Election 2016: What Was Marco Rubio Arrested For At Age 18 In Miami?
Internation Business Times ^ | January 21, 2015 | Adam Lidgett

Before becoming a Florida senator or a 2016 Republican presidential hopeful, Marco Rubio was apparently just another kid caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. After a bad first year at college in Missouri, Rubio returned home to Miami shortly before the summer of 1990, when he was arrested in May at age 18 for being in a public park after it had closed for the night, the Washington Post reported Thursday.

The misdemeanor offense was eventually dismissed, and most of the documentation that led to the dismissal of charges has been destroyed by the Miami-Dade County court clerk's office. The police report didn't indicate there was any alcohol or drug activity going on. Police officials said it was commonplace at the time to dismiss minor offenses at the park. After the incident, Rubio packed his bags to start college classes at Santa Fe College, diving into his studies.

The apparent youthful indiscretion took place just a year after Rubio's brother-in-law was convicted for drug trafficking. Orlando Cicilia, who now works in real estate, was reported to be the "front man" in a massive cocaine ring, coordinating with buyers and organizing shipments, the Daily Mail reported.

Unlike his brother-in-law's arrest, Rubio's brush with the law has never been reported, and he hasn't talked about it during his campaigns. Rubio's campaign has said it was not a story even worth reporting.

Not quite as gay as that foam party picture, but way too gay for comfort.

“Rubio scares me. we better watch our flank, i’m telling ya or we wont get trump or cruz.”

He scares me, too. The GOPe is so powerful and evil and they *love* him. Can’t trust Rubio at all—he is no good.

The records were on Clinton’s server, which she wiped clean, with a cloth. So, we’ll never know....

agreed. I wonder how the losers’ votes will move, if they do.

great home page by the way. So well written.

My old man died when i was 15 and and my head would have seen fifty walls if he saw how I acted in my late teens/early twenties.

A visit by my brother and three crazy Italian uncles changed all that.

But what you say about family is ONE HUNDRED percent true. It’s everything when it comes to development.

minorities without fathers and no uncles/grandfathers around almost have no chance.

Who cares what he did 25 years ago. Look at what he did 3 years ago:

“Are you saying he’s gay? Because I could totally see it. Wouldn’t be the first gay guy to have a passel of children.”

Yeah, like that faggelah Mitt Romney, gave a guy a haircut once. Like a *hairdresser* you get me?

Him and John Roberts are so deep in “it” that they are finding next year’s Christmas presents...

But that is speculation on my part.

Suspicious behavior - sweating, frenetic water consumption, and rapid speech patterns.

“Rumors are Rubio was with another guy late at night in a park.”

Explains a lot - thanks.

Drinking in a park after hours, apparently. Misdemeanor — a youthful indiscretion.

Not good, but not too serious.

There are many things that could hurt Rubio. This probably isn’t one of them.

Rubio was busted for cruising.

Yes, there was a lot of coke being dealt at the “park” where the arrest was made.

The cops swept in and busted a lot of people, knowing that the charges wouldn't stick.

Rubio was busted with a guy he later moved in with.

A couple of year later, that guy was busted for running a live gay porn site.
