Antonio Guerrero, Ramon LabaC1ino, Fernando Gonzalez, Gerardo Hernandez and Rene Gonzalez -internationally known as the Cuban Five- were gathering information on terrorist groups based in Florida that have conducted criminal actions against the Cuban people for nearly 50 years encouraged by successive US administrations.
