Border & Maritime Security: U.S. Air and Marine Operations helped interdict a smuggling attempt off western Puerto Rico, leading to 64 migrants being processed for removal. Local Accountability: St. Croix residents are demanding transparency after a reported DOJ compromise in the 2020 Melvin Evans Highway murder case left a co-defendant dismissed of major charges. Travel & Safety: CBP reminded small-boat operators that arrival reporting is required when traveling between Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, with penalties already issued. Regional Spotlight: BVI’s Guy Malone was elected chairman of the Organization of Caribbean Utility Regulators.
