You know nothing about my pastimes and to imply that I spend too much time following you and Walter is absurd. The reality is that it's nearly impossible for anybody to avoid you, Walter and even Keith Woolford since all three of you are omnipresent on Ning and Chiriquí Life.
The difference between you and me is that I choose NOT to comment on every subject, thread, point and posting.
Some people don't realize how massively over exposed they are with their incessant chatter and need for attention - - enough of the "Swimming in Lake Me" .
You live in Fort Worth, Texas - - why do you even care what happens here?
Can't you find something more interesting to do closer to home than to bother us?
You and Walter Steiner spend an unhealthy amount of time posting here, when neither one of you ever intends to live in Boquete.
You went away and didn't post for several years - - best thing that ever happened to Ning.
Not very nice if you are referring to Jim, considering he is married to a Panamanian and has family there, it is only fitting he is very involved in the daily happenings of Panama
Former President Martinelli's dream team of legal advisors held a press conference yesterday afternoon to announce that they plan to sue the Panamanian ambassador to the U.S.
Its not my intention to defend Martinelli but that is a rhetorical question.........Why did Balladares flee to Peru? Obviously he would be at a severe disadvantage if he stayed........When was the last time you took a good hard look at the Panamanian justice system Juan?.........Where does Panama stand in the corruption index internationally?
The reasons for denying bail are based on him posing a flight risk and not in the strength of his case, that is why it has been expedited to July 25
He can however, avoid jail in the US altogether and come to Panama but being that the Panama justice is being biased, he rather wait in jail
..we still cannot grant the request to release this defendant based upon the overwhelming risk of flight that is present in this record.
B. There are no traditional "Special Circumstances" in this record that warrant Bail.
1. Pres. Martinelli has not raised numerous claims with a high probability of success.
