That was just so dumb, these locals are the ones who have your back. It is a miracle they were ever seen again; Who would want to stay on the island after the invasion? There must be more to this story; The judge let everyone walk? That seems odd, even in a highly corrupted society.

"It's in the architectural stage! 4200 square feet, it's the retirement home you've always dreamed of!" Luckily his parents were smart enough to not go for it. He wound up in prison within 6 months, so the choice was made for them anyway.

      You correct. Some people are drawn to chaos. They like to create drama if it hasn’t already been created.
      This couple had a lot of debt when they lived in England, which means they’re irresponsible. So it’s no surprise that these financially irresponsible people would try to buy an island and start a resort with very little research on the financial costs as well as the requirements to do such a thing in a country known for corruption.
      A few years ago, our family wanted to take a trip to an exotic island or other tropical location. My sister did the research and a lot of the places we were considering were too dangerous for tourists. So we did not go to those places. She did research before we made plans. This couple could have done the same thing. Do research first before you sell your house and move your family to some far away location where you don’t understand the language or the customs.

    Nicaragua? Are you KIDDING me?

It was called the "Mosquito Coast" for goodness sake. Perhaps the island could be called "Malaria Island" instead of "Jenique"! I am a parent and now old enough to realise the stupid things I did financially in my younger years and that I am STILL suffering the the effects of now as I prepare to hit my 60's, but even I I would NEVER have gone THAT far. Poor kiddos, I hope that they have properly grieved the loss of their father but, as much as I respect all creatures, I cannot imagine how they feel knowing that he's buried on a snake farm in one of the most corrupt nations, not only in South America but globally!

My Mom bilked more goofball guys out of family houses than I could count. She had a new “Rich” idoit every year. She is now “retired” and on SSI. All her bad deeds cought up with her and she is now acting like a schizophrenic patient and I’m worried she has early onset Dementia.

People were sold dreams there and then boarded the Mayflower, convinced that fortune awaited even though they did not know how to raise crops. Likewise the Donner Party who was convinced by a businessman Hastings who stood to gain from Oregon trail families taking the "Hastings Cutoff" which he promised in pamphlets was a developed better route, in the hopes that foolish people would believe him and do the development work instead of what actually happened, which was their famous and tragic case of cannibalism and madness. Lots of Businesses are cons to defraud people. Buyer beware.

By then, she had already moved on with a long-haired, snake-breeder named Steve Hill. Phil's decomposing body was shown in an open casket, with Jayne (wearing a pink satin bustier) forcing Pokemon cards and trinkets in his pockets before burying him on the snake farm owned by her new lover." Even more fun is later it was discovered her husband and the father of the children was still alive and looking for them.

People are making a go of it in all kinds of places down there but it takes a lot more than just an adventurous attitude. Those folks had the right attitude, they were just totally clueless. And they attracted some bad people. Columbia, El Salvador and parts of Belize would make Bluefields seem rather tame by comparison. As for corruption , it's everywhere down there.
