The assassination of Haiti's president was a calculated conspiracy driven by greed and arrogance, orchestrated by a Miami security firm seeking lucrative contracts through violent regime change. Evidence shows defendants communicated in coded messages, wore fake U.S. military uniforms and methodically planned the murder for months. The widow's testimony and guilty pleas from five conspirators prove this was a straightforward criminal plot to seize power and enrich themselves.
The real masterminds behind the assassination were powerful political figures within Haiti's government with full backing from U.S. intelligence agencies. Phone records link the current prime minister to the chief suspect, while a key plotter confirmed American officials green-lighted the operation. Multiple conspirators were FBI and DEA informants, and U.S. agents met with plotters months before the killing yet failed to stop it.
