Former Green Beret Jordan Goudreau, accused of weapons smuggling in a failed 2020 Venezuela invasion plot, is now facing arrest after skipping a crucial bond hearing. His relationship with filmmaker Jen Gatien, who backed his bond, turned hostile, with Gatien alleging abuse and fears he might flee. Goudreau's desperate and erratic behavior, including attempts to retrieve firearms and pressure others, has bolstered prosecutors' case. The failed Venezuela raid, dubbed the Bay of Piglets, ended in disaster, with several participants killed and two U.S. associates jailed. Goudreau's trial for allegedly trafficking 60 AR-15 rifles and related equipment adds another twist to this ongoing saga.
