SEVEN MILE BEACH WATERFRONT WALKERS ROAD TOWN CENTRE PLAZA health chief reveals new criminal probe into carePay Withholds information on IT contract brent Fuller bfuller@pinnaclemedialtd.com The Cayman Islands Health Services Authority is bracing for another criminal in- vestigation following the conviction of former board chairman Canover Watson on five cor- ruption-related charges connected to the CarePay patient swipe-card contract fraud. This ongoing investigation, HSA Chief Executive Officer Lizzette Yearwood said, pre- vents the authority from disclosing details of any contract or contracts former health services information technology chief Dale Sanders maintained with the Cayman Islands government. The Cayman Compass has re- quested copies of all government contracts previously or currently held by Mr. Sanders since Jan. 1, 2011. “I ... must deny release of these documents based on the fact that another criminal suit is expected to follow closure of the previous one,” Ms. Yearwood said in a Feb. 11 letter to the Compass. Section 16 of the Cayman Islands Anti-Corruption Law prevents disclo- sure of a record if it could affect the conduct of a prosecution or a criminal trial. Questions sent to the Anti-Corruption Commission last week regarding the ongoing criminal investigation into CarePay-related matters received no response. However, the Compass was aware that investigators with the Royal Cayman Islands Police Anti-Corruption Unit continued to review computer files pro- vided to officers in January by employees at Maitland, which acquired Watson’s firm Admiral Administration, in November 2012. Those computer “flash drive” files – taken from detachable USB memory cards left in Watson’s office following his August 2014 ar- rest – have revealed a number of details re- garding the CarePay scheme including Watson’s plans to route profits from the fraud to a shell company owned by him and business partner Jeffrey Webb, known as The W Group. The flash drives also contain details of a number of other business ventures the two Wb man arrested in jogger attacks brent Fuller bfuller@pinnaclemedialtd.com A West Bay man was arrested Thursday on suspicion of indecent assault in connection with sexual attacks on three female joggers in George Town over the past two weeks. The Royal Cayman Islands Police Service did not immediately state whether the 27-year- old man was suspected in any of the six other indecent assaults that have been reported in West Bay since May 2015. The man, who was being detained at cuban influx taking its toll JaMes whittaker jwhittaker@pinnaclemedialtd.com Nearly $1 million has been spent since July handling an ever-increasing number of Cuban migrants who land in the Cayman Islands. The influx, which has led to community cen- ters being used as overflow detention centres, is showing no signs of slowing. Officials said Thursday that another makeshift boat carrying 17 migrants had been observed “waiting out bad weather” in the islands’ territorial waters. Suspected DUI crash knocks out power A predawn car crash Saturday was blamed for knocking out power to a large area of West Bay for several hours. The driver involved was arrested by po- lice on suspicion of drunken driving, ac- cording to Royal Cayman Islands Police Chief Inspector Brad Ebanks. The smash, which happened just after 3 a.m. on North West Point Road, caused a section of a power pole and live electric lines to come down on top of the Nissan Skyline involved. Witnesses said the driver managed to escape with relatively minor injuries. He was taken to hospital complaining of neck pains. Police said the Nissan was the only vehicle involved in the accident.

McLaughlin-Martinez, 38, is accused of stealing items and cash and using force or threat of force in order to do so. Items stolen included jewelry, cellphones and an electronic tablet, all with a total value of CI$3,000. The cash totaled US$4,900. The defendant also de- nied causing grievous bodily harm to a man during the incident. Defense attorney Nicholas Dixey said the trial would involve two civilian wit- nesses and would take about four days. Justice Robin McMillan set the trial for Monday, May 30. At a plea and directions hearing on April 15, the de- fense is to indicate whether the trial is to be by jury or judge alone. The defendant was remanded in custody until then. Fire Service installs free smoke detectors The Fire Service recently installed free smoke detec- tors in a number of homes on Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac as part of its fire prevention and safety awareness drive. Fire Services officers also replaced dead bat- teries in the homes of five elderly people across the Cayman Islands, including the George Town home of 103-year-old Lillian Pearson. Brevon Elliott, acting se- nior divisional officer in the Fire Prevention Unit, said it is essential for all homes to have smoke detectors that are in good working condition. It’s the law, he said, but it could also mean the difference between life and death. “Remember, smoke detec- tors are the first line of de- fense should a fire start in your home,” Mr. Elliott said in a press release. “They should not be tampered with, but remain at all times in good working order.” People often forget to re- place dead batteries or dis- able smoke detectors when they cook and forget to turn them back on, the Fire Service noted. Smoke detectors can be installed 10 feet from kitchens to prevent them going off unnecessarily, but they will still go off when a fire occurs in the kitchen. The Fire Service advises the public to install smoke detectors inside and outside each bedroom and sleeping area of a home, and to in- stall a smoke detector on every level of a home. Smoke detectors should be replaced every 10 years and tested at least once a month, which is easily done by pressing the test button on the device. Mr. Elliott said the fire service will continue to promote fire prevention throughout the year. “As we know all too well, a little prevention goes a long way.” Crown aCCepts plea in BraC road death Sentencing set for April 5 CaRol WinkeR cwinker@pinnaclemedialtd.com Defense attorney Nicholas Dixey advised Justice Robin McMillan in Grand Court on Friday that the Crown had ac- cepted the plea offered by his client, Jefferson Jeupe Laureano, to a charge of causing death by careless driving. Laureano, 22, had been charged with driving dan- gerously on Dennis Foster Road in Stake Bay, Cayman Brac, and causing the death of Raoul Muhammed Scott on Jan. 9, 2015. He entered his plea to the lesser charge on Jan. 29 this year. No details were dis- cussed at this stage, but Mr. Dixey asked for a pre- sentence social inquiry re- port for Laureano, who is a resident of West End. Justice McMillan set the sentencing hearing for 2:15 p.m. April 5. Information released by police after the incident in- dicated that the two men were traveling in sepa- rate vehicles in the same direction when a colli- sion occurred. A senior officer said it was suspected that the two vehicles had been racing each other.

