Haiti president's guards to be interrogated after assassination — prosecutor
2021-07-18
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AFP) — The heads of the security detail meant to be protecting Haitian President Jovenel Moise the night he was assassinated will be interrogated in the coming days, the head of the public prosecutor office said Thursday.

"I have given (police) the power to interview all the security agents close to President Jovenel Moise," said Port-au-Prince government commissioner Bed-Ford Claude, a day after Moise was shot dead at his home in the capital.

"If you are responsible for the security of the president, where were you? What did you do to avoid this fate for the president?" Claude said.
Good news and bad news for the guards: they're all alive today because they didn't fight back against the assassins. None of the guards suffered any injury. It's almost as if the whole thing was staged. Poor Moise: he should have invested in better guards. The NYT, of all places, has more.

#1  I'm awaiting General Mark A. Milley's second book.
The truth will be revealed about the Mar-a-Lago conference, you'll see.

[sarc off]

BTW, I'm still curious as to how a General officer like Milley finds the time to write books.
