...hyperwealthy lite and the abject poor. Panama and its reformist President, Martn Torrijos, may have a good business plan for the future, but the nation's near 40% poverty rate is a legacy of decades of banana-republic rule and dismal social spending. Hilda declined to speak to TIME on the record because the case is still pending, but her granddaughter Madelaine Urrutia, who sits on the board of a children's charity, insists, "We are a family with a social conscience."
