In reply to Ewart
I read about the JAG Smith one who i was told is the only one of the crooks to face jail time but i remember the one with PJ and Shell, the one with my MP Blythe, several with Paulwell and the PNP and Trafigura.
They need to send these crooks to jail.
In reply to Chrissy
I hope Crawford wins that seat. There is something about that guy Vaz...uneasy is the word.
In reply to nitro
They told you wrong. Simmonds went to jail at the Richmond Prison Farm. I believe Malcolm and "Puss" Lewis also served time. Issues around selling farm work tickets and selling state secrets.
Which reminds me ... there was also Sir Harold Allen, wasn't there?

In reply to Ewart
Oh, so why they stopped sending the crooks to prison?
In reply to Ewart
The only reason for this urgency is that bye election in less than two weeks
In reply to Chrissy
Exactly.

Corruption in Jamaica.
In other news - water is wet.
In reply to Chrissy
A marathon meeting of the Jamaica College board, which finished late last night, ended in a stalemate as executives were warned that they did not have the authority to fire Ruel Reid as principal even as some senior members want to set the government discard loose, The Gleaner understands.
The board will request that the Ministry of Education, which now falls under Prime Minister Andrew Holness, have Reid fired as soon as possible, a source told The Gleaner last night.
Reid should forget about returning as principal of Jamaica College until and unless he is cleared of corruption allegations, prominent old boy and benefactor Gary Butch Hendrickson has told The Gleaner.
The philanthropist, a member of the Jamaica College Foundation and chairman and CEO of Continental Baking Company Ltd, said last night that Reid, who was forced to resign as minister yesterday over corruption allegations, should await completion of investigations before considering a return as principal.

And we both know 'good speaking' didn't hire the St Ann man without orders from above
In reply to ChrissyExactly just like in the Mafia or C.IA, the boss gives the orders you follow, but if you get caught, the boss will fixed it. just like petrojam only this time rookie will be thrown under the bus to settle things in the eyes of the sheeple, only thing is la cosa nostra has gotten out of hand, and the small dons has decided to take a bigger slice of the pie, what they didn't know was that eyes were watching and things are slowly unravelling. stay tuned for the next episode of......
I notice Holness is more sensitive and responsive to corruption accusations than previous JLP admins.

In reply to camos
HUH? Petrojam????
In reply to camos
Those men who sold farm work tickets and state secrets in the 40s and 50s were jailed promptly by Busta.
But people had it to say it was because they did not share to loot with him!
