Excerpts from the Kindle edition, description from Amazon.com. In “How to Get Away with Murder in America,” Evan Wright reveals the story of Enrique “Ricky” Prado, an alleged killer for a major Miami drug trafficker who was recruited into the CIA. Despite a grand jury subpoena and a mountain of evidence unearthed by a federal task force, Prado was promoted into the agency’s highest echelons and charged with implementing some of the country’s most sensitive post-9/11 counterterrorist operations, including the agency’s secret “targeted assassination unit.” All while staying in close touch with his cocaine-trafficking boss and, evidence suggests, taking part in additional killings for him. After Prado retired in 2004 at the rank of SIS-2—the CIA equivalent of a two-star general—he moved to a senior position at Blackwater, the private military contractor, where he continued to run the same, now-outsourced “death squad.” Contrary to government assurances that it was never actually activated, Wright reveals testimony from one of the Blackwater assassins that Prado’s unit was indeed carrying out assigned killings. As a former military intelligence officer told Wright in 2011, “Private contractors are whacking people like crazy over in Afghanistan for the CIA.” - Unfortunately, while this book contains many tantalizing seeds it doesn't provide context for many events. Further muddying the book's account is the fact that it follows the investigation chronologically, and not the events being investigated. Additional research is needed to build on what this book began. Excerpts posted to: http://that1archive.neocities.org/excerpts/CIA-Master-Killer.html Enjoy! --Mike That1Archive.neocities.org
