The live stream failed due to technical issues, but I've watched the subsequently published recording and just had to smile at the results. The imputations by counsel for the BVI government were rebuffed with a stern rebuke, the BVI Attorney General said not a word (wisely), the $US 5 Million local law firm Silk Legal said but a few sentences (which even the commissioner looked confused by) that made no sense and then the meeting was adjourned. The COI mentioned a "saga" getting the requested documents. Mentioned how "Hurricane Irma destruction" was used as an excuse for not producing documents that are only a year old. I remember watching Perry Mason episodes as a kid and then experiencing many real courtrooms as a participant - and this livestream is much closer to the former than the (rather boring) latter. I am confidant that the future proceedings will be damning for the BVI. So far, without exception, the witnessing have had bad memories, bad paperwork, vague recollections, and have professed to be only marginally associated with others - even though those others are close relatives
