In late June 2025, the arrest of Celso Gamboa Sanchez, a former Costa Rican Supreme Court justice, ex-national security minister, and former prosecutor, sent shockwaves through the nation’s political and legal establishments. Accused of ties to drug trafficking, Gamboa was detained and faced the once-unthinkable prospect of extradition to the United States. While the news made international headlines, the true catalyst for this high-stakes takedown wasn’t a sprawling, multi-year investigation by a federal agency. It was the culmination of a relentless, clandestine campaign waged by an anonymous whistleblower, ignited by a single, strategically delivered complaint to the U.S. State Department.
For over three years, the whistleblower wrote numerous criminal complaints for Enzo Vincenzi to file in Costa Rican courts, but they languished, seemingly ignored by the very institutions meant to investigate them.

Accusations of police misconduct and wrongful imprisonment have come to define the harrowing narrative of Enzo Vincenzi, a now former North Fort Myers, Florida resident who claims he was violently assaulted, falsely arrested, and subjected to a campaign of public corruption and defamation. Vincenzi’s case is not isolated; it echoes long-standing controversies involving the Lee County Sheriff's Office and its leadership, particularly Sheriff Carmine Marceno. This article draws from Vincenzi’s own detailed account, recent news investigations, legal analysis, and broader issues of police accountability to present a comprehensive look at what happened, why it matters, and how it connects to larger patterns of law enforcement conduct in Florida and beyond. |
