Following the resignation on July 22, 2020 of Jacques Lafontant the Government Commissioner in Port-au-Prince https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-31350-haiti-flash-the-government-commissioner-me-lafontant-resigns.html , Rockefeller Vincent, the New Minister of Justice appointed Thursday 23 as Chargé ai of the Prosecutor's Office of Port-au-Prince Me Souvenir Jenty pending the appointment of a new Government Commissioner

"Me Souvenir Jenty

Substitute of the Government Commissioner

Near the Court of First Instance

From Port-au-Prince-

Magistrate,

I have the advantage of informing you that I have chosen you as the Public Prosecutor at the Court of First Instance of Port-au-Prince

Best regards

Rockefeller Vincent

Minister."

However, a few hours later, Me Jenty was dismissed, the Prime Minister Joseph Jouthe having opposed this appointment after having learned of a compromising document submitted by human rights organizations, which demonstrate the involvement of Me Jenty in several murky and unorthodox acts.
