Rubio Introduces Senate Resolution Opposing Release Of Narco-Terrorist "Simón Trinidad"

Press Release

U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) introduced a resolution opposing the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia's (FARC-EP) requested release from U.S. custody of Colombian narco-terrorist "Simón Trinidad", recognizing that such a release would embolden terrorist groups worldwide and undermine the U.S. judicial system. The resolution also extends sympathies to all families who have lost loved ones at the hands of the FARC-EP, including dozens killed this year.

"The Obama Administration has shown time and time again that it cannot be trusted when it comes to prisoner releases, especially when the president uses them as tools of diplomacy," Rubio said. "The Senate must take a stand to preserve the integrity of the U.S. judicial system and make clear to this administration that it should reject any request to release convicted narco-terrorists like Simón Trinidad from U.S. custody."
