In episode 5 of NPR's White Lies, we look at the legal battle against the indefinite detention of the Cuban migrants–why Rudy Giuliani argued for imprisoning them, and how one judge fought for fair treatment.
How Rudy Giuliani fought to hold Cubans indefinitely at the Atlanta Penitentiary : White Lies
On May 18, 1980, a man named Genaro Soroa-Gonzalez arrived in Key West from the port of Mariel. With no family waiting to sponsor him, he was sent by plane to a resettlement camp at an army base. There he was interviewed by the INS and, a few days later, he boarded another plane, this one bound for the federal prison in Atlanta.
