A little over a week ago, on  December 6th and 7th, at least 184 people were massacred in Wharf Jeremi, part of  Site Soley, one of the most impoverished communities in the Americas, located by the seashore in Port-au-Prince. The majority of those murdered, 127, were elderly.[1] The massacre was perpetrated by a “powerful gang”, more accurately labeled as a paramilitary unit,  led by Jean Monel Felix, aka Mikano. Unarmed people were murdered by heavy weaponry and machetes; bodies were burned.
