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.

The arrest record in 1990 was destroyed. Rumors are Rubio was with another guy late at night in a park.

It reminds me of a song back in 1990 called, "The Things That Make You Go Hmmmm....."

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.

he gives that vibe, but honestly I think it there are more in the closet in the GOP than the Dem party now.

I don’t need to know whether he is or not. I rule him out for policy reasons. No need or desire to dig further.

Well, the skinny trousers and ‘booties’ were a little ‘questionable’.

He was 18, probably just curious, after all it is only gay the second time.

He has apparently admitted to going to “foam parties.” That’s just not something normal college guys do.

Oh I know they are real bad. No doubt about that.

Jeb said he would kill for him and go to prison for his Daddy. I wonder what Jeb knows about Daddy that would send him to Prison?

Jeb said that not me. Here watch,

It’s Miami. I’d put money on and 18 year-old Rubio smoking weed in the park with someone before smoking pole.
