- A former US Green Beret who organized a failed cross-border raid of Venezuelan army deserters in 2020 to remove President Nicolás Maduro has been arrested in New York on federal arms smuggling charges.
- A federal indictment unsealed this week in Tampa, Florida, accuses Jordan Goudreau and a Venezuelan partner, Yacsy Alvarez, of violating US arms control laws by assembling and sending AR-styled weapons, ammunition, silencers, night vision goggles, and other defense equipment to Colombia, which required a US export license.
- Despite setbacks, the coup plotters proceeded in a comical and tragic way, widely ridiculed as the “Bay of Piglets,” referencing the 1961 Cuban fiasco. The group was easily mopped up by Venezuela’s security forces, which had already infiltrated the group.
- The indictment documented the ill-fated plot by Goudreau, citing text messages between the defendants about their efforts to purchase military-related equipment and export it to Colombia, as well as tracing a web of money transfers, chartered flights, and large-scale purchases.
