Remember that it is said that three MP's are under US surveillance. Does anyone know who they are? They are probably on the list. The other thing is that by all indications the "gentleman" of the hour is an equal opportunity don - PNP, JLP, uptown, downtown, white, black, man, woman, young, old, yaadie, foreigner etc. and I wouldn't be surprised by gay and straight. So it could well be a case of out of the frying pan into the fire - unless....
...the "gentleman" plea bargains with names. If I were in his shoes my next destination would be the US Embassy.
...because of guilt and lack of proper preparation and counsel.
Reading this, it seems that Mr. Golding et. al have been trapped by their own guilt and the ineptitude of his advisors. It seems that Manatt et. al would have crafted a way out for everyone; but the JLP, in their guilt and with their ulterior motives, made some fatal tactical blunders:-
Manatt general counsel Monte Lemann II said in a statement to The Am Law Daily on Tuesday that the firm "did not represent Mr. Coke nor were we retained to deal with the Coke matter."
The pact called for the firm to represent the "Government of Jamaica" on "existing political and economic matters, including existing treaty agreements" between Jamaica and the U.S. The filings further showed that between October 13, 2009 (when the agreement went into effect) and February 8 (when it ended), Manatt had five separate contacts with U.S. State Department officials in connection with unspecified "treaty issues." Separately, Golding has acknowledged, two top government officials--including Jamaica's solicitor general--met with a Manatt lawyer in Washington, D.C., while the extradition dispute played out...
..."In our contract signed by Mr. Brady, he acknowledges that he was authorized to contract with Manatt on behalf of the Jamaican government," Lemann said. "We facilitated meetings between representatives of the U.S. and Jamaican governments in their official capacities; and we had formal communications with Jamaican government representatives related to our representation."

Article is BS. The Press want Gelding to stay and is afraid of another man they do not control. Not only that before Bruce made his announcement on Dudus would you if you were in the Party take the Leadership over having to deal with that?
Now is game has changed and when Bruce fall Audley Shaw will slip nicely into the post. Say bye bye NDM hangers on and wannabees.

If he did immediately there would be a ton of articles foreign and local about Jim Brown and Shower Posse.

I think I hear army trucks now and then.
Listen to Bob explain the symbolism of the words "burning and looting".

Orville Taylor and Bert Samuels are at this very moment involved in a radio conversation which seems to telling him to get a good lawyer and turn himself in - complete with tips on how to get off.
Where Orville Taylor know about tips to get off in New York state.
And most probable federal laws?
There is no getting off.
He either go to federal prison or he is dead like his father.
No other way out.<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Leddih</div><div class="ubbcode-body"><div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: SistaCtry</div><div class="ubbcode-body">the people are also calling and passing on messages to him/Dudus, hoping he will hear it, to surrender peacefully to avoid any bloodshed~

This time the authorities better be careful. I would suspect that the govt working with the Police high command and the military are doing their best quietly and behind the scene that no harm come to Dudus Coke like his dad... If they "mess up" it's reasonable to expect that all bets are off and "Uncle" would intervene... I sincerely hope it doesn't come to this and everything works smoothly... Once is an accident, twice is something else alltogether...
