PR-Anon here
This is a developing story.
This morning the Puerto Rico FBI arrested the following 3 people:
-
The managing partner of global accounting firm BDO in Puerto Rico, Fernando Scherrer
-
The ex-secretary of PR Health and Human Services (ASES in Spanish), Angela Avila
-
The ex-secretary of PR Dept of Education, Julia Keleher
For those who do not know BDO is a very large accounting firm; it can be considered a global powerhouse in accounting and is usually well insulated with their army of lawyers. For the managing partner to be arrested the FBI has to have had pretty damning evidence. Here is a link to his bio on BDO http://www.bdopr.com/en-gb/our-people/fernando-scherrer
Angela Avila had quit her position at ASES a short 3 weeks ago when the first political booms happened here in PR, but that obviously did not help her. The PR HHS handles the PR version of Medicaid and that system seems to always have problems and run out of money, surprise, surprise. This is very interesting timing as just yesterday Congress had been discussing giving PR $1.2 billion for Medicaid.
Julia Keleher ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_Keleher ) was the PR department of Education from January 2, 2017 to April 1, 2019. She quit on April fool's day, interesting. She was arrested this morning in Washington DC. The Dept of Education is the PR Dept with the largest budget, at around $1.6 billion dollars, yet the condition of most schools in PR are worse than in many inner cities; low salaries for teachers, old text books, no computers in most schools, some classrooms are still destroyed from Hurricane Maria, etc.
Please take a look at her Wikipedia bio as she has been involved in many activities with children in PR, DC, Pennsylvania and California. There is something fishy about this lady. No pun intended.
So far I have only found Spanish articles on the arrests. Will Edit and Update as things progress here.

EDIT 1: The FBI just went into the PR Treasury Dept and took possession of many computers including those used by the recently fired PR Treasury Secretary, Raul Maldonado.
BTW, the two ladies that were arrested this morning, Keleher and Avila, actually managed close to 50% of the total budget of the Government of PR as Education and ASES are the two departments with the largest budgets.
EDIT 2: The governor of PR is currently on vacation in Europe. Yesterday several internal text messages between people in his administration, on the app Telegram, were leaked in which he and his people discussed him going on a "made-up vacation" and leaving the PR Secretary of Justice as the interim governor as a "taunt" against the president of the PR Senate.
In these texts they also ridicule and speak quite rudely about Jennifer Gonzalez, the representative (commissioner resident) of PR in Congress. These attacks began when she attended Mike Pence's event in Miami for Hispanics for Trump. She has publicly began to express support for Donald Trump and contradicting many of the falsehoods the PR governor and the mayor of San Juan have been saying about Trump regarding PR.
EDIT 3: Press conference will be held by the FBI PR today at 11am
Edit 4: FBI press conference in progress. We are looking at Fraud, embezzlement, Wire fraud, Money laundering and other charges to several of the pople.

EDIT 8: The main Spanish-language Newspaper in PR decided to run the article on the arrests in English as it seems that there is a great demand for it. Here it is:

Thanks for this. Sometimes I wonder if any of this PR corruption would have been unearthed had the disaster not happened. It’s been covered up for so long and obviously protected by its govt and the US cabal.

Indeed. This is exactly what many of us here in PR think. Hurricanes Irma and Maria completely exposed, for all to see, the level of corruption that existed here. Most of us, clear thinkers, are very happy with how it was all exposed, but there is still a lot more to come.

Please arrest that fucking SJW mayor that withheld emergency supplies from her own people.

That will happen, but our impression is that she is a very high level DS/Cabal operative and she will fall, but not just yet.

I would love to see someone take a hard look at the mass corruption on the Indian Reservations. Just like PR, education is also at the top of their many requests for funds from Congress. Yet I can tell you from personal experience that every school I was associated with on the Navajo and Hopi Indian Reservations was corrupt beyond the imagination of any normie. All, and I mean all, of the money that taxpayers threw at desperately needed special needs programs to help students went directly into the private bank accounts of top administrators and directors. Don't want to deflect away from the concerns in PR but if someone would take a broader view in Congress and make accountable all of those thieves, from PR to Cali, who are robbing our children of the education they deserve and lining their own pockets; then I'm sure there would be many who would thank you.

I totally agree. The fact that it has started in PR you can rest assure that it's going to spread all over. Remember that William Barr and Trump have put special interest in the Native American communities in Alaska so I'm sure the Navajo, Hopi and other are in their line of sight.

They did? Oh geez I will have to go re-read CNN'S website. I seem to have missed their coverage on that. hmmmm.

WOW! This is first I have heard of this today and I read all the online news before coming here. Thank you for giving so much information. Good Job, Patriot. We need more good information sharing. WWG1WGA

Anything going on with Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz of San Juan, Puerto Rico?

Not as of yet, but on October 16th 2018, the FBI raided the San Juan City Hall and took over several floors for over 6 hours. We expect something to be brought to light soon.

With around 10% of the population living there, San Juan is the largest Municipality of PR and is by far the one with the largest GDP on the island.