Haiti lawmakers elect provisional president PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) – Haitian lawmakers on Sunday chose the coun- try’s Senate chief to lead a caretaker government that will fill the void left by last week’s departure of former President Michel Martelly and perhaps ease lingering tensions that recently pushed the deeply polarized nation into political crisis. In the early hours of Sunday, Jocelerme Privert was elected as provisional president and sworn in after a lengthy session by Haiti’s bicameral legislature. He was one of three candidates vying to lead an interim govern- ment that was only supposed to last 120 days. His new position will be that of a power broker who hopefully carries enough weight to smooth political divisions that have left Haiti without an elected president or a completed Parliament. Prime Minister Evans Paul remains in office for now, but Privert and lawmakers are expected to confirm a No. 2 official in coming days. During a speech to law- makers hours before the final vote, Privert vowed to lead a caretaker administration that would “foster confidence within all sectors of society,” ensure stability and see that suspended elections are held “as soon as possible.” He became president after 3 a.m. EDT (0800 GMT) fol- lowing a second round of voting that put him over the top with 13 votes from sena- tors and 64 votes from lower house deputies. There was a lengthy period of closed-door negotiations after an initial round gave Privert just two votes more than candidate Edgard Leblanc, a former Senate president who was being backed by Martelly’s political faction. Martelly, who was barred by Haiti’s constitution from seeking a consecutive term as president, departed office a week ago without a new elected leader in place. A runoff presidential election was de- layed for a second time last month amid violent opposition protests and deep public sus- picions about vote rigging in favor of his chosen successor. Less than 24 hours be- fore Martelly was set to step down, top Haitian leaders cobbled together plans for a short-term provisional gov- ernment and a roadmap to hold the postponed presiden- tial and legislative runoff. As Senate chief, Privert was a central figure in those talks. trial under way in $100 million lawsuit against Venezuela COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – A federal trial over a $100 million investors’ law- suit against Venezuela in- cludes allegations of fraud, hints of an international criminal conspiracy, and references to diamonds, German junk bonds and a mysterious house fire in Switzerland. At issue in the 2004 complaint are three-de- cade old promissory notes issued by a now-defunct government-sponsored Venezuelan bank. Venezuela has con- firmed the debts belonging to an agricultural devel- opment bank known as Bandagro are the govern- ment’s obligations and must be paid, argue at- torneys for Skye Ventures in Columbus, where the 2004 purchase of the notes happened. “This case is straight- forward: It’s about a bank’s refusal to honor a debt,” Charles Cooper, a Columbus attorney rep- resenting Skye Ventures, wrote in a Jan. 27 court document summarizing in- vestors’ arguments. Lawyers for Venezuela say the notes are fakes with forged signatures and were never guaranteed by the government.The islands’ most-trusted news source 3 Cayman Compass • Monday February 15, 2016 The islands’ most-trusted news source 4 – EDITORIAL – Opinion&Letters The Cayman Compass welcomes comments, opinions and viewpoints from readers. Letters to the editor can be emailed to editor@pinnaclemedialtd.com, submitted via www.caymancompass.com, sent by post or hand-delivered to the Compass office. “[Tara Rivers] therefore prays that … on the hearing of this petition, the said John Gordon Hewitt may be adjudged bankrupt.” … Politics ain’t beanbag. That axiom seemed to resonate with Mr. Hewitt and wife Velma Powery-Hewitt upon their learning of the Grand Court filing we just quoted from, which Ms. Rivers submitted after being unable to collect on a US$140,000 debt owed by Mr. Hewitt for legal costs she accrued during her successful defense against Mr. Hewitt’s 2013 challenge to her eligibility to hold elected office in the Cayman Islands. “I don’t know what I will do,” Mr. Hewitt said. “I don’t know what will happen now.” “I am just praying. I don’t know what else to do,” echoed Mrs. Powery-Hewitt, who ran under the United Democratic Party banner in the 2013 election, fin- ishing fifth in the four-member West Bay, the district Ms. Rivers now represents in the Legislative Assembly. Following the election, Mr. Hewitt filed a legal chal- lenge, questioning Ms. Rivers’s fulfillment of constitu- tional criteria regarding residency, and citing the fact that Ms. Rivers possessed a U.S. passport. Those were, in our opinion, not only very good ques- tions about Ms. Rivers’s particular situation, but also very important questions about our fledging 2009 Con- stitution that deserved to have been settled by a judge for the edification of future potential candidates. In a ruling that was, in a word, remarkable (remark- able in the sense that it is still being remarked about), Chief Justice Anthony Smellie determined that Ms. Rivers was indeed eligible to hold elected office, deter- mining that her work at a London law firm was equiv- alent to studying at an “educational institution” (a constitutional exception to residency requirements) and that her possession of a U.S. passport, which she obtained by virtue of being born in the U.S., did not indicate she was acting “under an obligation or obedi- ence to a foreign power.” Mr. Hewitt attempted to appeal Justice Smellie’s decision, but his petition was denied by the Court of Appeal, whose reasoning was far more straightforward, at least to non-lawyerly laypersons like us. President Sir John Chadwick said, “The Constitu- tion says the Grand Court decision is final, that it is a ‘no-go’ area for us.” (He was referencing Section 66 of the Constitution, which says questions about the validity of anyone’s election to the assembly, “shall be determined by the Grand Court, whose decision shall be final and not subject to any appeal.”). Unlike Mr. Hewitt and his attorneys, we do not here dispute the validity of Justice Smellie’s judgment. We are merely asserting our opinion that Mr. Hewitt’s chal- lenge to Ms. Rivers’s eligibility was serious, and cer- tainly not frivolous. (Contrast Mr. Hewitt’s case with the inane challenge by four West Bay residents to the closure of West Bay Road. There, the first part of the case was funded through Legal Aid, and ultimately the Court of Appeal shielded the four women from paying for