Lorraine Marteen Hill
It is with deepest sympathy to announce the passing of Lorraine Theresa Marteen Hill.Lorraine was born on Nov. 21, 1946 to the late Eldra Rabsatt and Eugene Marteen Sr., in Harlem, New York. She was married for 60 years to the love of her life, Elroy Hill, who recently passed away on Sept. 20, 2025.
She is survived by her son, Mark, daughter-in-law, Rosanna, step-grandson, Jene Andre Garcia, granddaughter-in-law, Jomyka, and great grandchildren, Markuz and Harper Lily.She is also survived by her brother Eugene Marteen Jr. and brothers-in-law, Valdemar A. Hill Jr., Donald Hill, Lowell Dyer and Wendell Trent along with sisters-in-law Kathleen Hill Dyer, Florence Hill Trent, and Charlene, Jennifer, and Lorraine D. Hill. She is also survived through marriage with many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews. We also recognize her extended Newton family.
Lorraine was always very dedicated to her family and career. Her leadership and caring for her extended family have always been appreciated and recognized. She lived a very active working life that spanned the U.S. Virgin Islands and the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The role that stands out is her role as Office Manager in the Office of the Virgin Islands Delegate to Congress in Washington, DC. Lorraine was an exceptional leader in the Office of the Virgin Islands Delegate to Congress. She reached out to Virgin Islanders across the country, and everyone could depend on her to manage their concerns with diligence, dedication, and care. She was also widely recognized across Congress by other Congressmen and their staff as one who would leverage her capabilities and relationships to organize and make things happen. Often other Congressmen or their staff would reach to her to organize discussions, meetings, and social events.
In addition to her meticulous management and leadership, she was known across the Congress for bringing palm trees and the Caribbean culture to the receptions held by Virgin Islands Delegate to Congress. This environment was appreciated and respected across the board. Under her leadership, receptions were held annually for the Cherry Blossom Princess from the Virgin Islands. Virgin Islanders enthusiastically looked forward to this wonderful reception every year.
In addition, Lorraine, along with her husband and a few other Virgin Islanders, organized the first Virgin Islander Picnic in Wheaton Regional Park, MD for Virgin Islanders who came from across the country to congregate and socialize every summer around July 3rd (VI Emancipation Day). This event has become an annual tradition.
Lorraine will always be remembered for her dedication and care for Elroy, Mark, and the rest of her family. Up to her last day, she was focused on making sure that all the arrangements for her deceased husband were in order. Her loving personality and special caring will always be missed, and she will continue to be in our prayers.
Lorraine will be put to rest on Oct. 10, in Silver Spring, Maryland.

The Virgin Islands Port Authority held its second public hearing on proposed marine tariff hikes before a packed house Tuesday night on St. Thomas, with many voicing disapproval about the increases for everything from barge travel to pilotage fees during the meeting that lasted more than three hours.
The third and final meeting will be held Wednesday night on St. Croix. The first meeting, on St. John Monday night, drew an overflow crowd, and the Port Authority said in a release Wednesday morning that it has added capacity for 500 to be able to attend tonight’s meeting via Zoom.
The proposed price increases would affect British Virgin Islands passenger wharfage and ship dues, docking fees, pilotage, barge ramp fees, cargo overflow staging fees, and parking fees. If approved they would be implemented on Jan. 1, 2026 and will go towards operations of the Port Authority. Fee increases range from $1 for items like ship dues, up to $600 per gross ton for pilotage.
The presentation and current and proposed marine tariffs are available for download at the Port Authority’s website.
Executive Director Carlton Dowe highlighted the responsibilities of the authority at Tuesday’s meeting, noting that funding for its operations — as an autonomous, self-sustaining agency that does not receive government money — mainly comes from tenant rentals and port user fees. Repairs and renovation projects, and the structural integrity of docks and terminals, especially on St. John, remain pressing concerns, with assessments revealing severe deterioration requiring extensive renovations, he said.

Currently, St. John has three marine projects at the Victor William Sewer Marine Facility, Theovald Moorehead Dock and Terminal, and the Loredon Lorence Boynes Sr. Dock, with the latter requiring the most work.
