Suspect in Moïse assassination was a DEA source

2021-07-13

BLUF:
[ABC] A U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration official told AP that one of the suspects in Moïse’s assassination was at times a confidential source to the agency, and that the suspect reached out to his contacts at the DEA after the killing and was urged to surrender. The official said the DEA and a U.S. State Department official provided information to Haiti’s government that led to the surrender and arrest of one suspect and one other individual, whom it didn’t identify.

#8 I'll just go way out on a limb here and predict CTU's phones will go dead, banking accounts will soon close, corporate records will be shredded, and the firm will be shuttered very soon. Very slick websites, but did you notice the lack of corporate officers and bio's? Past corporate performance ?

This extraordinary event could turn into a shi* sammich for the fledgling Biden administration.

Shot 16 times? What are the chances Moïse pulled his Glock and 5 guys opened up on him? Hey, WTF! It was either him or us.

I'll wager Carlson's team is burning some midnight oil pulling this one together for release.

It's the Guardian, but provides some perspective and sounds pretty accurate.

Yes, and we rather favor trends, "patterns" and social networks, those kinds of indicators.

#5 This is the website of a CTU Security based in Doral, Florida. Whether they are the company named in the article, I could not say, but they do offer both English and Spanish as options. Their About Us page starts:

#4 Meanwhile, Colombia’s national police chief, Gen. Jorge Luis Vargas, said that a Florida-based enterprise, CTU Security, used its company credit card to buy 19 plane tickets from Bogota to Santo Domingo for Colombian suspects. Most arrived in the Dominican Republic in June and moved into Haiti within weeks, Vargas said.

CTU Security front the substantial logistics expenses out of egg money? Save receipts? Anyone at CTU think to contact the FBI, run a sanity check? Take FL-826 N and I-75 N, approx 15 minutes to Miramir office and a little FACECOM? SAC, Bueller, anyone ?

Thank you Gen. Vargas for staying on top of this. How soon do we discover that the DOM REP Servicio de Inteligencia Militar (SIM) and/or the Cuban Dirección General de Inteligencia (DGI) also provided repeated indications and warnings ?

The smell, it just won't go away.

Betsy Devos and brother must be laughing their arses off.
