An article on sentencing for lotto scammer was interesting (to me) in the sentencing judges' statement ( U.S. District Judge Daniel Hovland).
“I know you weren’t the first person. I know you won’t be the last. It’s going on forever; it’s a way of life in Jamaica,” Hovland told Willocks.
Seems a rather cynical, even if accurate, view of Jamaica.
Note that Willocks also would dispute the title of the Gleaner article. He said something to the effect of "I'm not a kingpin and the scam would've happened with out me".
