- New banking information and its implications analysed.

TORONTO, Canada – MSR Media brought to light the legal propensity on November 20, 2023, first published in Caribbean News Global (CNG) – ‘Discounting and financing CBI schemes heads to US courts.’
MSR Media’s campaign to end corruption in the Caribbean countries’ CBI programme and the subsequent filing of the RICO lawsuit in US Federal court, continues to tell the story forcefully in a legal context.
“This has created a complex mechanism that plausibly, violates US and international law; and created an explosion in certain markets for CBI applications. The effect of discounting and financing CBI schemes is an increase in applicants with much lower net worth and motives. Two issues arise: Applicants pay a fraction of the legal price – thus – more units/passports are required.”
Reportedly, new audio, text messages, interviews, pronouncements and national addresses revealed the MSR Media requisite for an extended CBI RICO lawsuit on Saint Lucia.
Subsequent to MSR Media’s concerns last November about ‘finance and discounting schemes‘ in the CBI program and in response to MSR Media’s campaign to end corruption in the CBI industry on May 23, 2024, filed two lawsuits in the United States Federal Court.
“A RICO lawsuit in the US Federal court against defendants primarily of St Kitts and Nevis origin includes McClaude Emmanuel (CEO of the St Lucia CIP).” The second lawsuit comprises judicial review in the High Court in St Kitts. The claim is seeking “an order of mandamus requiring” prime minister, in his capacity as minister of national security, to “revoke all citizenships granted to applicants,” according to MSR Media, under the St Kitts Prison Project “who paid less than the legal price.”
CNG inquired on May 29, 2024, ‘Has CIP St Lucia chairman resigned?’ To date, there has been no official communication in the proficiency of standard communication and protocol. Perhaps this is still subject to reasonable doubt.
The article ‘St Lucia’s CIP is a soap opera’ June 24, 2024, submitted:
- “Will there be a CBI programme in three months?”, a Washington CBI expert inquired.
- RICO lawsuit in US Federal court can accede into a criminal lawsuit;
- “From now on – no questions – no answers,” says Prime Minister Philip J Pierre;
- St Lucia signs Caribbean CBI countries (MOA) – Memorandum-of-Agreement-CBIP-20-March-2024
“There are three constants to Saint Lucia’s Citizenship by Investment (CIP) in the soap opera performed by tangled characters and melodramatic drama that conflates issues; – the soap opera sale of Saint Lucian passports – the number of passports sold and revenue is a hidden arithmetic equation – the political and economic promise of governance that has descended to a personality complex, far removed from the pertinent matter of the CBI programme,” the article noted.
On July 23, 2024, the US Southern District of Florida, concluded:
“Accordingly, the Motion for Discovery (ECF No. 35) is GRANTED in that Applicants are granted leave to serve subpoenas on Bank of America, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., respectively, in the form proposed as Exhibit B to the Renewed Application [ECF No. 35-3] as modified by this Order.”
The news that Saint Lucia was implicated in a CBI RICO lawsuit filed in US Federal Court, fetched many reactions. The new and renewed attention on Saint Lucia by MSR Media to file a RICO lawsuit in US Federal Court is very consequential, as previously alluded:
“Should this lawsuit hold … albeit … evidence gathering and discovery played out in US courts,” said a Washington-based CIP professional, “this potentially has the footnote to uproot the who’s who of the Saint Lucian society and ostensibly, the CIP programme … the game is over.”
It is communicated that MSR Media’s ongoing televised interviews and this Thursday’s schedule will provide epic revelations. (currently and publically unknown).
CNG previously noted that “Right now, it appears that Saint Lucia is in a disadvantageous status quo locally, regionally and internationally.”
The optics herein indicate, that political gamesmanship and CBI/CIP implications will impact all five Caribbean islands.
