45. So, are we pretending that he's not being paid to keep him?

Stop the payments, he gets out. Pay him to give him back - we get him back. El Presidente doesn't do anything for free, but will do anything for money.

On the other hand, if he's already dead or too damaged to avoid an international incident, that might be a motive for keeping him for free. I prefer to think El Presidente is being well paid to keep him.

When is the press going to follow the money?
