Over the weekend, a group of self-declared freedom fighters set sail from Colombia to Venezuela on an apparent mission hatched by Goudreau to overthrow the Venezuelan government. The Maduro administration has blamed the attack on the government, which has denied a connection to Goudreau or his Florida-based security company SilverCorp. The company claims it had entered into a $220 million agreement with the Venezuelan opposition to help oust Maduro. Goudreau later said his men vomited the entire way and nearly ran out of gasoline as they headed toward Venezuela. He said he often visited the training camps and sometimes spoke with Goudreau about his reason for working with group.
