Haitian President’s Assassination Has ‘All The Signs’ Of Mercenary Contract Killing, Says Marco Rubio

Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL), the top ranking Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations subcommittee that deals with the Western hemisphere, said the assassination of the Haitian president early Wednesday morning may have been carried out by foreign mercenaries.

“The cold blooded murder of the President of [Haiti] in his home, in the middle of the night, has all the signs of a carefully planned contract killing carried out by foreign mercenaries,” said Rubio. “Those behind this grotesque crime should be identified [and] brought to justice.”
