Who was the dictator and head of state seized, prosecuted, and sentenced to prison by the U.S. for drug trafficking?

First a friend, then an enemy of the United States, Manuel Noriega, the strongman of Panama, was finally taken down by a U.S. military operation, captured, and brought to Miami for trial on drug charges in 1989.

Noriega was convicted and sentenced to 40 years in a U.S. prison on September 16, 1992 (which was later reduced to 30 years). Ultimately, coming from France where he had been extradited, convicted in court, and sentenced to a prison term in July 2010, he returned to Panama in December 2011 to serve 20 years in its austere prison system.
