Rodolphe Jaar Assumes Guilt in Assassination of Jovenel Moise
Rodolphe Jaar
Published 22 January 2022
For his responsibility in the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse, Jaar could face life imprisonment.
Rodolphe Jaar, accused of participating in the assassination of Haitian President Jovenel Moïse, admitted his guilt on Friday after confessing that he provided weapons and ammunition to the Colombian mercenaries who entered the president's residence and tried to help them hide in embassies of other countries after the assassination.
Jaar, 49, a Haitian-Chilean who was arrested last Wednesday in Miami, United States, will undergo a detention hearing on Wednesday, January 26, and a formal arraignment on February 3.
Based on his involvement in the assassination, he will be charged with "conspiracy to commit murder or kidnapping outside the United States (U.S.), and providing material support resulting in death."
