I could see the netflix movie on this now with Sam and his friends living it up in the Bahamas with a bunch of dark skinned overweight shiny faced men in suits doing his every bidding. And I give that characterization because thats how they always portray the "shady" Caribbean, especially the police officers.
Was talking about this with someone last night and we concluded that theyre doing this because this is what they always got off on. An initial statement about a thorough investigation, a slew of "no comment" for 2 to 3 weeks, then a final statement "*we've talked about the enough and Im not going to disciss it anymore we have to move on*". That is literally how they handle every incident of wrong doing. Well... Elizabeth Warren on the case thats all I have to say, mums the word aint gonna cut it this time
This indeed does seem like a deliberate attempt to mislead parliament. They were very vocal about not knowing anything at all, now to find out there was a cabinet paper on it and it was rejected? There are two possibilities, they saw it and they mislead parliament or someone else running the government.
I wonder why commenting enabled on this story. I guess it makes the PLP look bad, that might be the criteria
Im assuning FTX was incorporated. If they werent...OMG how did the SC register them.
But if they were, who were the directors that **never** met? Those directors could be sued. I want to say "should" be sued. This is another thing Bahamians need to be educated about. For years people accepted directorships for clout and name recognition and as a means of easy extra income. Being a director and your responsibility to shareholders' money is a serious responsibility, fail to exercise your obligation to protect shareholder interest and shareholders can come after you personally
Lol, remember Fred Mitchell went to the state department to complain about the NIA spying on the Bahamas? The last we heard about that was the boarding time for flight out.
Im beginning to wonder about our lawyers, the Bahamar case looks like its about to reveal some real doozies about political interference with lawyers mix right up in it and now this. Then there's the police who made a show of "saying" they opened an investigation but een do nothing... well Im sure they did "something" but een question nobody?. Then Brave Davis saying ~*well, we looked at it and nothing looks amiss lets move forward*. It all "looks" like orchestration
Id love to be in the room with the intelligence agents from the US Embassy. the ones who wear the rumple up floral shirts... or maybe too much netflix
I hear a number of persons talking about Bahamians they know who invested in FTX. The SC failed them, there should have been very very strong signalling about who this type of investment was suited for and it's not for someone gambling the retirement money.. and if they had an exchange license why didnt the SC pick up that Bahamians were trading? They opened "Bahamian" bank accounts for the purpose so there's an identifiable trail from Bahamian bank accounts to an FTX bank account. This is not a time to be separated but if Brave Davis doesnt announce restructuring this is going to be bad. Move them to Finance, they need people.
