Even though it always was, it's as bad right now as ever.
- what happened this time?
Jovenel Moïse, the 43rd president of Haiti, was assassinated on 7 July 2021 at 1 a.m. EDT (UTC−04:00) at his residence in Port-au-Prince.
Sanon, Vincent and Joseph were extradited to the U.S., where a total of 11 suspects face federal charges in the slaying of Haiti's president.
U.S. prosecutors have described it as a plot hatched in both Haiti and Florida to hire mercenaries to kidnap or kill Moïse, who was 53 when he was slain at his private home near the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince.
Today, a video made the rounds. It showed a man being burned in a street fire. Someone ate a piece of his leg.
Might be the guy they call Barbecue.
