American Jason James Grogg and Family Arrested For Trafficking Guns and Ammunition
An American family has been detained by the police on suspicion of trafficking guns and ammunition into Dominica. Jason James Grogg, and two members of his family, who are resident in Mahaut were arrested on Monday, April 17, after police and customs officials stormed his residence.
According to Police Inspector Fixton Henderson, one 9mm Glock pistol and several 9mm and 20mm ammunition were seized from Glogg’s residence. A 40-foot storage container belonging to him and placed in the compound of a church in Mahaut was also searched and four M16 magazines – each containing 30 rounds of ammunition – as well as 17 20-gauge ammunition were also seized.
Henderson said Grogg and two family members were arrested on suspicion of trafficking unlicensed firearms and ammunition into the country. He said investigation is still ongoing into the case. Meanwhile, Grogg has been embroiled in a dispute with a Christian organization named Feed My Sheep (FMS). According to the executives of the organization, the American national volunteered to join the group but was ultimately banished for fraud.
“We, the Board of Directors of Feed My Sheep (FMS), would like to make a public statement regarding a USA visitor, named Jason Grogg,” the organization announced some weeks ago. “Mr. Grogg came to Dominica from the USA and offered his services as a volunteer at our organization, as many visitors have done in the past. However, due to his recent abusive and fraudulent behavior towards our organization and members, we need to let the public know that we have disassociated ourselves from him.”
In his reaction to being ostracized by the organization, Grogg said the FMS was trying to score cheap points but that he would not condescend to a public contention with them.
There is no need for me to slander or malign what they are. Their actions against me speak more clearly than I ever could. Feed My Sheep’s willfulness, stubbornness, and all the real problems come when they (for personal reasons) refuse to extend biblical principles. Instead, they chose to defame me publicly by using “media releases.” That is an act of a coward or in this case, a coward.

Before his arrest and detention, Grogg threatened to launch a website where he will publish videos, chats, and documents evidencing the “sins of FMS” for the world to see. It is not known at this time if he has a legal representative or when he will be arraigned in court.

Anonymous Comment on the Jason Grogg case update.
Mr.Jason Grogg says he found the gun and ammunition in the container. He clams he accidentally packed it there. Mind you he also says he is an expert in “Gun safety”.
Then after it arrives in DA, he accidentally finds it himself. Takes it to his home. Not the police, like a “law abiding good citizen”
When the police raid his home, they find the gun, placed close to his bed. Fully loaded!!!! With extra ammunition also close by, just in case of an accidental need for more ammunition than guns😉👍🏼👍🏼
So Jason goes on to clams he had innocent, pure intentions. He is a missionary. Great reputation in Mahaut, he clams. Of course he accidentally did not tell the people of Mahaut or at the mission about his loaded gun and ammunition. What would they think of him if they knew he was ‘a gun holding crusader”?
When he came to the mission and walk around the village, did he have his gun for protection? That’s okay. Ignore also the fact the mission has kids exposed to this fully loaded “accident”.
So if one day he or one of his family ended up shooting a person with that same gun that he just accidentally shipped into Dominca? What would he say, …..That he illegally kept it because it just happened to be so useful these days😉
What if one of the many young boys who took his wood working clases, found this gun by the bed and accidentally used his gun and killed another person’s child?…. would just call it all a “big accident” that the illegal gun was loaded?.
Let’s pray for wisdom, and wake the … up. This man is a big wolf. After all, he has lived here for over 15 months. Enough time to hide and sell the other “accidentally” inported items.
Hopefully the ‘Fine”/ sentence will be fair on Friday May 5, 2023
We are so nice in Dominca that we also assist him by considering his financial status before we proceed to fine him. . Making sure this Mahaut Gun Swinging Missionary, can afford to pay at least something.