the costs of their opponents’ successful defense.) We also can’t help but take notice of the potential irony engendered by Ms. Rivers’s recent request of the court: If Mr. Hewitt is to be adjudged bankrupt, then it is he who shall lose his ability to hold elected office in Cayman. … And all because he sought an interpre- tation of an important constitutional statute that, for the vast majority of Cayman’s population, was most unclear prior to the chief justice’s ruling. After the judgment was handed down, Premier Alden McLaughlin (who is an attorney) said, “The law on this has been all over the place. “I think, for the first time, we have real clarity on the provision about passports, the issue of what quali- fies as an ‘educational establishment’ for the purposes of the constitutional provision as well as residency.” In his decision to hold Mr. Hewitt liable for Ms. Rivers’s legal costs, Chief Justice Smellie cited Ms. Rivers’s claim that “it would be neither fair nor appro- priate that she should be required to bear them herself.” As they say, fair is fair. But in this instance, is it “politically correct” or politically wise for Ms. Rivers to move forward with this debilitating action? Rivers versus the Hewitts: At what cost? Monday February 15, 2016 • Cayman COmpass The progressives’ itch to regulate speech WASHINGTON – Bernie Sanders, greedy for power to punish people he con- siders greedy, has occasioned 2016’s best joke (reported in Bloomberg Businessweek): “In the Bernie Sanders drinking game, every time he mentions a free govern- ment program, you drink someone else’s beer.” But nei- ther Sanders’s nor Hillary Clinton’s hostility to the First Amendment is amusing. Both have voted to do something never done be- fore – make the Bill of Rights less protective. They favor amending the First Amendment to permit govern- ment regulation of political campaign speech. Hence they embrace progressivism’s logic: There is no reason the reg- ulatory, redistributive state should distinguish between various markets. So, govern- ment that is competent and duty-bound to regulate mar- kets for goods and services to promote social justice is com- petent and duty-bound to regulate the marketplace of ideas for the same purpose. Sanders and Clinton de- test the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United decision, which they say their court nominees will promise to re- verse. It held that unions and corporations – especially in- corporated advocacy groups, from the National Rifle Association to the Sierra Club – can engage in unregulated spending on political advo- cacy that is not coordinated with candidates or campaigns. The decision simply recog- nized that Americans do not forfeit their First Amendment rights when they come to- gether in incorporated enti- ties to magnify their voices by speaking collectively. Opposition to Citizens United is frequently distilled into the slogan that “corpora- tions are not people,” to which U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren adds this example of pro- gressive insight: “People have hearts. They have kids. They get jobs. They get sick. They cry. They dance. They live. They love. And they die.” And a few teach at Harvard Law School, as Warren was able to do only because Harvard did not die: It is descended from the first corporation chartered in colonial America. Surely she learned in law school something she can relearn by reading “Are Corporations People?” in National Affairs quar- terly by Carson Holloway of the University of Nebraska, Omaha. The concept of cor- porate personhood, he says, is not an invention of today’s conservatives. It derives from English common law and is “deeply rooted in our legal and constitutional tradition.” William Blackstone, the English jurist who richly in- fluenced America’s Founders, said corporations are “artifi- cial persons” created to en- courage socially useful co- operation among individuals and are accorded certain rights so that they can hold property and have lives, iden- tities and missions that span multiple generations. Early in America’s history, many for- profit corporations were no less important than the non- profit educational and reli- gious corporations that still produce America’s robust civil society of freely cooper- ating citizens. If corporations had no rights of personhood, they would have no constitu- tional protections against, for example, the arbitrary search and seizure by gov- ernment of their property without just compensation. And there would be no prin- cipled reason for denying the right of free speech (the First Amendment does not use the word “person” in guaranteeing it) to for-profit (e.g., The New York Times) or nonprofit (e.g., the NAACP) corporations. In his attack on the Bill of Rights, Sanders voted to ex- empt for-profit media corpo- rations from government reg- ulation of corporate speech. Why? Because such corpora- tions, alone among for-profit and nonprofit corporations, are uniquely altruistic and disinterested? Please. In 2007, in a Cato Institute lecture, Judge Janice Rogers Brown of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit warned us: People who are eager to weaken protection of private property in order to enable government to redis- tribute wealth will also want to weaken constitutional pro- tections of free speech in order to empower govern- ment to redistribute ideas. Since then, college cam- puses have been responsive to people eager to regulate what others say, hear and see. Now, in the name of cam- paign finance reform, pro- gressives like Sanders and Clinton want to expand gov- ernment’s regulatory reach to political speech. Both are ardent for equality and, as Brown foresaw, the argument for economic equality easily be- comes an argument for equal- izing political influence. The argument is: Government reg- ulates or seizes property in the name of equity, so why not also, for the same reason, regulate the quantity, content and timing of speech intended to “influence elections”? Progressives, with their collectivist itch, are ever eager to break private in- stitutions to the saddle of the state, and to fill private spaces with regulations. Do they consider government uniquely altruistic and disin- terested? Please. George Will’s email address is georgewill@washpost.com. © 2016, Washington Post Writers Group GEORGE F.

