And while the personalities involved are all from the Orange Walk area, the island involved in this case is off San Pedro. Mosquito Caye - according to Briceno - was the prize all along:..

Hon. John Briceno - Leader of the Opposition
"Now this Mosquito Caye land swap is an obscene UDP scam designed to reward Vegas with their own private island located right next to Leonardo De Caprio's Black adore Caye. It was never about Mr. Henry and Ms. Forte and Guzman, it was never about them. I'm not even sure if Guzman and Henry got that, I don't know who they are, I haven't spoken to them but at least Ms. Forte was brave enough to come forth and say she didn't get this land, so it was not about them it was about the Vegas, it was about compensating them. Once this land was passed over which they knew was private land because there was already a case about it then he then decided to I'm not going to compensate who we gave it to, I'm going to compensate who have it, my family members, that was always the scheme, that was always the scam so that his family can get hold of an island that is worth about 5 million US dollars right now on the market."

As of tonight, Andre Vega - through his attorney - has basically renounced the deal and surrendered the 7 acres he got as compensation on Mosquito Caye.
