It is impossible to include all that might be interesting in a one hour film. Here are some transcripts of interviews. Click on the pdf icon if you would like to read these transcripts.
Michèle Montas is an award-winning journalist. She began reporting at Radio Haiti Inter in the 1970s with her husband, Jean Domnique, who founded the radio station. Together the two practiced journalism «engagée» reporting regularly on peasants rights, political corruption, state-sponsored violence: subjects dangerous to cover in Haiti. Radio Haiti Inter was attacked 6 times from 1980 to 1994. Jean Domnique was killed by hired killers on April 3, 2000, 6 months before the Raboteau Trial began. While Montas learns more about who her husband's murderers were, there is no indication that they will someday be brought to trial. She currently lives in the US after threats against her and the assassination of her body guard led her to leave Haiti in 2003. |

He formerly worked at the International Lawyers Office (BAI) in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, where he has spent the last several years prosecuting crimes committed during the 1991-1994 coup. Among the cases he has prosecuted are those stemming from the 1994 Raboteau massacre in Gonaives. Concannon is a graduate of Georgetown University Law Center, and held a Brandeis International Fellowship in Human Rights, Intervention and International Law from 2001-2003.
