It appears that the recent celebration, among government officials implicated in the billion dollar fraud, money laundering and corruption investigation of Saint Lucia's Citizenship by Investment (CIP) passport sales program, after Philippe Martinez dismissed his RICO case, will be short-lived. According to our most reliable source on the investigation, assigned to a major American law enforcement agency, one of the principal government officials in that East Caribbean state has agreed to become a Cooperating Individual (CI) and testify against his associates We understand that he will receive Immunity from Prosecution, meaning that he will not be charged with any of the crimes he committed, regarding his role in the CIP program.
We do not have his identity, and even if we did, to disclose it would put his life in serious danger, as contract murders are known to happen in Saint Lucia, which is presently suffering a major crime wave, with a large increase in homicides, few of which seem to be solved by the authorities. He is slated to testify against others presently sitting in positions in government, after which he will reportedly be placed in America's WitSec, or Witness Protection, program, with a new identity, somewhere in the United States.
We can only venture an educated guess as to his identity, and that would not serve justice, so we will let the matter play out and wait for an indictment. Inasmuch as Federal criminal investigations often take a substantial period of time to conclude, there is no time frame for that to occur, but we will be watching; stay tuned.
