## Resource

Former premier of Turks and Caicos, Michael Misick, has been sentenced to over four years in prison for corruption, convicted on three counts of bribery — a verdict he claims is politically motivated but the court clearly didn’t buy. His brother, attorney Thomas Misick, also received a four-year sentence, and former Cabinet minister McAllister Hanchell faces three years. All three are now in custody and plan to appeal. The scandal dates back to 2009, when Misick resigned after Britain imposed direct rule due to widespread corruption. With sentencing now finalized, the legal fallout continues as the territory watches the appeals unfold. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
