Eulalio Francisco Castro Paz (Frank Castro or Frank Pérez) was a Cuban-American freedom fighter, anticommunist revolutionary, gang leader, arms dealer, terrorist group leader, intelligence operative, undercover agent, drug and narcotics smuggler, decades-long jewelry store owner, and pillar of the Little Havana community who has a street named after him in Miami.
Frank was a Cuban-born exile living in the United States who worked for the Central Intelligence Agency and as a member of Brigade 2506 participated in the Bay of Pigs Invasion. Frank was a vocal critic of the Castro regime, and was a staunch anticommunist and anti-Castro activist (activista anticastra). Castro hated Castro most of all, and spent his adult life in exile trying to topple his government in Cuba.
