They get him.
They bring him to Miami.
They bring him to Florida.
He stands trial.
It's like a BS trial.
He goes to prison here in Florida for, I think, 11 years or something like that.
And then he gets extradited to France because he- He can't go back to Panama.
They don't want him back yet.
But France want him because he had this money laundering scheme in France.
He owned a bunch of property.
And he really pissed off the French government.
No, no, no.
They hated him.
They put him in, I forget the name of the prison in Paris, but they put him in like a shithole prison, like a really terrible prison.
And he was there, I forget how long he was there for, but in 2011, the Panamanian government was basically like, all right, we want him back.
So he comes back to Panama and he dies in prison in Panama in 2017.
yeah so he i mean he spends like the last what like 20 years of his life or or so in behind bars like in prison but um but yeah in 1989 he basically was a subject of like the u.s invasion of panama and it the it was titled operation just cause sounds nice yeah reasonable yeah it makes it sound reasonable
It makes it sound... Yeah, just like... I think it's kind of a funny title because obviously HW meant for it to mean it's a just cause.
But then the way I see it, it's like, oh, why are you invading Panama?
Just cause.
