The kidnapping last week of 17 American and Canadian missionaries has put the spotlight on the country’s surging plague of kidnappings

By the time Jean Eduver, a private chauffeur, left for work at dawn Wednesday in La Plaine, a flat stretch of shantytowns north of the Haitian capital, kidnappers had already hit his neighborhood multiple times.

Overnight, armed bandits broke into a woman’s nearby house, ransacked it and grabbed her 3-year-old child, he said. Another neighbor’s daughter, having just returned from the U.S., was also abducted. And in a neighboring village, kidnappers that morning stopped a young woman taking her two sisters to school and kidnapped all three, Mr. Eduver said.

I would like to inform you about a refugee boy whose father died, leaving $ 60 million worth of savings, but he needs a beneficiary to stand to claim this money. If you are interested, please send your personal information to this email: unitednationsrefugeeboardgmail.com

Of course. The victims are Americans so the spotlight is now on.

Or the country’s surging plague of foreign missionaries 🤷🏼

They only care now, because it involves Americans.

Best not to be a missionary for a rich church.

The Clintons really destroyed that place and it's never been the same. Great evil spreads like a cancer.

Kidnappings have been happening for more than 20 years in Haiti. Evry single family is threatened, even the poor! Why only denouncing that now?!?

Is it kidnapping or a hostage crisis?

Gang boss in Haiti threatens to kill abducted missionariesPORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) — The boss of a notorious Haitian gang accused of kidnapping 17 members of a U.S.-based missionary group last weekend is warning that the hostages will be killed if his demands aren't met. Sad. But they should have never been there in the first place. The gang boss was stupid enough to show his face. Now we can track him using facial recognition programs and then Navy Seals can do what they do best. Meanwhile biden is set to let in 60k more Haitians illegally, unvaxxed and full of disease.
