Jamaica’s Former Prime Minister Testifies That He Was Not Under The Dudus Coke Code Of Silence

brucegolding1 — Former Prime Minister Bruce Golding testifies during Tivoli Enquiry trial in Jamaica.

Bruce Golding has testified that he is not afraid of Christopher ‘Dudus ‘ Coke and that he wasn’t under a code of silence.

“Mr Golding, were you afraid of Dudus?” Linton Gordon, who is representing the JDF asked.

“No, I wasn’t,” Golding responded.

He was also asked by Gordon if he was under a code of silence and “that you cannot speak freely”, but Golding said, “No sir, I was just giving context”.

Gordon asked Golding about a code of silence because of his long, winding response to a question about garrison politics and his reference to Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller’s South West St Andrew constituency. Golding said too that Coke was “very dominant in the west Kingston constituency when he (Golding) became member of Parliament there.

Griselda Blanco – Godmother of Cocaine

Griselda Blanco was the Godmother of the Medellín Cartel. She distributed millions in cocaine and was feared in the underworld as much as any of her male counterparts. She was well respected in her younger years as a coke trader but in her later years Blanco’s past seemed to have come back to haunt her. She was eventually cut down by two masked gunman as she left a Colombian butcher shop. She was 69 years old at the time of her murder.

Killers Without Conscience

Griselda Blanco rose to the top of the world of drugs because she was the baddest of the bad. She was a drug lord for the Medellín Cartel, and a pioneer in the Miami-based cocaine drug trade and underworld during the 1970s and early 1980s. US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent Bob Palombo said of her “I don’t think the fact that she was a female trying to prove something had anything to do with her violent behavior; I just think it was inherent to Griselda Blanco. This goes back to her life, the way she was brought up. She was just a violent person.” Her upbringing was violent, neglectful and depraved. This became her future kingdom.

“Hollywood vs The Mob: Fact vs Fiction”

I have a confession to make. I love a good gangster movie. Like, really love. While most girls prefer a romance or comedy or even a romantic comedy–I prefer a crime flick. If the crime is organized, even better. That being said, one day while strolling through Wal-Mart I stumbled across one of the best buys in the $5 DVD bin that I could ever imagine (besides the Cashmere Mafia DVD collection series (which has absolutely nothing to do with the real mafia) that I scored for $1 at Target but we’ll talk about that later).

At the top of the discounted pile of movies and cds was “Hollywood vs The Mob: Fact vs Fiction”. I tend to collect crime movies of any kind, especially if they’re on sale. From “The Godfather” to ‘Goodfellas” to “Shottas”, I own them all. This flick was $5 and I couldn’t resist, for 5 bucks it was worth the gamble to see if I’d like it –couldn’t hurt right? Well, needless to say –I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! This DVD showcases Hollywood’s portrayal of the mob vs the real mob and “separates truth from myth”.
