Former FSC head received 'tainted' gift
Published on May 14, 2012
In the TCI, the payment to Cadogan may prompt comparison to a similar situation in Antigua and Barbuda, where the former head of that country’s Financial Services Regulatory Commission, Leroy King, is one of four people accused of taking bribes to divert regulatory attention from the activities of another convicted Ponzi scheme operator, Allen Stanford.

Petitioner appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, New York

Day Pitney LLP, New York (David B. Newman of

...
However, we should protect
against “[t]he use of subpoenas by corporations and plaintiffs

...
Accordingly, the judgment of the Supreme Court, New York

dismissing the petition for pre-action discovery in an action for

Also reported to have attended Monday’s hearing was another former PNP premier, Galmo Williams, and the last chairman of the board of directors of the failed TCI Bank, Norman Hamilton.
Appearing to face various charges of bribery, corruption and money laundering were Michael Misick’s brother Chal Misick, an attorney; former finance minister and deputy premier, Floyd Hall, his wife Lisa and brother Quinton; former environment minister McAlister Hanchell; former minister of works Jeffrey Hall and his former attorney Melbourne Wilson; former education and health minister Lillian Boyce and her brother Earlson; and Boyce’s former husband Samuel Been. Also due to answer charges were Seven Stars resort developer Jak Civre, and Third Turtle developer Richard Padgett, along with former Speaker of the House and now PNP leader, Clayton Greene.
Former premier Michael Misick himself remains a fugitive from justice following the issue of an arrest warrant in the TCI and a corresponding “Red Notice” issued by Interpol.

David Smith mansion damaged by fire
Thursday, Apr 19, 2012
The mansion of convicted fraudster David Smith and his wife Tracey, was extensively damaged by a fire of unknown origin on the morning of Thursday April 19th.
Two fire tenders responded to the well-appointed water-front residence in the upscale development of Chalk Sound, Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands.
It is understood that the Smith’s children were at home at the time of the fire, along with a home helper. Up to the time of writing this report, it could not be ascertained if anyone sustained injuries, but neigbours who went to the house said most of the furniture and fittings were damaged by the fire andy subsequently by water from the fire tenders.
David Smith, a native of Jamaican and who is also a citizen of the Turks and Caicos Islands, is currently serving time in TCI for bilking investors out of more than $200 million. He was also sentenced to 30 years in prison in Orlando federal court, which will continue after his sentence here.
