One reason the offshore economy persists is its seeming distance from the lives of real people. A mission of the @ICIJorg#PandoraPapers reporting team was to bridge that gap. Here are a few of the dozens of people we interviewed. ⬇️
Pietro Mancini: After discovering cancer-causing sludge in his Italian factory, he was fired. The company & senior execs were accused of cover-up. @shirafu reports on how one of those execs moved assets, including shares, to offshore haven. icij.org/investigations…
Carlos Lomena: evicted during the pandemic from a South Florida apartment by a Wall Street landlord secretly backed by trusts holding money for a disgraced Catholic order, @spencerwoodman reports. icij.org/investigations…
Mark Ryan: Won a multi-million judgment against his convicted abuser, but never collected. @WillFitzgibbon@debbiecenziper report that his alleged abuser paid $500 to set up a trust in a notorious tax haven. icij.org/investigations…
Christopher Pallanck: child support for his children is locked in a South Dakota trust. icij.org/investigations…
