U.S. Prosecutor on Cuban Five Case Is an Anti-Cuba Activist

U.S. Prosecutor Caroline Heck-Miller, who has denied Cuban antiterrorist fighter Rene Gonzalez the right to return to Cuba, is the widow of former Army intelligence officer Gene Miller, and boasts an anticommunist and anti-Cuba background, Granma newspaper reported Friday.

According to the editorial, Gene Miller, a fierce anticommunist, served as an Army counterintelligence officer during the Korean War, was recruited by the Miami Herald as an investigative reporter and gave name to the CIA Peter Pan Operation that dragged more than 14,000 Cuban children away from their home and their parents.

Carolina Heck’s link with Miller explains in great deal her behavior apparently obsessive against Rene and the other four Cuban antiterrorist fighters who have been imprisoned for 13 years in the U.S., wrote Jean-Guy Allard, the author of the article.

This was the same Prosecutor who insisted on taking the case of the Cuban Five to court, refused to lead the trial outside of Miami and played a key part in the long totally outlaw sentences applied against the Cubans.

As it weren’t enough –reads the article– this woman uses her profession to fulfill Intelligence orders, with the zeal of an agent, and was the one who, despite requests to do so from the Department of Homeland Security, decided not to press criminal charges in August 2005 against Luis Posada Carriles, a confessed terrorist who has repeatedly stated that he feels no regrets for his crimes.

Heck-Miller’s lack of ethics, impartiality and the absence of rigor required in her profession, as well as her obsession with applying unfair and inhumane punishments against the Cuban Five are characteristics of an anti-Cuba activist and correspond with the CIA’s interest, Jean-Guy Allard denounced.

Thus the federal prosecutor is obsessed with the idea of kidnapping Rene Gonzalez in the biggest terrorist sanctuary of the world, while his family claims for his return to Cuba on October 7, the day he is expected to be freed.
