Daurius Figueira

Daurius Figueira is a criminologist known for his critical analysis of criminal justice policies and law enforcement practices in Trinidad and Tobago. Recently, he gained attention for labeling Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar's endorsement of the US military strike on drug traffickers as akin to that of a 'classic hard-right politician,' indicating concerns over the implications of aligning with US foreign policy. Figueira's expertise in criminology positions him as a voice advocating for a more nuanced and legally grounded approach to crime and security issues in the Caribbean region.
