The preliminary hearing in a Florida Court for the sons of former President Ricardo Martinelli, will be held on December 4 at 8 am which gives them time to contemplate the news that a key witness against them and other prominent suspects  in the Odebrecht  bribery investigation has  returned to  Panama with documentary  evidence   after confirming a deal with  the anti-corruption  prosecutor.

The date and time were set by officers from the Immigration Department of the Krome Detention Center in South Florida, where they are in custody. They were arrested in Miami on  November 21.
