Several U.S. cases have already implicated high-level Cubans in trafficking. In February 1988, for instance, 17 people were indicted in Miami on charges of smuggling drugs from South America, some of it through Cuba, into South Florida. Last March, when Reinaldo Ruiz, a Cuban-born U.S. citizen, and his son Ruben pleaded guilty, Dexter Lehtinen, the U.S. Attorney in Miami, released a videotape on which Ruben stated that the Ruiz operation had secured cooperation from Cuban officers to use military runways as transit points. Of Cuba's compensation, Ruben said, "The money went into Fidel's drawer" -- a charge...
...Reinaldo Povod's first full-length play, Cuba and His Teddy Bear, included a street-poet character who was widely seen as a tribute to Miguel Pinero. And like Pinero's.

When Joseph Papp, the nation's leading impresario of serious drama, decided to produce Cuba and His Teddy Bear at New York City's Public Theater, stage veterans gaped at the good fortune of Playwright Reinaldo Povod, 26. A product of Manhattan's turbulent Lower East Side, Povod had never before even written a full-length play. Envy turned to astonishment when Papp announced the show would star Oscar Winner Robert De Niro in his first stage effort since 1970's One Night Stands of a Noisy Passenger. The seven-week off-Broadway run sold out in three hours. After...
...widow of General Reinaldo Pérez-Vega. My husband's throat was not slashed as you say. He was tortured for hours until he died, an act in which Astorga was an active participant. She is a murderess. Her nomination as the ambassador from Nicaragua is evidence of the type of leaders that form the Communist Sandinista government...
