Haitians Skeptical Over Kenya’s Police Offer

HAITI – Haitians are expressing skepticism over an offer by Kenya to lead an international police force aimed at combatting the gang violence in Haiti.

They say the sexual abuse and a devastating cholera outbreak that have accompanied foreign forces in past decades don’t inspire much trust.

An elementary school teacher, told Associated Press while past international interventions have damaged Haiti, their abuses don’t compare to the brutality of gangs, which kidnap her students and force parents to pay hefty ransoms.
