Jeremy Scahill, Nation correspondent and author of Blackwater: The Rise of the World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army, appears on The Rachel Maddow Show to discuss the recent influx of for-profit security contractors in Haiti. The show reports that one group, Evergreen, has already confirmed arrival. Following in Evergreen’s footsteps, All Pro Legal Investigations, registered the URL: Haiti-security.com. On the site they claim to offer, among other things, “high threat terminations.” Although All Pro Legal are “nobodies” in the security industry, Scahill explains that larger contractors have already begun hiring workers to deploy in Haiti. The question arises, who will oversee the groups in such a lawless environment? “Seems like the last thing Haitians need,” says Scahill, “[is] yet more unaccountable people with guns in their country.”
