PART 1 - THE FAMILY GANGS

2005: STANLEY HANDAL: Arrested, then released....then?
http://www.godisnotwhite.com/is-coicou-a-good-family-name/

"the Police spokeperson who refused to divulgate the identity of a detainee suspected of involvement in kidnappings, shamelessly intervening to protect his « good family name », was lamenting to reporters how “there are people of good family and high social level that unfortunately are involved in kidnappings”

The arrest of Stanley Handal, a multi-millionaire suspected to be a ring
leader of the kidnapping enterprise, seems to corroborate the many
reports which suggested all along that the materminds of the kidnapping
phenomenon are rich and powerful individuals from Haiti’s ruling elite
who have powerful connections in the banking industry and within a
faction of the post-coup government, and who, as identified by the
Geneva-based Small Arms Survey, are the primary owners of firearm stocks
in the country.

2012: CLIFFORD BRANDT: Prominent businessman arrested for role in kidnapping
http://www.godisnotwhite.com/haiti-prominent-businessman-arrested-for-role-in-kidnapping/

“There were many theories about who was behind the enlevman, as kidnapping is called in Creole; kidnapping of this kind is always and everywhere an organized business of sorts. Many thought it was being run by the Brazilian troops who were a part of the approximately 11,000-person UN force that had been put in place in Haiti after Aristide’s fall, since Rio is a known vortex of kidnappers. Others claimed the business was being run by supporters of ousted president Aristide, in order to destabilize the new government. Others felt that it was just the usual criminal element, street thugs and drug lords taking advantage of troubled times. Everyone suspected — indeed, everyone knew — that there was police collusion, no matter who was the guiding force. No one, or no one who was talking, suspected the traditional elite. (Now everyone in Haiti says they knew, but that’s just Monday-morning F.B.I.ing.)”

Contrary to Amy Wilentz’ assertion, there were those who suspected the traditional “elite” all along and they did speak up. Some of it was done, in fact, on this very list (Bob Corbett’s Haiti List).

Rather than Monday-morning FBI.ing, isn’t what we are living these days better characterized as a case of “WE TOLD YOU SO – LONG AGO!”

CLIFFORD BRANDT is said to be incarcerated in new "air-conditionned" prison, said to be modern and top-security - a pride jewel of Canadian Government contribution to post-2004 Coup Haiti

"On October 28, 2012, the Prison Civile de la Croix-des-Bouquets was officially opened by the Prime Minister of Haiti. The prison is a Canadian project funded through DFATD's Stabilization and Reconstruction Task Force (START) program. CSC staff provided support and technical advice in the project management, and assisted with policy development...

From 2007 to 2013, CSC managed 49 Canadian correctional deployments to MINUSTAH – 45 CSC deployments and four provincial correctional deployments from British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec. These correctional experts were influential in improving prison conditions by providing advice to all levels of Haitian correctional staff. They provided mentoring and training in areas such as prison management, contingency plan development and promotion of international human rights standards...".

August 10, 2014: CLIFFORD BRANDT Escapes from Prison Civile de la Croix-des-Bouquets

"Clifford Brandt, a close friend of current U.S.-backed Haitian President Michel Joseph Martelly and of his sons, is said to be the #1 ring leader of Gang Galil, a vicious criminal gang that specializes in kidnappings for ransom.

The many privileges enjoyed by Clifford Brandt in freedom, in jail or in hiding continue to be a source of great embarrassment for Michel Martelly as well as his foreign supporters in the governments of the U.S., Canada and France".
