The open secret in Trinidad is that Pa-trick wants to remove gambling and casinos, because his son Brian is a gambling addict. It seems that he is owing a lot of money to casinos, and not able to pay.
Which might be why a $9M was given to him, because instead of hearing of the basketball league that he was to start, I hear two pharmacies were opened. The latter might be to take advantage of the fat and free CDAP contracts floating about.
But the gambling is an addiction, and apparently threats are being made for non-payment, so Pa-trick decides to do eliminate the entire industry as punishment/avoidance of the problem and to safeguard his son.
The closest he has come to admitting the problem is to say that he knows a victim is 'the son of a government minister'.
