Haiti’s paramilitary gangs commit widespread and severe human rights atrocities to maintain their unprecedented power. Scripps News foreign correspondent Jason Bellini traveled to Port-au-Prince to expose the lived experiences of Haitians struggling to survive in an anarchic ganglandia. In a rare interview, four teenage boys, who recently escaped their gangs, explain in harrowing detail the methods by which the gang lords recruit and then convert them into cold-blooded killers. “Assignment Haiti: Descent Into Anarchy” captures the brutal reality of the Carribean country spiraling into an unmitigated humanitarian catastrophe.
