Santo Domingo.- Dominican authorities early Thursday extradited Oscar Ezequiel Rodriguez Cruz to Massachusetts where he faces drug trafficking charges, said Antinarcotics Agency (DNCD) spokesman Roberto Lebrón.

Rodriguez was escorted from the DNCD compound at 12:15am to the Las Americas Airport, and placed aboard a JetBlue flight which took off at 2pm.

DNCD and U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents took Rodriguez from Najayo Prison’s cellblock for extraditables to the DNCD at 10 pm Wednesday, just hours after Presidential Decree 186-12 was issued on a ruling by the Supreme Court.

The accused has been linked to opposition PRD presidential candidate Hipolito Mejia through the movement “Nuevo Renacer con Papa” and to the ruling PLD party’s Danilo Medina, with an alleged RD$500,000 check written as a campaign donation.

Is that a "YES" or a "NO" ?

Maybe it's a "Shhhh, don't bring it up , they forgot about it" " Lets say it was Nilo"

Th article is ambiguous as to whether the cheque went to the PLD or the PRD. I would have thought both parties receive sufficient campaign funding from the taxpayer.

I have spoken to some PRD supporters. It has nothing to do with choosing the best president to lead the country, and everything to do with being seen to support the party most likely to win, in return for favors if they do. Hence being seen as the winning party is so important, in the phony polls.

The head honchos belong in the stink tank more than the middlemen such as this Rodriguez guy.

WHY DOES THE US NOT FILE TO EXTRADITE THE BIG BOSSES???

Walter, to get an extradition order, they need to file an actual criminal charges. You may think that the US will do some political favor or manipulation with false charges but I see no recent evidence of that.

I'm sure the big busts of the past 2 years would have yielded sufficient info to warrant a true bill of indictment from a Grand Jury.

For example, Quirino must have filled a few notebooks just about the Hippo.

They extradite the truck drivers, but not the owner of the truck.
