What's Going To Happen To Luis Posada Carriles?

He's the CIA-funded, anti-Castro terrorist, who blew up Cuban Flight 455 that we refuse to extradite. He currently resides in Miami where he's folk hero in the Cuban-American community.

He's like 86 or 87 years old. He'll die in Miami of old age.
What would you like to see happen to him? I don't support anything he did or was accused of doing.

From what I've read he was accused but never found to be guilty (perhaps not even put on trial). Of course, he worked for the CIA for quite some time so I would imagine that they will never allow him to be put on trial. He has plenty of secrets I am sure. The accepted fact that the U.S. bankrolled him for many years is pretty bad.

Was this information gathered as the result of torture. If so it is worthless.
Among the documents posted today are four sworn affidavits by police officials in Trinidad and Tobago, who were the first to interrogate the two Venezuelans--Hernan Ricardo Lozano and Freddy Lugo--who were arrested for placing the bomb on flight 455. (Their statements were turned over as evidence to a special investigative commission in Barbados after the crime.) Information derived from the interrogations suggested that the first call the bombers placed after the attack was to the office of Luis Posada's security company ICI, which employed Ricardo. Ricardo claimed to have been a CIA agent (but later retracted that claim). He said that he had been paid $16,000 to sabotage the plane and that Lugo was paid $8,000.

Well, we've extradited former, low-level German prison guards in their 80's and 90's, who have a lot less blood on their hands than Carriles. I generally support some type of truth and reconciliation in situations like these. Do you remember when Congressman John Lewis met with the Klansman who was responsible of caving his head in when he was a young man?

See my previous post. If he spills the beans on other things that he was involved with then the CIA will look bad. No way this will happen.