“It’s going to take some significant work with our projects to keep our facilities going for decades to come,” said Jamen Descartes, senior engineering project manager for the Port Authority.
Of the Boynes Sr. Dock, he added, “It’s going to be a challenging project to complete, but we’re going to get it done. … It’s going to take some talented contractors to get it done.”
Of all the facilities, the Boynes Sr. Dock is reportedly in the worst condition. Two dinghy docks need repairs and there is significant under-deck deterioration. Dowe said the marine facilities are ranked on a scale of 2 to 5, with 2 being “serious” and 5 being “satisfactory.”
On St. Thomas, the Austin Babe Monsanto Marine Terminal, Crown Bay Cargo Port, Charles F. Blair Seaplane Terminal, and Edward Wilmoth Blyden IV Marine Terminal received a 4, or “fair,” rank. The Urman Victor Fredericks Marine Terminal received a 5, and on St. Croix, the Theovald Moorehead Dock and Terminal, Svend Aage Ovesen Jr. Seaplane Terminal, and Gordon A. Finch Molasses Pier received a 5. The Gallows Bay Marine Facility, Wilfred “Bomba” Allick Port and Transshipment Center, and Ann E. Abramson Marine Facility received a 3, or “poor,” rank.
Additionally, at the Fredericks Marine Terminal in Red Hook, roof and guttering repairs are needed as well as a redesign of the U.S. Customs facility, as the authority anticipates travelers from the BVI clearing customs on St. Thomas instead of St. John.
“If you come from the BVI, you now have to stop in St. John. Sometimes that can take you two to three hours before you could clear,” said Dowe. “What we will be doing with this project is allowing for folks to come down, directly from the BVI and stop in Red Hook.”
On St. Croix, the “Bomba” Allick Terminal and Abramson Marine facilities will undergo repairs, while the Gallows Bay Marine Facility will be demolished and repurposed, with tenants relocated to the Gordon Finch Marine Terminal, according to Dowe.
Additionally, both gantry cranes on St. Thomas and St. Croix are more than 30 years old and need replacing at $7 million apiece, he said, as parts for the aging equipment are now obsolete. During questioning from the audience, it was also revealed that the cranes are leased to Tropical Shipping, and subleased in turn. Attendees hinted at the need for better oversight of resources being leased.
“The Port Authority choose anybody who wants to use that crane, and does that business, can use it, but for a fee. The Port Authority has no one that operates that crane,” said Dowe.
Additionally, concrete spalling, or deterioration, issues and dredging are among some of the areas that need attention at marine facilities.
While Dowe made the case for the fee increases, attendees remained skeptical.
Kristen Cox, a resident of St. John, highlighted the inconvenient toll booth and barge fees for residents, especially the additional $2 per person upcharge proposed for barge travelers. She acknowledged that when travelling by plane, Port Authority fees are already included in airline ticket prices, but said it is inconvenient for St. John residents who have no choice but to travel home by boat from St. Thomas.
“St. John is the breadbasket of the Virgin Islands,” she said. “We have to either pay a taxi, at $25 a person or more … or in addition to your luggage fees, then you get to the ferry,” she said. “All in all, it’s about $80 for us, as a single person, per person, to get home to St. John.”
Dowe responded that the authority’s fees have not been raised for 19 years, though the barge companies have raised their fees more than twice during that time, he said.
Marjorie Smith, of Smith’s Ferry Services, asked whether the authority could start collecting its own port fees instead of relying on the ferry companies to collect them from their customers.
Dowe reminded her that though port fees have been added and collected by ferry companies, the ferry companies also increased the fees and added an extra $2 to passenger tickets for their own gain.
Later, Junie Hendricks of Road Town Fast Ferry, who opposed the increases, addressed Dowe about his 100-foot boat and the current docking fees.
“So, we paying $100 for the docking fee. Now we going up there with the proposed one, we would be paying $250,” said Hendricks.
He added that he wouldn’t be opposed to an increase with a final fee of $125 or $150, but calmly said that the Port Authority board knows he and others would “put up a fight” over the current proposed increases.
