Jimmy Charles (hereinafter “Charles”), aged 27 years and father of two young children, was discovered by his family dead of 11 gunshot wounds in the morgue of the State University Hospital (Hôpital de l'Université d'État d'Haïti) in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, on January 13, 2005.

On January 5, 2005, Charles was arrested by Brazilian soldiers of the UN Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) in front of his father’s home in the Fort National neighborhood of Port-au-Prince, close to his own home at Fort National #108. His arrest was illegal because it was neither based on an arrest warrant, nor was he caught in the act of committing a criminal offense. At the time of his arrest, he was about to unload sand for his father’s mason business from a truck.

MINUSTAH handed Charles over to the Haitian National Police (hereinafter “HNP”) on the same day and Charles was imprisoned at the Anti-Gang Service holding cell at the commissariat in downtown Port-au-Prince, a single nine by twelve foot cement cell without running water, toilet or furniture where prisoners receive their only food and clean water from family members allowed to visit the cell door in the morning.

Over the following days, Charles’ wife, Mikelsie Jusma, and his father, Jean-Charles Déus Charles, went to see him daily at the Anti-Gang cell and brought him food.

The last time a member of Charles’ family saw him alive was on the morning of January 12, while he was in custody in the downtown Anti-Gang holding cell. In the early afternoon of the same day, his dead body arrived at the State Hospital morgue with 11 bullet wounds, a strong indicator of an execution-style killing. This sequence of events and the available circumstantial evidence suggest that Charles was killed while he was still in police custody or immediately after he was “released” from the Anti-Gang cell only to be seized again and executed either by regular members of the HNP or by irregular police attachés assigned to the Anti-Gang commissariat and answering to its chief commissar, who at the time of Charles’ death was Commissaire Auguste Mones. The body is said to have arrived at the morgue in an ambulance. The HNP has police ambulances on call, which have repeatedly been used to transport victims of extra-judicial executions to the State Hospital morgue.

Given that the Charles’ dead body reportedly arrived in the State University morgue in the early afternoon of the same day his wife last saw him in the Anti-Gang cell in the morning, the PNH’s claim that Charles was killed in a shootout between police and bandits is not credible. The first thing an individual would do immediately after being released after a week in detention in an overcrowded and unsanitary police cell, is to see his family or go into hiding, not to participate in an armed confrontation in another part of the city quite distant from his neighborhood.

The case of Jimmy Charles is not an isolated case. It is symptomatic of a practice of police abuse and extra-judicial executions by members of the HNP and irregular police attachés, which has been denounced by numerous human rights reports.

Haiti is the most vile, godforsaken shithole in the western hemisphere. There truly is no hope for that place.

I absolutely agree.

We could dump $100 billion dollars in this "country", then buy every citizen a new car, build 'em a new house, and ship them 100x more food then they could ever use, and this place would still be a hell on earth.

Well, a new car ain't worth a fuck with their roads and infrastructure, but you get my point.

The greed, corruption and inhumanity will never be overcome.
