Ex-U.S. soldier, now a double murder suspect, is a hero in Ukraine.
They were deported from Kenya shortly afterward. Lang’s passport was canceled, due to unpaid child support, prosecutors say. Zwiefelhofer was booked into jail for sexual exploitation of a minor almost immediately after landing in the airport in Charlotte, North Carolina, after airport Customs officers found incriminating videos on his cellphone, according to the complaint. He was released on bond and then left the state.
The ad caught the attention of Serafin Lorenzo, 53, who often “flipped” property for profit, court documents say."I have cash on hand," Lorenzo wrote, offering to pay $3,000 for the haul of weapons."Mine is a sure deal." A search of Zwiefelhofer’s Google and Facebook histories showed he was traveling with Lang in Miami, court documents say. During that time, he searched phrases like “Classified Miami Handguns,” “Hotwire Boat Ignition Switch,” and “How to Smuggle Myself to South America.”
Court documents say he then traveled to Colombia, near a rumored mountain safe house for Venezuelan resistance fighters, and then to Spain two months later. Using social media, investigators eventually placed him in Ukraine. “We all respect people who came here to fight for Ukraine,” said Batryn, the Ukrainian human rights advocate. “We are united fighting for values we gained after the revolution, for principles created by Americans.”
Those hearings have not gone smoothly. A series of snafus have bogged them down, including the arrival of thick stacks of U.S. State Department documents with no Ukrainian translations. In just the past four months, Lang has been jailed, released on house arrest, jailed again and released on house arrest yet again.“We still have a war going on,” Lang testified at the appeal hearing. “There are people that are still dying. There are people that still need help. And I wanted to help.
U.S. prosecutors in Florida declined to comment on the case. But last week, they filed a superseding indictment with new charges: violation of the Neutrality Act and conspiracy to kill, kidnap or maim persons in a foreign country, based on evidence that the duo was trying to fund a military expedition against Venezuela’s government.
