Cilia Flores Returns to Court in NY to Request House Arrest
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
Cilia Flores, the wife of captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, is set to appear in a New York court on Thursday. Her lawyers will request that she be moved from jail to house arrest due to her heart problems. Both Maduro and Flores have been incarcerated since January after being captured in a U.S. raid. They face life sentences for allegedly conspiring to smuggle cocaine into the U.S. Flores' attorneys argue that she suffers from medical issues that cannot be adequately treated in prison, and they claim she poses no flight risk. The prosecution opposes her release, citing a potential danger to the public.
