In Miami Little Havana marked Easter with prayers for Elian, as many residents face life without him after federal agents whisked him to Washington. Protests remained tense with police arrests and fires, while some neighbors voiced support for reunification with his father.
Washington profile of Janet Reno, the Clinton era attorney general, recounts her public deliberations during the Waco siege in 1993 and the Elian Gonzalez raid in 2000. It notes bipartisan anger and praise, Reno's blunt, public style, and the political pressure she faced from Republicans and Democrats alike.
In Cardenas, a 96,000-strong town two hours from Havana, poverty, aging colonial facades, and crowded streets meet a modern storefront life with dollar shops and Che Guevara imagery. The Elian custody dispute highlights political divides as residents describe daily struggles and guarded hopes for the boy's future.
GOP leaders condemn force used to seize Elian from the Miami relatives in a high profile raid at a private home. Supporters cite court actions and legal grounds while Castro calls it a day of glory for Cuba. Elian is shown with his father at Andrews Air Force Base amid ongoing custody and political tensions.
