Noriega Surrenders as Panama Faces Reconstruction Costs
The article notes a $4.6 million bribe case, U.S. troop withdrawals to 26,000, and no 1991 aid for Panama reconstruction. It cites estimates of over $2 billion in losses from bombing, looting, sanctions, and long-term damage, with potential international funds possible.

Entrapment claim in Wisconsin drug trial opens case
Mark Lambrecht, 23, of Pewaukee, faces cocaine selling charges after an undercover Illinois officer posed as a dealer. His attorney, Gerald Beger, argued the case shows a classical entrapment scheme by the Blackhawk Area Drug Task Force in 1988, claiming Lambrecht was naive and simply aiding a friend. The defense seeks to portray Lambrecht as caught in a web of deceit with a confidential source whose charges were dropped in exchange for cooperation. The trial continued with the jury expected to hear further testimony through Monday.
