...revolver and shot Michael Lawrence Geller three times in the chest. Bush then allegedly threatened Melvin Dlugash, who Bush feared would be a witness unless he, too, were involved in the crime. So Dlugash fired five shots into Geller's head from his own .25-cal. pistol. Bush drew five to ten years after pleading guilty to manslaughter, but Dlugash went to trial and got up to life.

...earthy soldier-dictator who still flaunts his revolutionary past by wearing olive-green fatigues and a pistol at his side. The other is a polished, quick-witted intellectual, an urbane man of the book rather than the gun.
