The Spin


Handing Joseph Felix Badio and 17 Colombians over to U.S. prosecutors is the only realistic path to justice for Jovenel Moise. Five years on, the Haitian case is stuck with judges quitting, clerks threatened and no trial date in sight, while Miami has already secured indictments and guilty pleas. Evidence gathered there can feed the Haitian file, and sovereignty means choosing cooperation that actually works.

Shipping 18 suspects to Florida hands Washington a permanent lever over Haiti's entire political class. Every new indictment lands like a threat hanging over officials right as an electoral process unfolds, shaping who dares to run and who stays quiet. Justice controlled by a foreign prosecutor is leverage, not accountability.