The criminal charge against Craig Gaskill was filed on Feb. 5, two days after Gaskill sought permission to leave the islands by filing a writ of habeas corpus fol- lowing his November arrest. Habeas corpus refers to a legal mechanism by which detainees, typically those in prison, seek release from what they believe to be their unlawful detention. Attorneys for Gaskill filed the writ on Feb. 3, al- leging that the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service im- properly required him to sur- render his passport after he was arrested on Nov. 26. The writ was withdrawn two days later when Gaskill was charged with obtaining prop- erty by deception, police said. Gaskill alleged in the writ that it was not until his wife and two children left the is- lands in early December that police required him to sur- render his U.S. passport, con- sidering him a flight risk at that point. The bail conditions were “unreasonable and dispro- portionate” to the offense being investigated against Gaskill by the RCIPS, the writ alleges. “A reasonable time has elapsed for the full inves- tigation of the allegation against [Gaskill] who is still not charged with any offense [which was the case when the writ was filed on Feb. 3],” the court records state. “Accordingly, his continued arrest on police bail is un- lawful and he is entitled to be released.” An RCIPS spokesperson said Gaskill was not being detained in custody and had been released on police bail. One condition of bail was that his ability to travel out of the country was sus- pended while the investiga- tion was ongoing. The RCIPS declined to discuss specifics of Gaskill’s alleged offense. It will be up to the Cayman Islands court, where Gaskill is due to appear Tuesday, whether his passport will continue to be withheld by authorities, police said. In the writ, Gaskill’s at- torneys argue that his family had no choice but to leave the islands because they are non-Caymanian and not enti- tled to stay. It is stated that his family could not be fi- nancially maintained without him working. When Gaskill informed police on Dec. 9 that he in- tended to visit his family in the United States, the writ states, police initially sought to require an additional surety. The decision to re- quire his passport be sur- rendered was not made until the next day, Dec. 10, the writ alleges. The bail conditions were “unreasonable and disproportionate” to the offense being investigated against Gaskill by the RCIPS, the writ alleges. Government issues minimum wage order Brent Fuller bfuller@pinnaclemedialtd.com The Progressives-led Cabinet is proceeding with its plans for a $6 per hour min- imum wage despite a recent high-profile dispute between Employment Minister Tara Rivers and Cayman Islands Chamber of Commerce, the territory’s largest business representative organization over sweeping changes to the Labour Law. Premier Alden McLaughlin announced in mid-January that government had set a March 1 date for implemen- tation of Cayman’s first min- imum wage, and that the basic wage could be set regardless of whether the administra- tion had passed other legal changes to the country’s em- ployment rules by that time. A Cabinet order made Feb. 9 and issued publicly on Friday set out the terms of the minimum wage commence- ment date and defined the specific categories of workers that could be paid less than the $6 per hour rate, given cer- tain conditions. The provision for a min- imum wage is already con- tained in the current Labour Law and requires only the es- tablishment and recommen- dations of a Minimum Wage Advisory Committee, which government received last year, to put in place. The Labour [National Basic Minimum Wage] Order, 2016, sets a $6 per hour base pay rate for “every hour worked within either the standard work week or the standard work day, depending on the defined pay period.” Workers who receive gra- tuities as part of their job, those who work on commis- sion and domestic helpers who receive “in kind” contri- butions in the form of lodging and/or utilities must be paid a minimum $4.50 per hour, with no more than 25 percent of the $6 per hour minimum wage [$1.50] going toward such “in kind” contributions. The order further states that employees who earn commission shall receive all commissions earned, not merely the additional $1.50 included as part of the min- imum wage. In addition, no employee in the Cayman Islands will re- ceive less than $6 per hour in the employer’s calculation of sick leave, vacation leave, ma- ternity leave or any other ap- plicable leave from their job, the order states. Employers of domestic workers who live in the employers’ home, can al- locate “in kind” benefits for lodging/utilities during the pe- riod of leave, the order states. The future of the Labour Relations Bill, which seeks to repeal and replace the cur- rent Labour Law, was not cer- tain as of press time Sunday. Employment Minister Rivers said Sunday that a govern- ment press release would be issued Monday regarding the minimum wage. Acting Premier Moses Kirkconnell said the Labour Relations Bill has to follow “the normal consultation process” and would certainly not come be- fore the Legislative Assembly before March 1. Chamber of Commerce officials said last week that they were awaiting a new draft version of the labor bill. An initial draft of the pro- posal sought such changes as raising the retirement age from 60 to 65, setting higher payouts in construc- tive dismissal and wrongful dismissal cases, and giving the Cayman Islands Labour Tribunal more power to de- cide administrative disputes, rather than taking those mat- ters to a court. The Chamber does not dispute the proposal with re- gard to retirement age, but other measures that legal advisers to the organization have warned would increase business operating costs have caused concern among busi- ness leaders. The Chamber Council said last week it was informed that many of its recommen- dations regarding the Labour Relations Bill will be in the new draft, but the council was “disappointed” with Minister Rivers for issuing a “negative statement” about the Chamber. Ms. Rivers said ear- lier this month that she was “surprised and deeply dis- appointed” regarding com- ments from former Chamber President Barry Bodden about what the Chamber said was a lack of communica- tion from government about the new labor bill. She said the Chamber was asked to at- tend meetings to discuss the new bill last June, but did not do so. A new system governing prison sentences in the Cayman Islands comes into effect Monday, replacing the former sentencing and pa- role guidelines. The changes were expected to take ef- fect earlier this month, but were pushed back two weeks until Feb. 15. The Conditional Release Law, passed unanimously in October 2014, introduces a system that sets general guidelines for the release of all prisoners on license condi- tions. It applies to all inmates, including juveniles, and to those already serving a life sentence without the possi- bility of parole. In criminal cases, the sen- tencing guidelines – called tariffs – are largely left to the court’s discretion. The only ex- ception stated in the law is for murder offenses, which re- quire a sentence of 30 years prior to any consideration of release on license. Even then, in cases where there are ag- gravated or extenuating cir- cumstances surrounding the killing, the prison term