A Florida jury has convicted four men of conspiracy in the 2021 assassination of Haitian President Jovenel Moïse. The convicted individuals, Arcangel Pretel Ortiz, Antonio Intriago, Walter Veintemilla, and James Solages, were found guilty of conspiring to kill or kidnap Moïse and providing material support for the plot. They were also convicted of violating the U.S. Neutrality Act and could face life sentences. The plot was allegedly planned and financed in South Florida, with the aim of replacing Moïse with a leader of the conspirators' choosing. The trial took place in Miami, while in Haiti, the situation remains unstable with increasing gang violence.
