigners have money and they want all of it. I applaud the British High Commission for coming on TV to announce that the travel guide will be updated. This will be the best way to apply pressure on this government, who is trying to convince the locals that crime is going down! Hopefully if all the tourists leave and all the High Commissioners come on Television to highlight the crime, then maybe the government may put measures in place to deal with crime more aggressively.

This case was brought up today in Tobago but was dismissed because the victims in this case, the Greens were not present as 'evidence' and the letter provided to the court as a medical excuse for them not coming was unsigned. That last part was strange. The judge dismissed the case and the man who was accused of this crime is still not free because he is serving a four year sentence for home break-ins.
