There is obviously a lot more to figure out about this issue, but you made some really good points. I will definitely be checking here more often. Thank you.

I read elsewhere that Ms. Hunter stopped in Alabama enroute to the US Virgin Islands to pick up a passport for her baby. Why would she do that, when she does not need a passport to go to the USVI?

Owens Corning also settled a huge asbestos suit in Puerto Rico in 2006.

Why does so much of the John Edwards investigation originate back to links at the New York Times, yet they really have done almost no investigation of this case.

The NYT should have owned this.

Maybe they’ve got a fixer in Turks and Caicos.

If they were setting up a clandestine meeting, the goal would be to make the second travel leg untraceable.

When you draw a line between Turks and St Croix and Puerto Rico is the obvious meeting point.

Let’s see, a US territory subject to US courts and a client using only Asbestos lawyers as fixers… whom would I choose.

Wow. looks like there was a $1.3 billion dollar Asbestos settlement in Puerto Rico in the 90′s

ER…Just saw it calculated to St Croix, INDIANA. LOL

For some reason, I can’t get the program to take a USVI site. Here’s the distance from Distance between Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos Islands and San Juan, Puerto Rico, United States, as the crow flies:
391 miles (630 km) (340 nautical miles)

St Croix is about 100 miles South of PR, if I remember correctly…so it would be almost 500 miles between Provo and St Croix. Not exactly an “island hop” by boat.

Why risk it, though, when they could go to the USVI or PR, which are (a) less than 100 miles from St Croix and (b) require no such risks?

FYI – Distance between Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos Islands and Saint Croix, Indiana, United States, as the crow flies:
1477 miles (2377 km) (1283 nautical miles)
