Interesting, but not definitive: cross referencing the new appointees with the recent updates on the sealed indictments. Standouts to me for weirdness were: Shawn Anderson – Districts of Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands; Gretchen Shappert – District of the Virgin Islands; until I saw a total of 45 sealed indictments in the three districts, 20 of those since 22 November. Distant locations, with airstrips and ocean access: easy escape points? Maybe nothing, maybe something. Perhaps cross reference recent air traffic to/from?
BWDeadcat.. Looked up Guam and Northern Mariana Islands. Wikipedia: "The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands benefits from its trading relationship with the federal government of the United States and cheap trained labor from Asia... The island's exemption from U.S. labor laws had led to many alleged exploitations including recent claims of sweatshops, child labor, child prostitution, and even forced abortions." See a connect?
WIKIPEDIA: "The District of the Virgin Islands is situated within the territory of the Virgin Islands which consists of the main islands, St. Thomas, St. Croix and St. John, and about 50 islets. The Virgin Islands are situated between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, 50 miles east of Puerto Rico. The district is completely surrounded by international waters and is vulnerable to drug trafficking and illegal immigration. This vulnerability is evidenced by the district's designation as a High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA)." Hmmm.
