It has been almost two weeks since Haiti’s president, Jovenel Moïse, was assassinated in his residence by armed forces. Usually this amount of time would have given authorities time to solve the assassination, but in this case there are still many questions to answer. In this short episode, Drew and Alex react to this hit job and try to figure out why it happened and who did it. There have been many moving pieces, including a link with a Haitian doctor in Florida. Also, according to the AP, “officers found a hat with the logo of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, 20 boxes of bullets, gun parts, four license plates from the Dominican Republic, two cars and correspondence, among other things, in Sanon’s house in Haiti. Twenty-six former Colombian soldiers are suspected in the killing and 23 have been arrested, along with three Haitians.” Did the DEA do the hit? Was it a drug cartel? Powerful enemies inside Haiti? Or just a successful coup by dissatisfied citizens?