can be set higher or lower by a judge. All other criminal offenses that carry more than a one- year sentence require the of- fender, under the Conditional Release Law, to serve at least 60 percent of that sentence in prison. If the prisoner is deemed to no longer be a threat to the community, he or she will serve the remainder of the sentence under super- vised release. Sentences of a year or less require release after 60 percent of the jail term is served, barring excep- tional circumstances. In order to put the pro- visions of the law into full effect, a nine-person Conditional Release Board will be appointed, consisting of retired lawyers, retired judges, individuals with ex- perience in law enforcement or mental health services, social services, ministers of religion or “any other in- terested persons.” New prisoNer release law takes effectMonday February 15, 2016 • Cayman Compass 6 DISTRICT DAYS District Days George Town 50 Years ago: Cuban refugees, teen dance in the news In the Feb. 16, 1966 edition of the Caymanian Weekly, a precursor of the Cayman Compass, George Town cor- respondent Miss Frances wrote: “It is reported that 3 boat loads of refugees from Cuba landed on Cayman Brac over the weekend. There were 28 persons in all and C.B.A. flew a shuttle service be- tween the Brac and Grand Cayman on Monday and Tuesday in order to transport them here. “Miss B.C. Schofield, nursing ad- viser to the Ministry of Overseas Development, London spent the week- end in Grand Cayman. Miss Schofield is visiting countries in the Caribbean area in order to see what is going on in the nursing world so she can ad- vise the ministry in London. “The ministry gives a good deal of technical assistance in the form of scholarships for training courses and other forms of technical aid. “It is hoped that Miss Schofield’s visit will be a most profitable one, and much good will be derived from it. Miss Schofield was the guest of Dr. and Mrs. T. Husband. “On Friday last, Feb. 11, the first teenage dance party was held at George Town Town Hall. There was a crowd of over 50 boys and girls who, after the first usual shyness in starting to dance, got things going, and the dance was a great success. “Boys and girls contributed their own records. Captain Eldon Kirkconnell very generously lent a magnificent piece of stereo equip- ment, and particular thanks from the committee goes out to him, as also to the VSO teachers, adults, and teenagers themselves who supported the occasion either by their pres- ence and supervision, or by cleaning up the Town Hall on the morning prior to the dance.” Exhibition tour, lecture and lunch at National Gallery The National Gallery will hold a guided tour and garden lunch on Thursday beginning at noon. National Gallery assistant curator Kerri-Anne Chishlom will discuss how the gallery’s current international trav- eling exhibition, “EN MAS’: Carnival and Performance Art of the Caribbean” was devel- oped, and explain the themes and fascinating stories be- hind the contemporary work. The gallery notes that the exhibition, organized by the Contemporary Arts Center, New Orleans, and Independent Curators International, New York, is a pioneering exploration of the influences of carnival on con- temporary performance prac- tices in the Caribbean, North America, and Europe. “Conceived around a se- ries of commissioned perfor- mances across six different countries, the exhibition con- siders the connections be- tween carnival and perfor- mance, masquerade and social criticism, diaspora and trans-nationalism,” the gal- lery states on its website. The tour is free and open to the public, followed by a garden lunch inspired by the flavors and eclectic style of New Orleans cuisine served by the Art Café in the gardens between 12:30 p.m. and 2 p.m. Reservations are recommended for groups of four or more. email events@nationalgallery.org.ky or call 945-8111 for more information.The National Gallery has a free tour lined up on Thursday. - Photo: Steven Clarke Trust family fun day connects kids and nature An afternoon of family fun hosted recently by the National Trust had kids get- ting up-close-and-personal with Cayman’s wilder side. Held at Dart Family Park on South Church Street on Feb. 6, the Little Explorers Family Fun Day offered an afternoon of nature-themed activities. Also featuring face painting by Paradise Pixies, snow cones, a bouncy castle and games, the event was a way for the Trust to high- light its work conserving Cayman’s natural heritage, along with promoting the Trust’s Little Explorers play group for kids ages 3 months to 3 years, organizers said. According to the Trust web- site, the play group was de- signed to encourage families with infants and toddlers to be active participants in their environment by providing ac- cessible, natural and quality play experiences with holistic learning activities focused on children’s physical, personal, social, emotional and spiri- tual well-being, as well as cognitive aspects of learning for children under 3. The Little explorers play group runs from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and from 3 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Thursdays. Call 923-5085 or email clubhouse@nationaltrust. org.ky for more information.Face painting was a big draw.It was a day of fun for kids of all ages.Cayman Compass • Monday February 15, 2016 7 DISTRICT DAYS District Days George Town Autistic son inspires mum to write book Jewel levy jlevy@pinnaclemedialtd.com George Town resident Camele Burke has used her experience as the mother of an autistic child to write a book she hopes will inspire readers to be the best they can be and help others to do the same. Ms. Burke’s son Jeremy was diagnosed with autism in 1998 at age 3; today he is 21. To better understand her son’s condition, Mrs. Burke set out to educate herself to give her son a better chance in life. In her new book, “Become the Person That God Can Trust with the Legacy of the Next G e n e r a t i o n : How to Become Your Best Self and Help Others to do the Same,” Ms. Burke urges readers to go on a spiri- tual journey deep within themselves. Along the way, she gathers in- sight from fa- mous people in history, such as Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Teresa and other great men and women who were an inspiration to others. “Today, everyone knows about autism. Some 20 years ago, I did not even know what the [word] meant,” Ms. Burke said. “Back then, it was the first time I was hearing about this thing. I had no one or nowhere to turn for help. Some people in society treated me like I was the one with autism. Then I turned to God who told me to try this: forget about the label autism and work to un- derstand your son each day by the things he did.” In Chapter 9, Ms. Burke tells what life is like for a person with autism through the eyes of Jeremy, and how, despite his