[[Jimmy Hughes]] joined FGBMFI in 1987 and subsequently founded Jimmy Hughes Ministries – Free the Oppressed in Honduras. He openly admitted his past as a "Mafia hit-man" on the FGBMFI website. John Carrette "god-fathered" Hughes into the Fellowship and helped set him up in Honduras.[^1]
Hughes was a high-standing member of FGBMFI and a keynote speaker at a dinner event in Fresno, [[California]], in February 2008, alongside [[General Daniel Lopez Carballo]] of Honduras. Hughes, General Daniel Lopez Carballo, and [[Romeo Vasquez Velasquez]] were all members of FGBMFI. Hughes was allegedly involved in the planning of the [[Honduras coup]] of June 2009, and Lopez Carballo and Vásquez Velásquez were described as his friends.[^1] On June 28, 2009, the Honduran military detained President [[Manuel Zelaya]] and flew him to [[Costa Rica]]; Zelaya had ordered the removal of Vásquez Velásquez as chairman of the joint chiefs days earlier, and the Supreme Court had ordered him restored. The National Congress then replaced Zelaya with its president, [[Roberto Micheletti]], who called it a "constitutional succession."[^3] On September 26, 2009, Hughes was arrested at Miami International Airport on his way to Honduras and charged in the 1981 murders of the Cabazon tribal leader [[Fred Alvarez]] and two others; the charges were dismissed in July 2010.[^4]
