Judge OKs Noriega extradition to France
Ay, carumba!MIAMI - Former Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega can be extradited to France once he completes his U.S. prison sentence for a 1992 drug trafficking conviction, a federal judge ruled Tuesday. Noriega, 72, is due to be released from a Miami prison on Sept. 9. He only did 15 years? He wants U.S. officials to send him back to his home country, but France wants him to face charges of laundering about $3.15 million in drug profits through transactions that included buying luxurious apartments in Paris. Lucky you, Manny. A free trip to France. I wonder if they'll play Van Halen really really loud outside your cell? Over and over and over again... Posted by: tu3031 2007-08-28 |
