Four men convicted in US federal court for conspiracy in assassination of Haitian President Jovenel Moise

Four men, Arcangel Pretel Ortiz, Antonio Intriago, Walter Veintemilla, and James Solages, were convicted on Friday in Miami federal court of conspiracy to kill Haitian President Jovenel Moise in 2021 and providing material support for the plot. Prosecutors established that south Florida served as a central hub for planning and funding the assassination, which involved hiring Colombian mercenaries. All four defendants face possible life sentences; a fifth defendant, Christian Emmanuel Sanon, will be tried separately.

The split, in one line

Coverage splits on the defendants' stated purpose: defense claimed they planned to serve an arrest warrant, while prosecution argued they hired mercenaries to kill. Outlets frame the core crime identically but differ on whether defense arguments merit narrative space.
