司法 · 马杜罗遭起诉马杜罗和弗洛雷斯面临酷刑共谋指控；法官驳回她的医疗居家拘禁申请文字 2026年10月8日 UTC 23:11观看文字实录0:09U.S.0:09prosecutors now charge Nicolas Maduro and Celia Flores with conspiring to commit0:14torture.0:14The accusation reaches political opponents and unnamed Americans, expanding a0:18prosecution already built on drug and weapons allegations.0:21Flores has also lost her bid for medical house arrest.0:24What do the new charge and the custody ruling change, and what remains unresolved0:27before trial?0:28Flores is accused of helping design the infrastructure of torture and repression,0:33not simply of being married to Maduro.0:35Her name is Cilia, not Celia.0:38Both defendants deny wrongdoing, and neither has been convicted of these alleged0:42acts.0:42The superseding indictment was unsealed in Manhattan on October 8th, 2026, after a0:48federal grand jury voted to bring the new charge.0:50It adds conspiracy to commit torture.0:53The complete indictment and full written rulings were unavailable for independent0:56examination, limiting what can be established about individual allegations and the1:00court's reasoning.1:01On October 7th, the charges were still expected, possibly the next day.1:06On October 8th, the accusation became a filed indictment.1:09The possibility of charges against additional people remains only a possibility.1:13No further defendant or filing date is established.1:16Maduro was absent from court when the early October 8 account appeared and was1:20expected to be arraigned on the new charge.1:22No exact arraignment date or completed arraignment is established.1:25His lawyer's October 7 statement that he had received no notice described that1:29earlier moment.1:30Not a proven current disclosure problem.1:33U.S.1:33forces seized Maduro and Flores from their Caracas compound in a nighttime raid on1:38January 3 and brought them to New York.1:40The available account does not specify the year.1:42The new indictment does not resolve disputes surrounding that seizure.1:45Maduro allegedly authorized torture against particular individuals and oversaw1:50internal security services using arbitrary detention, violence, and torture against1:54people who opposed his government.1:56The alleged campaign spans roughly a decade, but its precise end points are2:00unverified.2:00Venezuela's military counterintelligence agency, DGCIM, is cited.2:05Its complete operational chain of responsibility is not established.2:08The alleged methods include electric shocks, beatings, asphyxiation, drowning type2:13abuse, and mock executions.2:15The accusations also include rape and starvation.2:18But the available material does not establish which victims experienced those acts2:21or that every victim experienced every listed method.2:24The allegations extend to prisoners' families, including children.2:28One says Maduro personally threatened to kill a prisoner's child as psychological2:32torture.2:33That accusation concerns using the prospect of harm to someone outside custody to2:37intimidate a prisoner.2:38It remains an allegation, not a finding that the threat occurred.2:41Victims identified as 7 and 8 remain unnamed.2:44Americans were allegedly detained on claims they plotted to assassinate Maduro.2:48Taken to a concrete house and tortured, including with electric shocks, that does2:52not establish an assassination plot existed.2:55Victim 7 was allegedly tortured in January 2022 and released months later.2:59The exact release date is unknown.3:01At least two Americans is a minimum, not an exact total.3:04A later account describes three unnamed U.S.3:06citizens.3:07The earlier expectation concerned more than a dozen wrongfully detained Americans,3:11but that is not an established American victim count for the unsealed indictment.3:15The minimum of two does not necessarily contradict three, but the numbered victims3:19and the complete American victim count have not been independently reconciled.3:23The earlier figure could concern a broader investigation.3:27That explanation is unproven.3:28These figures must not be added together or treated as a confirmed increase or3:32decrease in victims.3:34Barry Pollack represents Maduro.3:36The defense seeks dismissal, arguing that Maduro and Flores are protected as a3:40foreign leader and first lady.3:42Del C Rodriguez figures in the recognition dispute, but no ruling granting or3:47rejecting immunity or dismissal is established.3:50The suggested legal obstacle to immunity is that the United States recognizes3:54Rodriguez rather than Maduro.3:56The exact recognition statement and its legal implications have not been4:00independently established.4:01Venezuelan authorities are also described as seeking immunity for Rodriguez, but not4:05Maduro.4:06That contrast does not itself establish U.4:09S.4:09recognition or settle either defendant's protection.4:12Prosecutors oppose immunity, while the defendants have pleaded not guilty in the4:16existing drug case.4:17Those pleas must not be treated as verified pleas to the new torture charge.4:21The earlier allegations include narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation4:26conspiracy, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and conspiracy to4:30possess those weapons.4:31None is an established conviction here.4:33Alex Saab pleaded guilty on September 15th, 2026, to a money laundering scheme4:37involving bribery and public contracts for food and medicine.4:41He has been described as Maduro's business partner and financial front person,4:44making his potential cooperation consequential, but not proof of this accusation.4:48The described cooperation arrangement includes a prosecution recommendation for a4:52reduced sentence if Saab's assistance in cases against other Venezuelan officials4:57proves valuable.4:58Its full terms have not been independently examined.5:01A recommendation is not an awarded reduction, and no established connection shows5:05Saab supplied the basis for the torture charge or identifies testimony he would give5:09about it.5:10Flores, 69, is held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.5:15Her lawyers sought a New York residence under 24-hour guard for medical care, with5:19proposed GPS monitoring and security restrictions.5:22They were seeking supervised house arrest, not unrestricted release.5:26The defense's medical claims include a loss of 25 pounds, about 11 kilograms, in5:31detention, chest pain, arrhythmias, and other heart problems.5:35They include a possible minor heart attack in July and the possibility of heart5:39surgery.5:40Medical records were unavailable for independent confirmation.5:43These claims do not establish that a heart attack occurred.5:46The requested care includes a recommended cardiac catheterization that could lead to5:50more invasive procedures.5:52Multiple prescribed medications are also described, including medication for a5:56potential heart attack.5:57Neither a completed catheterization nor a definite need for surgery is established.6:01Prosecutors opposed release, arguing that Flores presented an extreme flight risk6:06and a danger to the public.6:08They also maintained that she had been taken to a hospital for treatment when6:12needed.6:12Those positions are distinct from a judicial determination of what medical care she6:16requires.6:17Judge Alvin Hellerstein denied bail and pretrial house arrest on October 8th.6:22Earlier accounts without a ruling are overtaken by that denial.6:25Flight risk and the seriousness of the charges are described as reasons, but his6:29exact words and complete reasoning are unavailable.6:31No specific medical treatment directive accompanying the denial is established.6:35Refusing home confinement does not answer whether every requested examination or6:39procedure will be provided in detention.6:40The medical concerns remain separate from the unproven criminal allegations.6:44The immediate answer is an expanded prosecution and continued detention rather than6:48the requested home confinement, not a conviction, an immunity ruling, or a settled6:52treatment plan.6:53What remains unresolved is the evidence supporting the torture charge, the new6:56arraignment, the dismissal arguments, and the full custody decision.6:59A written custody decision is expected October 13th, 2026, but no independently7:05examined scheduling order guarantees publication.7:07The existing case's trial was scheduled for June 1st, 2027, in a July 22, 20267:13decision before the new indictment.7:16No separate trial schedule for the torture accusation is established, and it remains7:20unknown whether that accusation will be covered by the existing schedule or whether7:25the June 1st date will change.阅读文章事件时间线HeyDex短视频 ↗谁报道了什么多家媒体报道的要点New torture conspiracy charge against Maduro and Flores5 家媒体Number of American torture victims alleged5
