MIAMI - Former dictator Manuel Antonio Noriega hopes to immediately board a plane for Panama when he is released from prison on Sept. 9, and he plans to fight his conviction back home in the slayings of two political opponents, his attorney said.
I remember when the US went to Panama to remove Noriega. It’s one of the first military operations that I remember. At that time, I didn’t realize that he would one day be released. I wonder if he had to reimburse us for the cost of apprehending him… not likely.