disability, he is able to leave a legacy behind. She encourages readers to spend time alongside people challenged by a disability but who, with some help, can do their part in making a difference in this world. At 21, Jeremy does not work outside the home because he has to be in a controlled environment at all times. However, Ms. Burke works with him to develop his ac- ademic and vocational studies. Some of the proceeds of the book will go toward setting up Jeremy in a home vocation pro- gram where he can learn to make jewelry, said his mother, adding that her son is helpful around the house and basically runs the home. “We are trying to get him into something that belongs to him by creating a work environment from home ... I just got a license for his company Exquisite Creations,” said Ms. Burke. She said she started the book as a “journey through autism,” but felt she did not have enough of the story. Instead, she focused on leader- ship as the main subject of the book to help reach a wider population. She hopes her story inspires other families and that her book will help teach people to draw on the stamina they need to maximize their potential and reach for excellence. While caring for Jeremy as he grew up, Ms. Burke, the mother of two adult sons, burned the mid- night oil to become a qualified chartered accountant and also serves as a notary public. She now can add author to her resume. “I intend to write several books. I already have a second title up on the mirror ready to get going,” she said. In September 2013, Ms. Burke partnered with the teachers at the Lighthouse School to support par- ents and caregivers of children di- agnosed with autism and set up a support group – Autism Support Cayman – and its website, au- tismsupportky.org, Fundraising walk for cancer at GTps George Town Primary School held a school-wide fundraiser on Feb. 3 for the fight against cancer. Each participating child brought in a dollar and wore something yellow.”We had a great turnout, and lots of children and staff had fun walking around the stadium at the beginning of the school day,” said teacher Stephanie Taylor. Camele Burke8 LOCAL NEWS Monday February 15, 2016 • Cayman Compass Watson’s 2007 YCLA award rescinded Brent Fuller bfuller@pinnaclemedialtd.com The board of the Young Caymanian Leadership Awards decided Wednesday to “formally rescind” the award given to Canover Watson in 2007 for out- standing achievement and service to the community. The move follows Watson’s Feb. 4 conviction on five of six corruption-re- lated criminal charges in the CarePay fraud scheme. The charges included two counts of conspiracy to defraud the government with admitted racketeer and business partner Jeffrey Webb, fraud on the government, breach of trust by a public official and conflict of interest under the local Anti-Corruption Law. YCLA honorary board chairman, George Town MLA Roy McTaggart, said the board’s decision was regret- table but necessary. “The YCLA award is a dis- tinction that the recipient car- ries for many years, a badge of honor that implies they will uphold the highest stan- dards of personal and profes- sional conduct at all times, not simply for the year during which they carry the title,” Mr. McTaggart said. “To receive the award is to demonstrate that one has the character and moral fiber to serve as an example – at any age – to the younger generation. “Unfortunately, Mr. Watson’s recent conduct is clearly unbefitting of a YCLA recipient, and it is for this reason that we have retroac- tively revoked the 2007 award.” Mr. McTaggart said the board did not intend to nomi- nate a new awardee for 2007 because the YCLA finalists are never placed in order of first, second, third and so on, making it impossible to de- termine who would have come in “second” that year. He also said it was possible that Watson may have received some cash as part of his YCLA award, but there was no in- tention on the board’s part to try and recover any of that. The Young Caymanian Leadership Award began in 2000, naming its first winner, attorney Olivaire Watler, and going on through the years to nominate among the best and brightest of young Caymanian business and civil service leaders. Award winners include National Gallery curator Natalie Urquhart, Department of Sports Director Collin Anglin, Arch & Godfrey Managing Partner Garth Arch, Cayman Islands Monetary Authority Managing Director Cindy Scotland, Cayman Brac Power and Light’s Jonathan Tibbetts and noted human rights at- torney Sara Collins. No other YCLA recip- ient has had the title re- scinded since the award was established. During Watson’s sentencing on Feb. 5, Grand Court Justice Michael Mettyear noted that he had performed many self- less acts of service to the Cayman Islands government prior to the CarePay scheme, in which he personally prof- ited from the hospital patient swipe-card contract award he directed as Health Services Authority board chairman. His public service, for which, in part, he received the Young Caymanian Leadership Award, in some ways made Watson’s offenses worse, Justice Mettyear said. “You had been an in- spiration to many young Caymanians,” Mr. Mettyear said. “What on Earth must they think now?” Internet companies blocking pirated content ICTA expresses concern over move James Whittaker jwhittaker@pinnaclemedialtd.com At least two Internet companies in the Cayman Islands are now preventing customers from streaming movies, television and other content not licensed for broadcasting in the Cayman Islands. Both FLOW and C3 have confirmed that where pos- sible they are blocking pi- rated content from entering the territory on their net- works. Cayman’s other main Internet service provider Logic did not respond to questions on the issue. Though there are still no up-to-date copyright laws in force in the territory, FLOW says it has a “legal obligation” to protect the rights of copyright owners. C3 said it was following an international trend with providers around the world, including Netflix, pursuing a similar strategy to pre- vent unauthorized use of li- censed content. The Information and Communications Technology Authority said it was investigating the impli- cations of the move. “Any time a telecommu- nications service provider decides to interfere with the services provided to their customers, such as blocking certain websites, or cer- tain content, it raises con- cerns about privacy, extra- legal censorship, and other issues,” said ICTA managing director Alee Fa’Amoe “The Authority is re- viewing the actions of its licensees with respect to unilateral blocking of cer- tain traffic, and will con- sider if any actions are war- ranted once all the facts are available.” It is understood that the move has principally im- pacted Cayman Islands res- idents using Roku or an- droid boxes. The devices, similar to Apple TV set- top boxes, use Web apps to allow