Like most journalists released from Cuban prisons to Spain, Du Bouchet Hernández had a very difficult time adjusting. Economic woes and bureaucratic problems made the transition extremely difficult for many, as my colleague Borja Bergareche reported for CPJ in 2011. At the time, many said Spain would only be a temporary stop. Since then, at least seven journalists, including Herrera Acosta, have moved to the United States by CPJ‘s count.
