After spending a full year in preventive prison, U.S. resident David Strecker will stand trial on charges that he promoted Costa Rica as a destination for sex tourism.
David "Cuba Dave" Strecker is set to finish out a full year in preventive prison for allegations of promoting sex tourism in Costa Rica. He says he was officially charged Thursday for the first time.
David Strecker, aka Cuba Dave, met with The Tico Times for an exclusive interview at the prison yard in La Reforma jail recently. While authorities maintain that the 65-year-old U.S. man illegally promoted sex tourism to Costa Rica, Strecker says he's been unfairly jailed for six months.
