This is what many of has said over the years. The tax agencies can do a good job to begin with and have the other agencies dig into the bank accounts and other assets of these over-night rich people. I am not so sure why it took so long for the security forces to take a stand.

Many big businesses are going to be get caught in this effort; if they are smart they will start cooperate the police. If left unstopped this gun/drugs trade is going to cause civil war in Jamaica.
