Extra: The Case Against Nicolás Maduro

Extra: The Case Against Nicolás Maduro

Author: FOX News Radio March 30, 2026 Duration: 22:31
A military operation has led to a legal battle for the ages. The deposed leader of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, appeared in a New York court this week facing federal charges after he and his wife were captured by American authorities in January. The charges include narco-terrorism, drug trafficking, and conspiracy. Earlier this week, FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony spoke with former state and federal prosecutor Jim Trusty about the case against Maduro and when this complicated trial might finally begin. Trusty also explained how these charges compare to those brought against former Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega after he was captured by the U.S. in 1989. We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you’d like to hear the entire conversation. Today on the FOX News Rundown Extra, we share our full interview with Jim Trusty, who breaks down the unique challenges of this historic case. Learn more about your ad choices.
