IS THERE A CONNECTION BETWEEN JAMES RICHARDSON'S STAY AT THE TAMARIND HOTEL, AND THE ATTACK THAT OCCURED THERE?

James Richardson, head of the VDSM (St Maarten Secret police) ended up missing for several months, and although there were questions in the papers back in Late June, early July it wasn't until last week that James Richardson finally made his re-appearance, with some strange statements and accusations. One statement in his interview was that he had been staying at the Tamararind hotel in Point Blanche, the same hotel where a Security Guard was found injured several weeks ago. Considering the severity of the mysterious attack and injuries to security guard, it was surprising that why the person interviewing James Richardson didn't ask him whether there was a connection to his hiding out at the hotel, and the security guard being injured. Was the security guard there specifically for James Richardson's protection? There were tens of thousands missing from the VDSM budget when Richardson disappeared several months ago. Richardson claimed that the money was spent on his lavish hide out at the Tamarind, but there is a ten thousand dollar discrepancy between what is missing, and what was spent while he was hiding out. James Richardson also clarified that he had been hiding out from people trying to kill him, and had spent thousands on a security wall for his private home. The money of course came from his VDSM expense account, which is covered by the St Maarten taxpayer. Back when James Richardson turned up missing in June, there were also cryptic statements being made about illegal wire tapping, phone tapping and surveillance. Mr Richardson never clarified whether this was the reason behind his alleged 'death threats'.
It appears that someone was giving through political favors, a high ranking position. It appears that they took advantage of their position and the the taxpayer money that was entrusted to them to be able to do their job well. This person seems to have many excuses now, but nothing adds up, and it appears that now, not only are there questions about the legality and ethics of what the VDSM were doing, there are also questions as to whether James Richardson simply took advantage of his position of authority and expense account. The investigation continues, but oddly enough the one investigating Mr Richardson, also are said to be under investigation as well.
