Push for Freedom for Cuban “Anti-Terrorists”

Rene Gonzalez, one of a group called the “Cuban 5,” spoke today from Cuba at a news conference in Washington D.C. by phone for the first time. Gonzalez said that while the case involving himself and four other Cubans was well known in much of the world, “the American people, who were supposed to be the victims of our crimes” remained largely unaware of the case. The men were convicted of a series of crimes including conspiracy to commit espionage and conspiracy to commit murder.

“We still have four men in prison” said Gonzalez “doing long sentences for crimes they didn’t commit. … It is a shame to the U.S. and to the legal system.”
