“It’ll likely be years before a jury even begins to weigh whether Maduro is guilty of the charges against him. Before that happens, the court will have to grapple with a thicket of complex legal and geopolitical questions — whether his capture was legal, for example, and whether he was the legitimate president of Venezuela at the time.”
