Attorney Bruce Jacobs and homeowner Ana Lazara Rodriguez give an update on her case, one day after Ms. Rodriguez received a notice that she would be evicted in 24 hours.
Ana Lazara Rodriguez is an 82-year-old Cuban resident of Miami-Dade County who is venerated in the Cuban-American community here for her 19 years of defiance against Fidel Castro’s government as a political prisoner. While she is elderly and currently caring for another former political prisoner suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, she is in danger of ending up evicted from the place she’s called home for two decades.
