A federal judge in Tampa has issued an arrest warrant for former Green Beret Jordan Goudreau, 49, after he failed to appear in court regarding violations of his pre-trial release conditions linked to a failed coup attempt in Venezuela in 2020. Goudreau’s bond guarantor, filmmaker Jen Gatien, testified about his threatening behavior and alleged deceit, claiming he intended to flee. The court also heard accusations against Goudreau for pressuring others to make false statements. The 2020 incident, dubbed the Bay of Piglets, is criticized as emblematic of the amateurish U.S. regime change efforts in Venezuela.
