Posada was a former CIA contractor and explosives expert. What ever he did, the U.S. government must have had a hand in it too.
Panamas expresident should have had her U.S. visa pulled after she left office, but it didnt happen that way. I believe there was an agreement struck that if she pardoned Posada and the other three, the other three are Cuban-Americans, she could, in exchange, keep her U.S. visa. (She has property in the U.S.)
There are two others who remain in jail. They are both Panamanians.
Go figure.
I thought he was a catcher for the Oakland Athletics.
