Mariel: Four Days In June 260 06 02 06 05 1980

The Mariel Boatlift, which began in April 1980, was still going early in June.

This selection of WTVJ News stories reflects the events and developments that defined the Boatlift.

The sense that the Boatlift was coming to an end were premature; although the most intense migration was over by the end of the month, the Mariel Boatlift did not end until late October 1980, when a mutual agreement between the Cuban and American governments was reached.
