Haitian Gang Demands Ransom for American Missionaries | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

A week has passed since an American missionary and her daughter were kidnapped by a criminal ransom gang in Haiti. The group is demanding $1 million for the release of the New Hampshire natives who were providing healthcare services in Port Au Prince. Lester Munson, Senior Fellow at the National Security Institute, joins us for more. He discusses the ongoing political instability, gang violence, and hunger that plague the small island nation and comments on how the U.S. can intervene in the increasing kidnapping problem. Given that Haiti is predominantly Catholic but most gangs practice voodoo, he also remarks on the possible link these ‘dark spiritual practices’ might play on their horrifying actions.
