DA @chesaboudin was considered a hero in Venezuela because he told them his parents were “political prisoners in the U.S.” (not true, they were in prison for murder during a burglary as members of the Weather Underground). This landed him a job as Chavez’s interpreter. https://t.co/JXpQvbPIOT

Except his parents didn't actually commit murder. If as members of a political group they received disproportionately long sentences for minor involvement in a crime during which a murder was committed by someone else, the label "political prisoners" isn't necessarily inaccurate.

Two police officers and a security guard were killed, and Boudin’s parents, members of a terrorist group, were arrested for their role. But they did much more, like the bomb that accidentally detonated and nearly killed his mom — it was intended for an Army ball in New Jersey.
