The showdown over a federal law that keeps boaters out of Cuban waters heads
into a Key West courtroom later this morning.
Ramon Saul Sanchez, Alberto Perez, and Pablo Rodriguez are all accused of
violating that law by sailing into Cuban waters during a flotilla in July 2001.
The three sailed into Cuban waters to mark the anniversary of Cuba's sinking
of a tugboat filled with refugees back in 1994.
If convicted, the men could face 10 years behind bars. |