users to stream television channels and other content from all over the world. Denise Williams, se- nior vice president of com- munications with Flow’s parent company Cable & Wireless Communications, declined to reveal how the company was blocking con- tent, but insisted it was not snooping on its customers’ Internet use. She said, regardless of Cayman law, the company has an obligation under U.S. law to ensure compliance with telecommunications licenses. She said it was taking similar action across the Caribbean after several re- quests to its U.S. operation from copyright holders re- questing it to stop illegal content being accessed through its network. “Content that is not cleared for the region is therefore being blocked from entering the region by our team in the United States,” she said. “We wish to reiterate that C&W does not mon- itor what our customers ac- cess on the Internet, nor do we know what they are watching. We are simply preventing illegal content from entering the region on our network.” A spokesman for C3 con- firmed it was using the same strategy. “As a licensed content provider, C3 is obligated by the content owners to mitigate any unauthor- ized use of the content we are legally providing in the market. To this end, we are blocking the IP addresses of these pirated content pro- viders. C3 will remain vig- ilant in blocking future IP addresses conducting these pirate activities.” The extent to which the companies have been able to disrupt users from pi- rating content is not clear. Sandra Hill, a business- woman who runs RoCay, which sells Roku streaming boxes to consumers, said some customers had been impacted. She said some were switching Internet service providers as a result of the move. Ms. Hill said she was disappointed at the “tactic,” which she believes is de- signed to limit consumer choice and force more people to buy FLOW TV. “In the final analysis, they are losing customers who do not trust them with their Internet and have online privacy con- cerns,” she said. Ms. Hill also ques- tioned whether FLOW, as an Internet service provider, had the authority to police copyright in the Cayman Islands. Mr. Fa’Amoe said the ICTA would be pon- dering the implications of the actions. “In other countries, these kinds of issues have been explored in great detail and, as a result, concepts around net neutrality have emerged,” he said. He told the Cayman Compass in an earlier in- terview that the rights of companies to pro- tect their copyright had to be balanced with the rights of consumers. “As a democracy, we need to balance the rights of a copyright holder with the privacy rights of our citi- zens. Just because you own a copyright doesn’t neces- sarily give you or a law en- forcement body the right to monitor the Web surfing ac- tivity of Internet customers, who have some expectation of privacy.” He said he was generally unconcerned about people using Roku boxes or other technology to stream copy- righted content. He said they were not breaking any Cayman Islands law that he was aware of and formed a small part of the market. “None of our television providers in Cayman,” he said, “entered the TV space blindly or without the full knowledge that there were already alternatives avail- able here in this market, whether from satellite dish providers or Internet streaming boxes like AppleTV or Roku. “The bottom line is that disruption is nothing new. So, if you’re a telecom ser- vice provider anywhere in the world, including Cayman, my advice is – ac- cept that disruption is an integral part of your in- dustry. Improve your own network and services and compete to win your cus- tomers’ business.” He said the ICTA would not be the body enforcing copyright legislation, if and when it is passed. And he insisted the regulator was more focused on ensuring its licensees maintained a higher level of service. “Our ability to compete as a global financial center and a regional tourism des- tination will not be deter- mined by a few local com- panies offering streaming video boxes. It will, how- ever, be radically im- pacted by poor telecom ser- vice or high prices or the lack of choice. “We have lost millions of dollars of inward invest- ment because of our lack of high-quality telecom infra- structure. To date, I’m not aware of any multimillion dollar deals failing to close because of a local streaming set-top box couldn’t deliver the latest episode of the ‘Voice.’ The ICTA, the local ICT industry, and the en- tire jurisdiction have bigger fish to fry.” “The YCLA award is … a badge of honor that implies they will uphold the highest standards of personal and professional conduct at all times, not simply for the year during which they carry the title,” Roy McTaggaRT, YCLA board chairman Happier days: Canover Watson holding his YCLA trophy in February 2007. Both FLOW and C3 have confirmed that where possible they are blocking pirated content from entering the territory on their networks. The islands’ most-trusted news source 9 Cayman Compass • Monday February 15, 2016 men and other individuals who were or are currently members of the Cayman Islands Football Association had embarked upon. One such venture included the failed bid to set up a SuperMed Pharmacy in the Cayman Islands; another in- volved the opening of a petrol station in Red Bay for which Webb had apparently reim- bursed Watson. According to information revealed at Watson’s trial, Mr. Sanders’s involvement in the CarePay probe was central be- cause he appeared to be the first Cayman Islands govern- ment official to raise concerns regarding what he suspected to be corruption in connection with the award of the five-year, US$13 million deal. Watson was convicted at trial of di- recting that contract to a local company, Advanced Integrated Systems Cayman Ltd., which prosecutors said he and Webb ran behind the scenes. In July 2011, following the failure of the first attempt to implement the CarePay swipe- card system at the Cayman Islands Hospital, Mr. Sanders said he sent an email to friends and family members in the U.S. remarking that he be- lieved government ministers were behind Watson’s back- room dealings. “Mr. Watson continued to invoke the interest of the pre- mier and [health] minister in this project,” Mr. Sanders tes- tified in December. “We had to have something by July 1 [2011] ... so that they could declare a political victory.” It was in September 2011 that Mr. Sanders dis- closed his concerns about CarePay and AIS to Nancy Kirkconnell-Ewing, who had an interest in another com- pany – Brac Informatics – that had wanted to bid for the hospital contract, but bowed out at the last minute, telling Watson they believed the bid process was rigged. During the 2011 visit to Cayman Brac, Mr. Sanders made “confidential allegations” to Moses Kirkconnell, Mrs. Kirkconnell-Ewing’s brother, about what he believed to be corruption in the