Lorelei Monsanto, a St. John resident, raised the issue of parking spaces contracted to businessman Paul Hoffman at the Cruz Bay parking lot and funding issues, especially surrounding GARVEE bonds, which are typically used for major projects receiving federal funding. Imani Daniel asked about the authority’s financial records and evidence for the fee hikes, while also highlighting citations by the Federal Aviation Administration, which fined the Port Authority in 2023 for improper maintenance of the runway at Cyril E. King Airport on St. Thomas. One attendee grew passionate when addressing the proposed increases, saying to Dowe, “God ain’t finished with all you yet,” and added that the Port Authority should team up with the Department of Planning and Natural Resources to collect fees from boaters occupying local waters.
While many voiced dissatisfaction with the proposed fee hikes, some were more positive.
“Mr. Dowe, good ideas, in the end, you going have to raise fees,” said Collister Fahie. He added, “I don’t think that we got a real money problem, I think we got a management problem.”
Attendees also asked whether the Port Authority board has made its final vote on the matter. Dowe said it has not been finalized.
Throughout the hearing, many concerns were raised and a plethora of questions were asked by the audience. Dowe and his staff addressed all, however, due to the overwhelming number of questions and the intricacy of some, Dowe encouraged some attendees to reach out to Monifa Marrero-Brathwaite, public information officer, with their remaining concerns. She can be reached at 340-774-1629. The meeting ended after 9 p.m.
The St. Croix meeting is scheduled for Wednesday (tonight) at 6 p.m. at the Henry E. Rohlsen Airport Terminal VIPA Conference Room on the second floor. Residents may also attend via Zoom by registering at www.viport.com/events (meeting capacity has been expanded to 500 participants).

Jury selection for the Feb. 24, 2023, murder trial of Richardson Dangleben Jr. was supposed to begin Oct. 20 in Superior Court. The victim in the case was 68-year-old Keith A. Jennings. (Source file photo)
The suspect in two separate killings in 2023 will not face trial on either one until at least 2026; this prospect became clear after a Wednesday hearing in Superior Court at what was supposed to be final pretrial motions in the case of Richardson Dangleben Jr.
Jury selection in the Jennings case was scheduled to start Oct. 20, but on Wednesday Superior Court Judge Denise Francois said proceedings would be delayed until next year. The hearing was held to consider pretrial motions, including a request for a change of venue to St. Croix.
Motions filed by defense attorney Carl R. Williams also included a request to drop four illegal weapons counts appearing on the charging documents filed by the Justice Department.
Dangleben appeared at Wednesday’s hearing by way of livestream video from the Bureau of Corrections facility on St. Thomas.
Francois told Williams and Assistant Attorney General Jeremy Weddle that changing the venue might cause logistic problems and could lead to a change of judges as well. There would also be considerations for proceedings taking place in federal court involving Danglben around the same time, she said.
Pretrial hearings in the Phipps case, playing out in District Court, have seen lawyers for the U.S. Justice Department demand that Dangleben face the death penalty. Federal Public Defender Matthew Campbell successfully argued against it; federal prosecutors have, in recent days, turned to the Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit for reinstatement.
Those considerations led the judge in the Jennings case to pause the proceedings; Francois said she would lay out the merits in a written opinion to be issued soon. “Given the parallel proceedings in District Court, I am going to reschedule jury selection and trial in this case to sometime next year,” Francois said.

Parole Board and four incarcerated men who applied for early release under a recently-enacted law. (Source photo by Kit MacAvoy)
A V.I. Superior Court judge amended a temporary restraining order against the territory’s parole board Wednesday and allowed them to resume hearing applications — except for those filed under a recent law allowing for parole on a geriatric or medical basis.
Bryan’s challenge came after Warren Ballantine, Beaumont Gereau and Meral Smith — who were each sentenced to eight consecutive life sentences more than 50 years ago for their part in the Fountain Valley killings — and one other man, Tydel John, applied for parole under the newly-minted law. Sen. Franklin Johnson, who sponsored the measure, told the Source in June that applicants’ notoriety almost certainly played a role in the governor’s challenge.
