James Crosby

James Crosby led the Mary Carter Paint Company's transformation into Resorts International (1968) and its Paradise Island casino venture, and stood up Intertel in 1970 as the company's private intelligence and security arm, framed as keeping organized crime out of the Bahamas operation [S1]. His death in 1986 opened the door to the Donald Trump and then Merv Griffin ownership eras [S1]. See Offshore Finance Network (UAP Lore Audit).
