Gen. Manuel Noriega
Manuel Noriega was a Panamanian military officer and politician who served as the de facto ruler of Panama from 1983 until his ousting by U.S. forces in 1989. Initially an ally of the United States, Noriega's regime became increasingly authoritarian and corrupt, leading to his indictment on drug trafficking charges. His involvement in various illicit activities ultimately led to the U.S. invasion of Panama, during which he was captured and later brought to the United States for trial.