“What I really believe happened — it’s the folks that then applied for it, who happened to be the Fountain Valley Five,” he said. “Because when I did that bill, the governor said to me, he said, ‘Senator, this is a very good bill,’ and he signed it into law. The governor never challenged it.”
In July, Bryan nominated Roy Moorehead Jr. to fill one of the board’s vacancies, and the parties no longer dispute whether the board has enough voting members to take action. On Wednesday, however, Andrews said the question of whether the board had been operating without a quorum for several years had yet to be answered.
During a hearing in June, Assistant Attorney General Christopher Timmons — representing Bryan — called V.I. Corrections Bureau Executive Assistant Curlita LeBlanc to the stand. LeBlanc told the court that the board has only had three voting members since the resignation of Cherrisse Woods in December 2022. V.I. Attorney General Gordon Rhea also sits on the board as a nonvoting member.
The board’s attorney, Pedro Williams, repeated arguments Wednesday that the presence of a nonvoting member counted toward establishing a quorum and that, per a nearly 30-year-old set of bylaws the board adopted in 1997, only three members are needed to approve parole matters. Timmons challenged the validity of those bylaws, which were not sent to the Legislature for approval. Andrews later said he was “at a loss to identify” what authority the board had to promulgate rules and regulations without oversight.
Williams also argued that the vacancies only occurred because Bryan failed to nominate new members. Andrews questioned whether Bryan was even aware of the shortfall.
“He should know,” Williams said. “He ought to know.”
Later, Andrews heard arguments over the constitutionality of applying the geriatric and medical release law retroactively.
The Justice Department has argued that statutes “are presumed to be applied prospectively, and not retroactively” and that applying the geriatric parole statute here “would impair the sentencing right of the judge who sentenced them; it would impair the rights of the prosecutors who determined which charges to bring and which penalties to seek; and it would impair the rights of the general public who prior enactment of the geriatric parole law could rest assured that these violent and notorious criminals never walk the streets again.”
V.I. Office of Cannabis Regulation Executive Director Joanne Moorehead discusses upcoming compliance and licensing updates during Wednesday’s Cannabis Advisory Board meeting. (Screenshot from Zoom meeting)
The V.I. Office of Cannabis Regulation is gearing up to host its first Cannabis Compliance Education Summit next month, designed to help future licensees navigate the complexities of operating within a regulated cannabis industry.
During Wednesday’s Cannabis Advisory Board meeting, OCR Executive Director Joanne Moorehead emphasized the importance of compliance and education for the territory’s emerging cannabis businesses.
“Unlike some of the other industries here in the territory, regulated cannabis is very compliance-heavy,” said Moorehead. “There are a lot of requirements, a lot of rules and regulations that are integral to maintaining a sound and working regulated cannabis space.”
Recognizing the challenges that new licensees may face, the OCR will host two daylong, in-person summits on St. Thomas on Nov. 3 and on St. Croix on Nov. 4. The events will bring together cannabis professionals with experience from other regulated markets across the United States.
“It’s not just OCR providing information,” Moorehead explained. “We’ve invited cannabis professionals to talk about best operational practices for maintaining and sustaining compliant businesses. It benefits no one if we issue licenses to people who can’t stay compliant or sustain operations.”
Moorehead encouraged all prospective applicants and license holders to attend “armed with questions” and take advantage of the opportunity to engage directly with experts.
In addition to the summit announcement, Moorehead provided an update on the status of cultivation and micro-cultivation license applications.
“We are actively working on those, and I am hoping that next week — the week of October 14 to 17 — we can contact the majority of cultivation applicants with responses on whether they are being awarded provisional licenses or micro-cultivation permits,” she said.
She clarified that successful applicants will first receive provisional licenses, allowing them to move into the next phase of operational preparation, such as build out, obtaining business licenses, and completing safety and environmental inspections before being granted a certificate to operate.
“There is still a process,” Moorehead noted. “We’re making sure that what’s built matches what was proposed and that all the appropriate agency documentation and inspections are in place before any business opens its doors,” she said.
Moorehead also reminded the public that the deadline for Cannabis Dispensary License Applications has been extended to Oct. 15. Once applicants complete and submit part one, they will receive an application number or Unique ID on the confirmation screen, which must be used to complete and submit part two in the same manner.
