I was just thinking the same as I recall they couldnt stop Nygard from absconding with his assets, also in violation of a court order, because "*a gate was locked*". If he is hiding under the bench in the court who would reasonably expect the police to look for him there?
It was more than "looks", looks if you have them are an asset, but they aren't required for success, Abraham Lincoln was a very unattractive man.
Bain was squatting in a house out Cable Beach, he was on the side of the road with 5 gallon bottles collecting money... for what? I can't think that he collected any vast amount and then the firing of the shotgun off carnichael road... all of those things "together" (because hard times can come to anyone as Dorian and COVID taught us)
Remember the party leader who claimed he had millions in funding *ready to go* as well as the cure for COVID, he drank some unknown substance at a political debate as proof.
Lots of Bahamians follow "*nothing*". If you mention a load of money, if you're white in some constituencies, if you're attractive and your makeup always looks great, if you have a great voice... you have a nice suit, people will follow you. And in politics all of those things have important they add to your ability to influence. The problem in this country is, for a vast number of our political candidates thsts where it ends, if you turn the tv off you'll hear the sound of the one marble rolling aimlessly around in their head.
At one point I feared for Mr Bain, he was acting unhinged, manic like Michael the archangel.
He's claiming that he got the documents "after" the court decision came down. So the dog would be wagging the tail I think... It's interesting. My first question is, is the information materially different from what was presented in the trial. Next question if it is materially different did the govt violate the document disclosure requirement, it wouldnt have been difficult to find these communications. But every hinges on whether this is really new information
Is that Kirk Cornish? They really need to change the rules about MPs charged with serious offences. Pay them their salary and send them on leave until the matter is resolved.
The first rule of cloak and dagger is to give a little boy from the ghetto a few pennies to carry a message on a crumpled piece of paper to the hero. Or a burner phone that self explodes.
"*Shortly after the publication of his Lordship’s [Sir Ian Winder] judgment, I received an anonymous call to go to a local coffee shop and that I would find a brown envelope for me to collect*"
This lil country gat more cloak and dagger than The Bourne Ultimatum. From Columbus to Amistaad to Blackbeard to Wallace Groves, Harry Oakes and Myer Lansky, Joe Ledher, Commision of Inquiry Island for Sale, Ninety Knowles, Bahamar...oh the Korean Boat Scandal.. i miss anything? Oban
"**Justice Carla Card-Stubbs also found that Mr Turnquest had “breached his statutory fiduciary duty, and the statutory duty of care, diligence and skill” owed to Mr Kaiser and his Alpha Aviation investment vehicle by releasing Mr Butler and his wife from their obligation to repay the mortgage even though a debt was still owing and no alternative security/collateral was provided.**"
"**the actions do not reflect conduct of a director**"
He is lucky. Fiduciary duty is not a flimsy responsibility, this could have easily been a very serious fine. I exclude "should have"
33 grams isnt recreational. Th he problem The Bahamas has from the top down everybody believes outsmarting the law is the way to get ahead. When/if marijuana legislation passes they're going to have a 7 headed monster on their hands, because no matter the messaging that comes after, the loose discussions that have been deliberately allowed (I recall the glee of officials at the town hall when they said people overwhelmingly wanted legalization) this will descend into chaos with everybody believing they can do as they like.
Just take a look at turn left on red. People now run red lights in every direction with impunity because the original discussion was extremely loose.
