Miami judge
authorizes trip to Cuba for
René González
 On
the afternoon of March 19, 2012, it was announced
that South Florida District Court Judge Joan Lenard,
who has overseen since its inception the case of the
Cuban Five, unjustly imprisoned in the United States,
approved a motion submitted by the lawyer
representing René González requesting that the judge
grant René permission to travel to Cuba for two
weeks in order to see his brother, Roberto González,
who is gravely ill
The judge, however, indicated that
the trip is subject to several conditions.
Essentially, René must obtain the necessary
clearances and licenses required by the U.S.
government to travel to Cuba; he must submit a
detailed itinerary of the trip including flight
numbers, routing, location and contact information
in Cuba. Additionally he must report telephonically
to his probation officer. Lastly, the judge’s order
made clear that the conditions of his supervised
release have not changed and he must return to the
United States within two weeks from the date of his
departure.