hospital con- tract agreement. Individuals mentioned included Watson, former Health Minister Mark Scotland and former Premier McKeeva Bush. Watson’s attorney, Trevor Burke, QC, asked Mr. Sanders what right he had to men- tion Mr. Scotland or Mr. Bush’s name in connection with the CarePay deal. Mr. Sanders re- sponded that he had no spe- cific evidence, but got the im- pression that Watson would not have been directing the CarePay contract bid process in such a way unless he had gov- ernment’s approval to do so. Mr. Burke suggested that then-Minister Scotland cer- tainly supported the CarePay project, but that didn’t mean he was involved in anything illegal. Mr. Sanders acceded the point and noted that up until that stage, he thought Mr. Scotland was an honor- able man. New contract? In the summer 2013, fol- lowing the election of the Progressives-led government in the Cayman Islands, Mr. Sanders went to Washington, D.C. for a conference and there met two ministers of the new government, Mr. Kirkconnell and then-Health Minister Osbourne Bodden. Mr. Sanders said the two ministers wanted to discuss the CarePay contract situation and that Mr. Bodden wanted to talk about the development of government’s new strategic healthcare plan. “Did the deputy premier [referring to Mr. Kirkconnell] promise you a ... consultancy agreement if you helped them?” Mr. Burke asked, re- ferring to the CarePay inves- tigation that was under way at that time. Mr. Sanders replied, “No, and I was not interested in that. Now, advising Minister Bodden on his strategic plan [for healthcare], I would be interested in that.” During Watson’s trial, Mr. Sanders said he could not re- call or could not provide the details of any payments he had received since his first employment contract with the Health Services Authority had ended in 2012. It is those contract details the Compass sought to obtain in its open records request to the Health Services Authority. The IT consultant’s con- tract with the HSA in its final year was worth approxi- mately $10,000 per month be- tween 2011 and 2012. Mr. Sanders testified that while this amount might seem like a large paycheck to some, his annual income in the U.S. healthcare in- dustry was typically about US$1 million per year, and in- dicated that he didn’t really need a Cayman Islands gov- ernment contract. “Well, lucky you,” Mr. Burke remarked. George Town Police Station on Friday, is suspected in the Feb. 8 indecent assault on a female running along Walkers Road. He is also suspected in two other similar incidents from Jan. 28 and Jan. 30 along the George Town waterfront. He had not been charged in any of the at- tacks as of press time Sunday. Since last May, all nine attacks on female joggers in Grand Cayman have occurred around dawn. The suspects are aggres- sive, groping or grabbing women, but typically are not violent, except for in one instance in The Shores neighborhood in West Bay on Oct. 13, 2015. Prior to Thursday’s ar- rest, RCIPS officers stepped up patrols in the Walkers Road-South Sound area. Officers did not specifically state how the suspect in this case was arrested. Police have gener- ally advised female jog- gers to go with a “running buddy” rather than ven- ture out alone in the early morning. Officers also urge any other women who may not have come forward in the recent indecent assault cases to do so. The sharp increase in ar- rivals appears to be putting a strain on the island’s finances as well as its infrastructure. There are currently 123 migrants on island, spread between the Immigration Detention Center and com- munity centers in East End, North Side and Bodden Town. Since the current finan- cial year began in July 2015, the government has spent an estimated $870,000 on mi- grants, according to a state- ment from the Immigration Department on Thursday. This year alone, 122 Cuban migrants have landed in the Cayman Islands, joining scores of others who were already being held here awaiting repatriation to Cuba. Since Jan. 1, 52 mi- grants have been returned to their home countries, meaning a net increase of 70 migrants since the turn of the year. The end of hurricane season and fear over a pos- sible change in U.S. policy on Cuban immigration appears to be fueling the recent in- crease, according to officials. Anxiety over possible changes to the “wet-foot, dry- foot” policy, which allows privileges to Cubans entering the U.S. that are not typically afforded to migrants from other countries, has been blamed for driving up illegal immigration from Cuba over the past two years. The Cayman Islands gov- ernment spent just $26,031 in the 2011 calendar year on providing support and as- sistance to migrants. That number had risen to $1.576 million by 2014. The figure of $870,000 quoted by officials on Thursday for the first six months of the 2015/16 finan- cial year suggests the eco- nomic cost continues to grow. The high number of mi- grants has also raised secu- rity concerns, as a number of escapes have been reported in the past month. Two Cuban migrants who absconded when their boat washed up in Beach Bay at the end of January were still at large as of Thursday. Another seven migrants who escaped from the William Allen McLaughlin Civic Centre have all been caught. Five appeared in Summary Court on Thursday and were sentenced to a day in prison. Immigration officials have urged the public not to ap- proach any person whom they suspect to be a missing migrant, asking that they call police or the Immigration Department instead. They also warned the public not to assist migrants, either on land or in local waters, with food, shelter, transportation or “other forms of comfort.” According to a statement form the department, the re- striction on assistance is in part due to the dangerous and potentially fatal journey the migrants face if they are assisted in patching up their boats and returning to sea. The department says gov- ernment is responsible for ensuring migrants have ac- cess to food, shelter and med- ical assistance while they are in Cayman. “All rights and privileges are extended to these mi- grants according to local and international laws and conventions,” said Acting Chief Immigration Officer Bruce Smith. lasting anywhere from four to 10 hours. A power transformer was also re- ported to have blown out as a result of the crash. Caribbean Utilities Company representatives contacted on Sunday said the power outage was ini- tially reported at 3:17 a.m. and that crews had power restored to most of West Bay by 6:20 a.m. Areas affected by the outage included all of North West Point from West Bay’s four- way stop to Bosun Bay. Inland areas including Hell, Reverend Blackman Road and some parts of Town Hall Road were also without power. The large power pole, which guides one of CUC’s main supply lines to the area, had to be replaced as a result of the accident, of- ficials said.
