Well the looming problem that comes with Manuel Noriega is that it is incredibly difficult to build a strong case against him, even more difficult to capture him, and you can forget about a legal capture, because it was going to take force or a covert abduction, and not a lawful arrest. Then, on top of the claims of an unconstitutional arrest, there is also the inherent problem that it will be nearly impossible to find 12 people who are unbiased and have not heard the stories of Manuel Noriega, and have yet to build an opinion about him either way. Lastly, the list of witnesses against Noriega can hardly make a case for being reliable, seeing as they are convicted drug dealers in their own right, and another possible witness, Noriega himself, is someone that nobody wants on the stand. Unfortunately, it seems that even with the capture of Manuel Noriega, the accompanying question of what to do with him presents an even grander
