Anti-Castro Group Tied to Hotel Bugging Probe
Five men were arrested on burglary charges for allegedly attempting to place listening devices in party offices of a Miami area building during May 26 to 29. Police tied the operation to an anti-Castro exile group based in Miami called Amoretas, with four suspects questioned. Some suspects are Democrats, and one is linked to Nelson's reelection campaign security. The case links to a broader political intrigue involving the Nixon reelection committee and a Washington PR figure.

The custom brace, funded by the inmates at under $100, could have cost about $1,500 commercially. Kearey’s father praised the effort and the staff approved the project.
