US senators enter fray over jailed Georgia teen

Skylar Mack arrives at the Cayman Islands courthouse

(CNS): Skylar Mack was in the US news once again over the Christmas break after the two sitting senators from Georgia called for her release from jail in the Cayman Islands. Mack and her her Caymanian boyfriend, Vangae Ramgeet, are both serving a two-month prison sentence for breaching local COVID-19 isolation rules. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, who are both Republican incumbents facing run-off senate elections on 5 January, sent a letter this weekend to the Acting Consul General of the US Embassy in Jamaica asking him to intervene.

The senators said they were supporting her request for release and understood the right of the Cayman Islands “to enact appropriate regulations to protect the safety of its residents during this trying time and to impose fair sentences against those who violate such restrictions”.

But they said Mack had admitted guilt, regretted her actions and paid what they said was a substantial fine, and had been incarcerated for over a week.

However, the senators were factually incorrect, as Mack has not paid a fine but had paid costs to cover her stay at the government quarantine facility after she breached the home-isolation rules.

Mack and Ramgeet have now served nearly two weeks of their two month sentence and are expected to stay in jail for another two weeks unless they are released early on compassionate or other grounds at the discretion of the prison director.

The senators also raised the allegation made by her family that Mack has received “numerous threats against her life following the publicity of her case”, even though it is the family that is largely responsible for maintaining the publicity.

Mack’s family has also asked the White House and Georgia’s governor to intervene. They have been doing the media rounds in the US making a number of false and misleading statements about the case.

Meanwhile, here in Cayman Ramgeet’s family has remained silent about the plight of their loved one, who also spent Christmas in jail. Ramgeet aided and abetted Mack when he went to collect her from the place where she was supposed to be in home isolation and took her to a Jet Ski event where he was competing. The local watersports star won the race but organisers have since taken back the trophy and prize money. He also faces a temporary ban by the watercraft association on competing.

    Well, we had Bryce Merren try to sell drugs. He apologized, felt remorse, and was sent to jail. Did we ask for him back? Naaaaaa keep him, that what we said.

    Lot of wound-up Caymanians and expat progressives here… Seems like ya’ll are ready for a good witchburning. Hmmh, yes, she deserved jail, yes she was completely disrespectful and, yes, she endangered the whole community – so she’s in jail, and serving her time. However, if only 1/10th of the passion anger, and indignation directed towards this girl would be directed towards your government officials, you know, Daldon Gotabigstickuphis Azz, McDonald’s, and all remaining smorgasbord of useless and self-serving PIGS (minus one or two decent ones) feasting at the public trough year after year, perhaps you’d be covered in far fewer fleas. My guess is that won’t happen, certainly not when you allow them to buy you up with toasters, microwaves, ovens and dryers, and any other type of third world country politricks. So to me, it sure seems like your energy ought to be directed towards more important things – Ms. Mack has been caught, she’s serving her time, and eventually she’ll be a little speck in history – luckily she managed not to kill any of you; not so sure about some of the politicians. The Honourable Joke McDonald’s will return for another 500 years and end up in Heroes Square before he calls it quits – seems he’s the bigger problem to fry. Just sayin…

    The hatred displayed in these comments toward Americans is disgusting. I was once a regular visitor to Cayman, no more. The former tourists, who now consider themselves “natives” and hate the new tourists have forgotten that your island is a giant mango patch in the middle of the Caribbean. No tourists, no economy. Good luck!

      We need to worry about getting Mac’s sentence back to court. THAT is the shocking part. We have told all women beaters that it’s okay.

    As a parent, I just can’t wrap my head around how her parents allowed her to travel out of the country in a Pandemic, and to not even check the country she is visiting. What if once she arrived she would be required to stay until a flight is available? Would you not ask, where are you going to be staying? are you allowed to do your 14-day quarantine? Do you have money for food deliveries or groceries? No concern then but they are concerned now when she is in jail. I think I know where her attitude comes from

    She was caught and is sorry. Well of course she is sorry , she got caught, i would say that too.

      You islanders best stay in your own country the fact that you would go ahead and do this to an American but not do this to anyone else says that you’re biased against Americans therefore your no longer welcome In the United States You’re actions have damaged your reputation of coming to the United States people of the US will not give you a warm welcome this is our country stay out

      CNS: You are uninformed and being wound up by lies. Skylar was not punished because she is an American but because she knowingly broke Cayman Islands law, in exactly the same way as any other nationality would have been. No prejudice was involved. Notice that her Caymanian boyfriend received the same sentence. The people of the Cayman Islands would expect to be arrested and charged if they broke the law in the US. Upholding law and order is always an election issue in the US so I don’t believe law abiding Americans will penalize Caymanians for upholding ours.

    The BIG question here is how and why and by whom was she granted permission to travel here in the first place. At first view it would appear that she does not meet any of the qualifications for admission.

    Someone knows the answers. Someone must tell the public the whole story!

    It’s called accountability.

    • Anonymous says:

      That’s not the “BIG question” here at all!! It certainly is an interesting side issue. But let us not lose sight of the very clear focus of attention. Two people who, by their own admission, were aware of the law, decided to deliberately break that law, merely so that they could enjoy a social outing. They are not at all sorry for what they did or they would not have chosen to do it in the first place. They are only sorry that they got caught and do not like the consequences! They were utterly selfish in their pre-meditated act and were willing to place the health of general public at risk because they only care about themselves. The law makes provision for a much more severe penalty but they are already getting off very lightly!

