Newt Utopia: Cayman Islands – The Fruits of Appeasement

I have been going to Cayman since the early 1980s and I have never seen so much change occur in a small place in such a short time. I still remember the raid on the Bank of Credit & Commerce International when, in the wee hours of the morning, I got to watch the first part of the raid from the parking lot of Burger King across the way from their building, which began with an Armored Personnel Carrier full of soldiers arriving at BCCI’s offices. The suits came the next morning.
