Stands the test of time @LivingColour @vurnt22 I was listening to this on the train this evening. Played it five times in a row. I remember when @VideoMusicBox would feature the video several times a week. Vital in expanding my mind and taste in music.

A white couple rightfully received no mercy from a judge who sentenced them for treating their adopted Black children like slaves.
Jeanne Kay Whitefeather, 63, was sentenced to 215 years in prison. Her husband Donald Ray Lantz, 62, got 160 years.

Vile.

Fritz Alphonse Jean: The Next President of the Transitional Presidential Council

Haiti is about to see a new face at the head of the Presidential Transitional Council (CPT). As of March 7, 2025, Fritz A. Jean will officially take the reins of this key body, succeeding Leslie Voltaire , representative of the "Fanmi Lavalas" party who will have led the transition since October 2024.

Fritz Jean is a seasoned economist and a well-known figure on the Haitian political scene. Former Governor of the Bank of the Republic of Haiti (1998-2001) and former Prime Minister designated in 2016 under the presidency of Jocelerme Privert, he has always been a central player in debates on the country's economic governance. He distinguished himself in particular by his commitment to the Montana Agreement, which aimed to offer a political alternative to the Haitian crisis.

His predecessor, Leslie Voltaire , played a crucial role in launching the CPT in 2024. However, his time at the helm of the institution was marked by limited progress in addressing the country's major challenges. His failure to introduce concrete security measures and accelerate the electoral process has drawn criticism, leaving a political transition still uncertain. Despite his goodwill, he has failed to meet the expectations of a population seeking stability and structural reforms.

Fritz A. Jean thus takes the reins of the CPT with a crucial mission: to restore the confidence of Haitians, to implement effective actions and to correct the shortcomings left by his predecessor. After a transition marked by insufficient progress under Leslie Voltaire, the Haitian people expect different results and hope to finally see tangible changes.

Judicial scandal: Aviol Fleurant, the former minister under arrest warrant

The legal saga surrounding the former Minister of Planning and External Cooperation, Aviol Fleurant, is taking a dramatic turn. An arrest warrant has been issued against him by investigating judge Loubens Élysée, after the former minister chose to defy the authority of the justice system by refusing to appear when summoned. This decision, which has far-reaching consequences, could mark a turning point in the investigation that directly targets the former senior government official.

According to exclusive information obtained by our editorial staff, the arrest warrant has already been sent to the Central Directorate of the Judicial Police (DCPJ), which took possession of it on Monday. This gesture reflects the determination of the justice system to shed full light on this affair that is shaking the political world. The investigating judge, determined to uphold the law, now has the means to force the former minister to appear before him.

The former minister is accused of a series of fraudulent maneuvers, the most serious being the false declaration of assets, a particularly serious offense that raises many questions about the transparency and integrity of public officials. The case is in fact fueled by a damning report issued by the Anti-Corruption Unit (ULCC), which leaves no doubt about the seriousness of the accusations. This situation damages the reputation of the former minister, a personality who until now was very prominent in the spheres of public administration.

Faced with this legal procedure, Aviol Fleurant tried to oppose the investigation by filing a divestment action before the Court of Cassation. However, the high court did not grant his request, considering that the investigation should continue. A source close to the investigating judge confirmed that this attempt to block the legal process had no effect on the progress of the case. Judge Loubens Élysée seems determined to relentlessly pursue the investigation concerning him.

The Fleurant case continues to generate great interest, both in politics and in civil society. The outcome of this case could indeed open the way to a series of potentially devastating revelations. All eyes are now on the court, which will have to decide the fate of the former minister in the coming days. The spectre of a conviction remains omnipresent and the pressure around the former minister is only increasing, while we eagerly await the next events.
