Panama vs Journalism - Mounting Support for Eric Jackson
By The Boss on Jun 1, 2008 | In Politics, Media, Expat, Business | 1 feedback »
Real estate developer Sam Taliaferro is urging his readers to support Eric Jackson, the publisher of The Panama News, who is facing criminal prosecution under Panama's antiquated "crimes against the honor" laws. A court date has been set for August 20th this year to deal with charges based on a complaint by one Marc Boswell:
The accuser is one Mark Boswell, a Colorado "patriot" movement radio personality of the 1990s who, after promoting a conspiracy theory and spending time in prison, adopted the alias Rex Freeman and became an offshore investment guru to an Internet casino operator in Costa Rica. With Costa Rican authorities investigating him for financial crimes, he came to Panama, where he offers unlicensed investment funds and banking services over the Internet in open violation of Panamanian law.
This Boswell guy and his activities are - OF COURSE! - actively promoted by Don Winner of The Panama Guide.
It would be nice if other real estate developers or brokers followed Taliaferro's example.
Obviously Panama's prosecutors are preparing to fall flat on their face in total embarrassment with this case; reason enough for Bananama Republic to promise you live coverage of August 20 events should this nonsense indeed make it to the courtroom.
