Fahie now released on bail, sources say

Disgraced former Premier, Andrew Fahie.

Highly-placed sources have informed BVI News that former Premier of the Virgin Islands, Andrew Fahie has posted his one-million-dollar bail in Miami, Florida.

When our news centre contacted Miami court officials for confirmation on Monday, June 13, we were informed that his release had not yet reflected on his file.

BVI News was told it usually takes at least 24 hours before any changes to court records become available.

Earlier this month, a Nebbia proffer was made for Fahie with the document naming local businessman Albion ‘Bobby’ Hodge as the person funding the bail.

Fahie, who was arrested in the United States on charges of drug smuggling and money laundering, was offered bail in the sum of $1,000,000 which came with a Nebbia condition attached to half of the funds.

This effectively means Fahie must disclose the source of funds used to acquire the assets used for posting bail.

Hodge’s affidavit document and its exhibits serve as evidence of the source of funds used to pay for the premium for the $500,000 corporate surety bond in place for Fahie.

In addition, the condition of the bail requires Fahie to wear an ankle monitor and his defence attorney can only visit him at his daughters’ apartment in southwest Miami-Dade County.

His family (daughters and wife) must also surrender their passports to United States officials. Fahie also cannot be found within close distance to any transportation centres including bus stops.

Fahie’s trial is expected to begin in the middle of next month.

    BVI News your highly source informer is slow with todays news and that is quite understandable because you want to see it in black and white but the yellow site beat you to the headliner today.

    What I would like to see on your site is more due diligence to protect individuals from defamation of character dragging people name in the dirt for trying to help the former Premier.

    Now his mouth will be running faster than he can move. I hope the US Marshall’s have the house under surveillance or Fat Albert is on his way in a fast boat with da family to Haiti by way of da Bahamas. I hope he arranged for a big fast boat. That’s a lot of beef for a small boat to handle. I think he’ll be having dinner before he runs. Too much ham sandwich for weeks in da jail.

    We are NOT associating with you as our representative as you are NOT in a position to conduct any duties. We therefore “WE” ask that you RESIGN THAT POSITION so that “WE” can carry on living our free dignified and productive lives!

    Out for a brief stay, after which he will not see the light of day for a very very long time, for committing his crimes.
    My opinion has a point in true, if you believed in him, well he fooled you too!
    After the trial when the cell doors close, Sobbing blowing his nose Drew will then realise his game is through.
