Dear Source:

Re: Plaskett and Biggs Guilty…Finally! These two were not only found guilty as charged, but it can now be seen that they were responsible for the continuing ruin of our environment as a result of their actions. Much needed environmental monitoring to protect our island from damage was not getting done. Who can predict what the long-term effects of this will be? Another nail in St. Croix's coffin due to greed?
I can only hope that the other businesses and individuals that benefited from these schemes will be brought to justice as well. We only need to follow the money, but all the way to the end. Who else got contracts while Plaskett and Biggs were at their jobs?
