2017 — The public prosecutor's office in incident based investigations: follow-up inspection.

This follow-up report assesses the implementation of recommendations made in a 2014 study regarding the role of the Public Prosecutor's Office (OM) in incident-based investigations in St. Maarten. The report finds that most recommendations have been partially or fully implemented, though significant gaps remain. Key issues include inadequate feedback loops between the OM and the Police Force (KPSM), lack of structured processes, and insufficient capacity within the police organization. The report emphasizes the need for better registration, improved management, and stronger interagency cooperation to enhance the effectiveness of incident-based investigations.