      As for the Georgia politicians, they really only care about re-election. So this is just hollow posturing on their part.

      The Government of the Cayman Islands must stand firm on this issue and not contemplate crumbling any further. The reduction in sentence that has already been made is too lenient and if CIG allows it to be reduced still further then they will be a laughing stock and will lose more credibility.

      These particular laws were put in place to safeguard the population of the Cayman Islands from a very real, very serious and current health threat. They are not unreasonable, nor are the associated punishments Draconian. But the law is useless and toothless if the local enforcement authorities are not willing to uphold the appropriate sentences.

      The bottom line should be, if you choose to visit the Cayman Islands and elect to disregard the laws, then you can expect for there to be consequences. You may not like the consequences, after all they are intended to be a punishment for people that do not respect the law!!

      Great post. Add to that the fact she had to apply to travel here and confirm she understood the rules regarding quarantine. Then at the airport she had to sign a declaration that she agreed to quarantine and understood the rules.

      Then she absolutely said f*ck you Cayman I am an American millennial and being privileged the rules don’t apply to me. Guess what Karen you got what you deserved!

        It is very sad that you say “only Americans are so selfish.” Not all Americans are selfish, not all Caymanians are uneducated, not all Jamacians are criminals, etc… She knowing broke the law, the Canadian couple also knowing broke the law, multiple times, why did they not not get a prison sentence?

        • Betsy Drummond says:

          The Canadian couple showed us the disregard that we would likely continue to experience if there weren’t proper teeth in the law. A simple fine isn’t an effective disincentive to many non resident travellers to Cayman. The objective of the penalty isnt to collect revenue – rather to incentivise the right behaviour to prevent a public health crisis.

        • Anonymous says:

          They didn’t get prison time because the law was changed between the Canadian couple’s trial and hers. Because people like the Canadian couple and a few others were breaking quarantine the government made the penalties harsher.

      The vast majority of Americans believe she was in the wrong and should do her jail time.

    Our airport is, and has been, closed to recreational travelers since March. That was chronologically before this couple purports to have begun dating. Mack and Ramgeet, like everyone else, would each have been delivered the rules and conditions, along with traveler and host performance contracts with Travel Time/CIG which they would have needed to have countersigned to acquire tickets and/or “apply for repatriation” to Cayman. They consciously and willingly conspired to violate those contracts. How many times did they recreationally violate the limited permissible conditions/costs of travel since the beginning of 2020 in order to carry out this romance? How did she successfully “repatriate” as a non-resident girlfriend, and with a return itinerary of just two weeks stay? These last two questions are on Travel Time/Cayman Airways, and it points to political meddling and/or gatekeeper incompetence.

    US, maybe if you had put in place more stringent fines and rules, including putting offenders in jail, you would not be in the ‘shit hole’ predictment you’re finding yourself in.

    Remember the good ole rule “While in Rome, do as the Romans do.”

    Furthermore, mind your “Funky Business.”

    Those senators need to stay the hell out of Cayman Justice system and mind their own business – why do they not ask for leniency for all those people of color that are locked up in the US-

    Please stay out of this and mind your own business- She came to Cayman broke the law and now suffering the consequences.. let her do her time

    Let that be anyone in the US of a different flavor ice cream “admitted guilt, regretted her actions and paid what they said was a substantial fine, and had been incarcerated for over a week” See how lenient the courts are with them.

    They need to STFU and let princess pay her debt to our society.

    Meanwhile, grocery prices are ridiculous, MLAs beat up women and get away with it, kids are murdering each other, our tourism industry is in the toilet, we have a spate of muggings, and our ‘leaders’ couldn’t run a p1$$up in a brewery. 2 kids broke the law and are rightly paying for it. USA, fix your own country first yeah?

      Alladat is also going on in the US of A!! And so much more. No comparison whatsoever so don’t ever start with that. I feel a little bad for her too but she broke the law. I wish she hadn’t but she did. With this Covid thing and how deadly it is, please do not expect us to turn a blind eye. She is smart, apparently a premed scholar, so she clearly understood the risk she was taking. It is all on her.

    One can safely assume that all Republican senators representing Georgia are always wrong about everything.

      They broke the law. They should be punished like anyone else. If a Caymanian went to the USA and broke the law they would be punished. Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.

      Ironic also, in that had everyone in Ms. Mack’s circle of influence just let her serve her sentence, the Prison Director may have elected to grant her early release; after all this kerfuffle and implied threats directed toward the Cayman Islands, I tend to doubt it will happen.

      Egads! Two Senators!

      Deport her with no option of ever returning. Enough.

      Understand your sentiment. I think Ms. Mack was thoughtless and extremely cavalier with our hard-won safety, however, she appears to be pretty far from stupid.

      As said before, she made a very bad judgement error. She is paying for that and it will change her life, hopefully in a favourable manner. I’ve made several bad calls, two of them resulting in incarceration. I hope at my old age I’m finishing with bad calls, but I’m human and thus tend to doubt it.

      She didn’t infect us as a result of her actions, so all that remains is that she serve her sentence. I wish her well.
