A former Marine sergeant who traveled to his homeland of Haiti with firearms and a colonel’s rank to train the Haitian Army and become the nation’s president was found guilty of illegal firearms smuggling by a federal jury.
Starting in April 2019, Marine Sgt. Jacques Yves Sebastien Duroseau, 34, began making plans to return to Haiti, contacting a person in the country not identified in court documents about his plan.
The firearms instructor got a friend, identified only as “TH,†and a sergeant in the Marine Corps’ Individual Ready Reserve to doctor paperwork claiming he was a Marine colonel on orders to Port-au-Prince, Haiti. TH also purchased Duroseau an American Airlines airplane ticket from Coastal Carolina Regional Airport in New Bern, North Carolina, near Camp Lejeune, for Nov. 11, 2019 ,to Haiti.
