8. It looks like this one was also from Columbia

I don't see where it would be much of a shorter trip to come in on the Pacific side. Still over 1,000 miles?

I found this interesting from the article on the two survivors from last week's bombing:

"Two men survived a U.S. strike on a suspected drug-trafficking submersible vessel in the Caribbean last week, and the U.S. repatriated the men, one from Ecuador and one from Colombia. Ecuador released the man, identified as Andrés Fernando Tufiño, after authorities said they had found no evidence that he had committed a crime.

The Colombian citizen remains hospitalized after his repatriation. Interior Minister Armando Benedetti said he "arrived with brain trauma, sedated, drugged, breathing with a ventilator." Authorities there said he would face prosecution. Two other men were killed in the strike on the submersible vessel."
