B--- Please!

"The bribery is related to a widespread scheme involving tens of millions of dollars in bribes to" most Bahamian officals

"Soon" should be a registered trademark for the PLP

Fa real!

If it is not in the PLP's interest to go public on this then it will be swept under the carpet as usual. This AG lost all credibility long time ago.

Not much is in the PLP's best interest these days!!

The only chance we will hear the name is if he or she is not a plp.

It has already been stated that the FNM was the government so it would be a good bet that the slime is FNM. Whoever it is they should go after their money, hit them where it really hurts.

I cannot listen to her. Makes me want to throw up every time she talks. Scum characters = Scum Government.

Does that look like a face you can trust ????

It seems the majority of politicians need to spend some time as a guest of the HMP Fox Hill. It also seems that the Politicians of this country are not honorable nor upstanding but actually the scum of the nation. The damage these nefarious miscreants called politicians have done to The Bahamas is beyond reckoning. Whenever they come of the T.V. i point them out as the true criminals and scourge that no person in their right mind should elevate or aspire to emulate. Pure slime, lower than pond scum!

Comrade Attorney General Allyson, no needs makes we's public waits no damn
stenographer be typing up no report - just release the "alleged" crooked red shirts photo on da milk cartons. Holy shi#, isn't that so and so picture on milk carton?
We all be rushing Super Values, buys we milk. Best you stocks up on da milks, Rupert. Keeping mines as souvenir of justice longs overdue.

Can we expect another Nolle??????????? ................ or Rubisgate???????? or VAGnoncase???

We really need a wiki-leaks Bahamian Patriot right now !

She wont go public with it. She knows She has got the FNM by the balls and she will sit on this dirty little secret and use it to shush them right up until the next general elections, and then blow the top off it.

The only way for this mistake to not get any bigger is for the FNM to admit they f...ed up and start cleaning up the mess now or we got zero chance of turning this little countries nosedive around in 2017

God knows we do need a real patriot

Why has this become about her? The larger concern for Bahamians is the disgusting level of corruption in this country. It is across the board, regardless of political affiliation. I don't care who was in power when it happened, the fact that it happened and continues to happen is what is sickening. What's the big secret anyway? If there is evidence to support the accusations then pursue it just as you would any other case. The political class get away with too much sh#! in the country.

"What's the big secret anyway?" My thoughts exactly! Will releasing the name result in some big change in history? These politicians all related to each other by blood or marriage and they all cover for each other. They've got their own little cliques, that we're not part of, and really aren't interested in our welfare. When they develop one of our 700 islands & cays as a prison island, is when I know they're serious about doing something about crime in the Bahamas; we'll need the space for all of these crooked MPs, politicians etc.

Please go public on all backroom and underhand dealings you and your colleagues are apart of then we would be satisfied.

Send them all to jail starting in the House of Assembly.

Madam Attorney General is at best disingenuous and her response a puerile obfuscation. I am confident that citizens have tuned her out. Thankfully she will demit office soon.

As for the source close to the matter suggesting, “ Prosecutors must consider the legal issues relating to the case such as whether the statute of limitations applies….” is astounding as this would ordinarily have been determined prior to embarking on an investigation, for obvious reasons.

Where is Damian Gomez?

Hiding, watching and waiting. He already put his foot in his mouth too many times. My guess is he is trying to concoct some other BS to bring to the public to try and regain his credibility. But it's too late, the damage has already been done!

No no no people. Alyson Maynard and the PLP think they're slick!

What they're attempting to do is drag this out as long as they can so that they can use this scandal as political leverage during the next general elections! They want it fresh in the minds of the electorate in 2017 hoping that it will give them a political advantage.

Someone please print the NINE names of the BEC board back then and lets figure it out ....... Chairman Mr. J Barry Farrington ............................... and the others????????????

Are we getting hot yet???

Let me know when you figure it out sheeprunner

The identities of those involved are not contained in the court documents, which refer to the Bahamian as ‘Official 8’ and the US citizen who Alstom funnelled the bribes through as ‘Consultant I’.

The only clues to the Bahamian’s identity are assertions that they were a BEC Board member, and that they were appointed to oversee the generator tender process by the-then chairman, Mr Farrington. (the trace international states that it was also a male)

Mr Farrington yesterday said he could not remember who he appointed, but said the details contained in the plea agreement seemed very specific and genuine.

....

Apart from Mr Farrington, they included former FNM deputy leader, Loretta Butler-Turner; Brian Moree QC, senior McKinney, Bancroft & Hughes senior partner; former Bahamas Financial Services Board chief executive, Wendy Warren; ex-CIBC FirstCaribbean managing director, Sharon Brown; and late businessman, Vince D’Aguilar (who resigned over the decision to select Alstom).

All are regarded as incorruptible, outstanding Bahamians. And, in turn, the then-Board unanimously voted to give the contract to Alstom’s rival, Hanjung, a strange act if one of them had been bribed.

The person was not necessarily a BEC Board member, but a friend of someone who held a key position. This person had no knowledge of the power industry, but was involved with the exportation of chemicals and sold used furniture at the time. Hmmm....My bet is that this person was only the mediator in the deal, similar to a certain politician who was accused of overseeing the ambulance driver's blackmail payment in Freeport, during the John Travolta debacle.

Can anyone provide the definition of "soon" please?
