Panama, 1971 to 2026. A canal republic sold the world a flag, an anonymous company and a quiet bank account, and crime became one of its best customers. In 1971 White House staff wrote of information that Panama's rulers were deeply involved in narcotics; the officer they named as its anti-drug coordinator became the general convicted in Miami. A newspaper company was bought, a court found, with contractors' money, and the president convicted for it left for asylum in Colombia without serving a day of that sentence. The law firm whose files became the Panama Papers saw its trial at home end in acquittals. Covers Manuel Antonio Noriega and the Panama Defense Forces, Ricardo Martinelli and Editora Panamá América, and Jürgen Mossack, Ramón Fonseca and Mossack Fonseca.
