Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines human rights violations committed within Port-au-Prince National Penitentiary in Haiti. The author, an enlisted man, was part of a 90's American-led force that intervened in Haiti and was shocked by the conditions prisoners were living in. Despite orders from his superiors not to intervene, he went public with the abuses he witnessed, actions for which he now faces a court-martial. The author argues that the military should have acted sooner to address the situation and that there needs to be greater accountability for human rights violations committed in conflict zones. Ultimately, the book is a powerful indictment of the failure of the international community to protect human rights during times of war and occupation.
