U.S. woman is deported
Vietnam deported an American woman who was convicted last week on terrorism charges, her brother and a court official said today.
Nguyen Thuong “Cuc” Foshee, 58, of Orlando, Fla., flew out of the country from the Ho Chi Minh City airport today, said her brother, Nguyen Phu Tri.
A court official said she was released from prison early because of health reasons.
Two other U.S. citizens who were convicted along with Foshee were expected to serve out the remaining three weeks of their sentences before being deported.
