Switzerland To Return Funds Duvalier Stole To Haiti

Jean- Claude Duvalier

The Swiss government has moved to return stolen money stashed in their nation's banking system, by former Haitian President, Jean-Claude Duvalier. The $7,100,000 shall be returned tot he people of Haiti on a humanitarian basis, under a recently enacted Swiss law that goes into effect today.

This move is aided by the Haitian government's correct decision to arrest Duvalier on corruption charges and crimes against humanity, which occurred during his 15-year reign (1971-1986). That $6,000,000 could feed many people in Haiti, which suffered a deadly earthquake a year ago. The cost of food is steadily rising in the world, therefore every little bit helps. I look forward to seeing Haiti get back on its feet.

Woman Named As Suspect In Lebron James Pendant Theft

A 19-year-old woman in Ohio, Vaneisha Robinson, 19, claimed she bought a pendant in the shape of a jersey, belonging to former, Cleveland Cavalier basketball player, Lebron James, for a few cents at a flea market. Robinson subsequently had it appraised and was informed it is worth almost $10,000.

Fast-forward a few weeks and she is on television complaining that she is the prime suspect in the theft of the chain, belonging to the basketball player's marketing company. Robinson is claiming James' manager, Maverick O. Carter, verbally abused her in an attempt to get their property back, after she went public with the flea market story that is not an original one.

However, Robinson wishes to fight for the pendant that does not rightfully belong to her, stating she will file a lawsuit. She is now implicated in a felony and could face charges of dealing in stolen goods, as police have labeled her a suspect. She should save her money on litigation, in case she needs it for bail. The mere fact the police have named her as a suspect is a warning to give the pendant back.
