It's the most high profile, most enduring case of money laundering ever to come to public attention - and finally, the Coye's of Moneygram fame are going to trial.
Forty-six witnesses are scheduled to be called in the trial, which starts on Monday September 20th.
A jury of 7 women and 2 men were empanelled today in the court of Justice Adolph Lucas.
And while the brand-name has been Moneygram - the business was Meoney Exchange International Limited. That company is the defendant along with 7 other defendants including Michael Coye, his wife, Marlene, his children Jude and Melonie, Melonie's husband James Gerou and office staffers Atlee Matute and Dietrick Kingston.
The allegation is that they laundered 1.557 million Belzie dollars between Ocotber 9, 2007 and December 31st. 2008.
It is the biggest case the Financial Intelligence Unit has ever pursued and that agency is represented by three attorneys, Antonette Moore, Tricia Pitts Anderson and Mikhail Arguelles.
The Coye group is represented by Dickie Bradley and Arthur Saldivar.
