The quarantine breach case and four-month prison sentence of American teen Skylar Mack and boyfriend Vanjae Ramgeet has garnered international media attention, with People magazine, ABC News, Fox News, Good Morning America, and the Associated Press reporting on the story.
Cayman Compass journalist Andrel Harris appeared on US talk show Good Morning America to discuss the case that has captured the attention of the islands and beyond.

Allowing these two young adults to “essentially “ get off with no consequences of measure, not only endangered the lives of the people of Grand Cayman, which has endured hardship among many of it’s residents, but also sets a precedent for these two young egocentric individuals in their future live.
The court would be setting an example that” I can do whatever I want” with no consequences.
A great disservice to all.
There are rules and laws that governs each country . This Covid19 is not a game playing situation. They are trying to keep their country clean , the law is the law. In America look at the numbers , 300 + death , leads the world . Well done Cayman show execute the law.
The big issue that has never been addressed in the Skyar Mack case is how she got approval to come to the Cayman Islands in first place. She is not Caymanian, nor a Permanent Resident, nor a Work Permit Holder, nor does she own property here. She was a tourist, plain and simple. Our border are supposed to be closed to tourists. She should never have been granted approval to come here . I hope that someone is evaluating the decision making process in allowing her to come to the Cayman Islands, and ideally adjusting the review process to ensure people like Skylar Mack are not permitted entry at this time.
