Ex-FBI agent says he 'kidnapped,' deported Bahamian fugitives http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2011/03/31/111311/ex-fbi-agent-says-he-kidnapped.html?amp&amp 

In secretly recorded conversations, a former FBI agent said he routinely arrested Bahamian criminal defendants in South Florida and unlawfully sent them back to their homeland on commercial airline flights without any formal review of their cases in U.S. courts. The shocking admissions by retired FBI Agent Gerard “Jerry” Forrester, the FBI’s Miami liaison officer in the Caribbean in the 1990s, surfaced this week as part of an unrelated civil court battle in the Bahamas between New York hedge fund billionaire, Louis Bacon, and Canadian fashion mogul, Peter Nygard, who own estates in exclusive Lyford Cay.

According to an affidavit of the audio recordings, Forrester said a Bahamian murder suspect was arrested in Miami, held briefly in jail, placed on a plane and later killed in police custody in The Bahamas. He said the defendant’s death was brought to the attention of then-U.S. Attorney Janet Reno. 

“I kidnapped him back to Nassau,” Forrester said while being recorded last year by former Scotland Yard detective Alick Morrison, who was working as a private investigator for Nygard. “They had him for about 10 hours and the guy wound up dead.”Forrester, a private investigator now working with a former Bahamian cop who was cleared in the 1998 killing of the defendant in police custody, downplayed his statements on the tapes: “Yes, I did say it. Was it true? No. Why did I embellish? Because I brag,” he said with a chuckle.