Applicants are reminded that applications will not be considered complete without payment. The $10,000 application fee must be paid on or before the Oct. 15 deadline at 3 p.m. Payments can be made in person at the OCR/DLCA offices on St. Croix or St. Thomas, where cashier hours are 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. The deadline to submit Part 2 of the application is Dec. 19.
Responding to Chair Dr. Catherine Kean’s question regarding the function of the Research and Development Cannabis License, which allows licensees to focus on genetics and plant innovation, Moorehead explained, “It’s intended for those heavy on genetics and clones. It provides an opportunity to grow a larger number of plants, sell clones and seeds, and develop new genetics. For example, humidity-resistant strains would be particularly valuable here in the Virgin Islands.”
She added that the OCR looks forward to seeing “innovative and creative minds” contribute to the local cannabis industry through research and genetic development.
Other office updates included the hiring of compliance auditors and the commencement of training for enforcement officers.
Although the board was unable to vote on the acceptance of last month’s minutes due to a lack of quorum, Kean noted that most board members serve as commissioners for other departments, and meetings are organized around their availability.
The Cannabis Advisory Board tentatively scheduled its next meeting for Nov. 5 at 2 p.m.
With compliance training, license decisions, and R&D opportunities advancing, Moorehead said she is optimistic about the territory’s progress.
“We’re setting our industry up for success,” she concluded. “This is an exciting step forward.”
A 55-year-old former employee of Gallows Bay Hardware on St. Croix was arrested Tuesday for her alleged role in an embezzlement scheme involving company gift cards, the V.I. Police Department reported.
The Economic Crimes Unit launched an investigation Aug. 20 after the business owner filed a complaint alleging embezzlement by an employee, the department said in a news release. Investigators determined that the employee, Alicia Caleb, allegedly obtained gift card information from an accomplice who used his managerial authority to manipulate the company’s gift card roster. The pair then used the cards for personal gain, according to the police report.
Surveillance footage reportedly showed Caleb fraudulently pretending to cash out customers and diverting funds for herself and her accomplice, the police report stated.
Detectives served Caleb with an arrest warrant at her residence on Oct. 7 and took her into custody without incident. She was charged with embezzlement by employee, obtaining money by false pretense, grand larceny, access to a computer for fraudulent purposes, and conspiracy, the report stated
Her accomplice remains at large. Bail was set at $35,000, and Caleb was remanded to the John A. Bell Adult Correctional Facility after she was unable to post bond. She is scheduled to appear for an advice of rights hearing in the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands, police said.
Students at Eulalie Rivera K-8 will be screened for diabetes under a new program launching Oct. 17. (Submitted photo)
On Oct. 17, a new program will be launched at Eulalie Rivera K-8 School to treat and prevent childhood diabetes. The program will be run by the V.I. Diabetes Center of Excellence, the V.I. Education Department and the Bennie and Martha Benjamin Foundation.
The initiative will identify, educate and empower children who may be at risk for diabetes. Initially, students in the fourth and fifth grades at Rivera School and those who are overweight or have a family history of diabetes will be screened.
According to Sash Ogarro with the V.I. Diabetes Center of Excellence, more than 100 children at the school have already been identified as possibly having symptoms.
Frequent urination, excessive thirst, dark patches on the skin and being frequently tired are the symptoms according to Ogarro. She said there is no specific age group with more cases – diabetes treats children equally.
The Diabetes Center’s staff comprises physicians, nurse practitioners, dietitians, endocrinologists, and ophthalmologists who provide individual care for patients as well as self-management classes and referrals to specialists. The center also conducts research.
VIDCOE’s holistic approach to diabetes includes regular doctor visits, diet, exercise, education, and focused exams. Annual checkups for people with diabetes should include vision, teeth, feet and a physical exam. Those with diabetes should check blood and glucose levels daily.
The children who test positive for diabetes will be enrolled in interactive education sessions that focus on healthy eating habits, increased physical activity and making positive lifestyle choices. For more information, visit www.vidcoe.org.
Ogarro said the center’s plan is to expand the program to other schools, eventually.
