The latest news from Miami is a pending Federal criminal investigation of former Venezuelan President NICOLAS MADURO MOROS, who is already in custody in the existing SDNY case. Media reports state that the Miami investigation, which was initiated after Maduro arrived in New York earlier this year, concerns financial crime, and involves significant money laundering in the United States. A senior Miami prosecutor is said to be supervising the case. A number of major Venezuelan laundrymen have already gone through the criminal justice system in SDFL, and they could supply first-hand knowledge or evidence against Maduro, as Cooperating individuals seeking a sentence reduction.

ALEX SAAB MORAN, himself in custody in Miami's Federal Detention Center, which houses pretrial inmates, and probably looking at a life sentence, will most certainly be a principal witness against the former president of Venezuela in this new, as yet unfiled, case against the dictator, but the mystery is who else will be named in that future indictment. Saab transited a major portion of the narcotics profits that he cleaned for Maduro's criminal organization through financial institutions in Antigua and Barbuda, where he had diplomatic status as Economic Envoy, which was granted by Prime Minister GASTON BROWNE, and where he enjoyed special status. Will any Antiguan government official banker, or attorney be named in the new Miami financial crime case? We cannot say, but we will be watching.
