Web info about Frank Romain:
"In a few human rights cases, criminal investigations were commenced. Arrest warrants were issued for Franck Romain, the former mayor of Port-au-Prince who was widely believed to have masterminded the 1988 St. Jean Bosco massacre, and Gen. Williams Regala, the defense minister under the CNG and Namphy governments.
Both fled the country before they could be arrested.
... On August 25, 1995, one of over fifteen implicated by MICIVIH in carrying out the killing, attache Gerard "Zimbabwe" Gustave, was convicted of Izmery's assassination and sentenced to life imprisonment.
The next month, seven others were convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment in absentia for the Izmery murder, including former Port-au-Prince police chief Col. Michel Francois, the former commander of the police's Anti-Gang Service, Capt.Joanis Jackson, and the second-ranking leader of FRAPH, Louis Jodel Chamblain.
In April 1996, Francois fled the Dominican Republic for exile in Honduras, where, despite his notorious human rights record, the Honduran government granted him political asylum.
Franck Romain, another high-profile Haitian human rights abuser, also fled the Dominican Republic for political asylum in Honduras.
Haitian and U.S. government sources concurred in stating that, while Francois and Romain escaped the Haitian justice system, the Haitian government favored the move to distance itself from an imposing threat to stability.
However, Haiti's long-term stability would be better served by the prosecution and punishment of Francois, Romain, and other notorious human rights violators who have sought exile in other countries. (info) For more click on a letter
