10 year old child raped in Cat Island Man bound over in superior court for the arson of Cutlass Bay has now been accused of the rape of a 10 year old Bains Town, Cat Island girl. If Bahamian Courts had acted properly, this child would not have been the victim of this horrible crime. Does Julian now have the Dream Team attorneys or now that the Russells are not involved does he even have an attorney? Brave Davis you are responsible.

New report Jennifer of Hawks Nest was forced to leave the island (See 6/21/2001 posting) Bahamian Immigration would not have pulled the work permit for this incident. Pressure had to have been placed on the owner of Hawks Nest by the local officials to fire Jennifer. I would be interested in the point of view by the tourist who made the complaint. This sounds like another incident where low level government official exerting their limited authority on American's living, working and investing in the Bahamas.

Suspected arson of another resort on Cat Island remains unsolved. The recent fire , arson suspected, on Cat Island of a Bahamian Owned resort in North Cat Island remains unsolved. Sandy's note to Sondra, it doesn't matter that no one has been arrested. Nothing happens to them anyway.
U.S. Hotel managers on Cat Island asked the new Administrator to leave the porch of a house they had rented to tourists, after receiving a complaint from the tourists. The Administrator and two visitors from Nassau were said to have been sitting on the porch drinking. The Administrator reportedly responded, "I run this island." Rumors now have it that the managers are being threatened with not having their work permits renewed.
Sandy's notes. Guys good for you! I don't blame you for telling the Administrator to leave. Robby and I would have done the same thing. Maybe we are spoiled Americans, but President Bush could not do that in the U. S. and certainly no low-level government official could get away with it. This was the attitude of most of the Cat Island Administrators during our 10 years on the island.

Cat Island a Hot bed of controversy....Cat Islanders complain about Holland American Cruise line paying employees $40.00 day for a 12 hour shift or $3.33 a hour. The lowest paid employee at Cutlass Bay received $4.00 an hour, plus lunch, plus tips.(8 hr day) A Cat Islander complained in the Nassau Tribune that Robby ran an exclusive club for wealthy white foreigners. (I guess this is a good reason to burn the resort,) The guests of Cutlass Bay tipped the staff very well.
Newly arrived on Cat Island, Royal Bahamas Police Acting Inspector pronounces island clean. Mr. Gaitor arrived on the Island January 3, 2001 and advises The Nassau Tribune on February 10, 2001 that there is no drug activity on Cat Island. Sandy's comment: How does he know? Did the Russell's and Alfred Moss, Jr. tell him so? Note (Allan Russell and Alfred Moss, Jr., prominent Cat Island business men, both convicted drug dealers. , Alfred Moss Jr., not only drug dealer, but an x-Royal Bahamian Policeman) Of course Robby nor I know Inspector Gaitor, he had been on the on the Island only 9 days when Robby left January12, 2001. Robby did say though that the new inspector was at the airport, on the day of his departure, discussing obtaining the pirated satellite service so prevalent on the island. Is the inspector's residence on Cat Island, furnished by the Bahamian Government, now receiving pirated satellite service? A violation of the US- Bahamas Treaty? A Federal offence in the U. S. Of course maybe the inspector did not know this was stealing (Mrs. Crawford would classify this as petty theft) just like he doesn't know there is drug activity on the island * Do we care if the inspector is receiving illegal satellite srvice? N,o, It doesn't effect us., People that live in glass houses should not throw stones You should know your facts before you speak. |

Harry Bethel "Cat Island
is not a drug haven" Sandy Comments Come
on, Harry tell the Tribune what you tell Robby. Tell them that
Julian Robinson told you he knew what he had told the police and that he
was going to tell in court that Ezra Russell hired
him. What made him change his mind? You may not have
had any drugs Harry but you know they are on Cat Island. Tell Sister
Ilene Hello for me when you go to church Sunday. I met Harry on my
first visit to Cat Island. I found him charming. I found him
equally charming the last time I saw him.

| Mrs. Marguerite Russell claimed to the Tribune that business is already slower than usual and wondered whether this website could be part of the cause. :Sandy's Comments No Mrs. Russell, your son, Ezra Russell is the cause. and everyone who does decide to come to Cat Island should know the name Bridge Inn, Russell Service Station, Two Corners Inn, and Beaches Delight. Hopefully they will not patronize the Russell establishments | |||||||

Be Ware When
ex-Prime Minster Pindling proposed the appointment of Irving Knowles as
an Ambassador, vetoed by the British, one Cat Islander made the
following statement. "The Queen wouldn't have him." Sand
Money would not be complete without our story of Irving Knowles.
While watching Robin Williams movie, "Club
Paradise" when the corrupt government official walks up the
steps, my then 73 year old mother in law, says "Irvin
Knowles."
