Former Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores are headed to trial next June on federal drug trafficking charges, after being arrested in a Caracas raid. Both have pleaded not guilty and remain in Brooklyn custody without seeking bail. Their defense plans to challenge the indictment on sovereign immunity grounds, with key motions due in early September and oral arguments set for November 17th — potentially halting the case before trial. U.S. prosecutors allege they conspired to traffic cocaine into the U.S., while Maduro insists he’s innocent and still the constitutional leader of Venezuela. The trial date is already set to accommodate the expected legal hurdles ahead. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
