“…Top CIA Spy Accused of Being a Mafia Hitman..”

“…Enrique “Ricky” Prado’s resume reads like the ultimate CIA officer:-

- veteran of the Central American wars – running the CIA’s operations in Korea – a top spy in America’s espionage programs against China – and deputy to counter-terrorist chief Cofer Black — and then a stint at Blackwater.

But he’s also alleged to have started out a career as a hitman for a notorious Miami mobster – and kept working for the mob even after joining the CIA.

Finally, he went on to serve as the head of the CIA’s secret assassination squad against Al-Qaida.

That’s according to journalist Evan Wright’s blockbuster story How to Get Away With Murder in America, distributed by Byliner.

In it, Wright — who authored Generation Kill, the seminal story of the Iraq invasion — compiles lengthy, years-long investigations by state and federal police into a sector of Miami’s criminal underworld that ended nowhere – were sidelined by higher-ups – or cut short by light sentences.

It tracks the history of Prado’s alleged Miami patron and notorious cocaine trafficker, Alberto San Pedro -

- and suspicions that Prado moved a secret death squad from the CIA to Blackwater…”
