SHIPS' SEIZURES LINKED, PROSECUTORS SAY
TAMPA - Federal prosecutors acknowledged Monday that last week's
seizure of a Colombian shrimping boat said to be carrying nearly 4
tons of cocaine is linked to a similar seizure last month.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Ruddy told U.S. Magistrate Elizabeth
Jenkins there are ``common co-conspirators'' in the new case, which
involves a ship called the Layneyd, and the trawler seized last month,
the Rebelde.
Both vessels were seized hundreds of miles off the coast of Ecuador
after Coast Guard officials allegedly found cocaine hidden aboard
them. The captains and crews were taken into custody, brought to Tampa
and indicted on federal cocaine charges.
