An appellate judge on Friday released a recommendation that nine people be charged for their role in the killing. The same report alleged that the crime's mastermind is a former lawmaker named Mirlande Liberus Pavert.
Pavert is an ex-senator who belonged to the political party of two-time President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Family Lavalas. Others named in the report also had ties to the party.
