    Mariana reminds me of what we used to say about Vice news journalist interviewing a terrorist, nerves of steel. Fearless journalism. Love it. I will just say my actual reaction to these scammers is a strange mixed emotion like I both hate what they do and that they're doing it and want them to be punished but also at the same time feel a strange degree of pity after your reporting because this crime is obviously aggravated and agitated by extreme poverty in Jamaica, it doesn't help. If these people had jobs that paid a decent wage and were stable, perhaps they could be convinced that even though it wasn't quite as lucrative, at least you didn't risk being thrown behind bars and everything else for it.

    • @TeaCup1940
      @TeaCup1940 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are many poor people in Jamaica and in the world that do not scam, steal or do illegal things to get money. Poor and honest people do exist. Also they should stop making excuses for slavery. Slavery existed everywhere in the world. If they want money, why not put up an honest business with good products to sell to the American people they scam? Also those they scam are not at fault for their financial issues. Their own government is at fault for not forcing those resorts to pay them fair wages.
