Appointed to head the prosecution of Jacmel Nov. 26, 2010, two days before the election, the government commissioner Vladimir Me Yayo was fired in less than 90 days (November 26, 2010 to February 18, 2011). He had succeeded Mr. Mirlande Dafina. The latter had spent about six months in the metropolis Sud'Est. In less than three years, the floor of Jacmel had seven members from the Government, three are dead: Ronald Jean, and Pierre Jeudy Zhores Junior Constant.
During installation, the former Government Commissioner Yayo had to say: "I will only compass for the law and my conscience, supreme leader of any judge who wants honest and courageous. I will lead with all the energy and determination, the policy defined by the Minister of Justice and Public Safety who is to fight against prolonged pretrial detention, the scourge of corruption fouled our judicial system to improve the functioning of the judiciary. "
I thought he could make Yayo Vladimir once more his knowledge and expertise to the advancement of justice in his country. So did he contribute to improving the quality of justice that gives Jacmel. Perhaps his method of work was not suited to the medium in which he played for about 80 days.
Yayo I entered the Judiciary in June 1995 as a justice of the peace holds in Cité Soleil, after a competition organized by the Ministry of Justice, he was out second winner. In February 1996 he was transferred in the same way in the town of Petion-Ville. Its capacity, performance aiding, he was promoted to deputy commissioner of the Government to the Court of First Instance of Port-au-Prince in 2005.
During his visit to the prosecution, he chaired the Committee of detention and monitoring with the office of education. He was a member of the Committee overseeing the peace courts, the team has ensured the ongoing replacement of flooring weekends and after office hours. He thus enjoys a wide experience he had to serve the people of Jacmel. Of course with the continuing support of all authorities in the metropolis of South-East especially the Dean of the trial court, head of the court, the magistrates, judges sitting and standing, the justices and the Haitian National Police Haiti. Yayo had happened to me in the jurisdiction of Jacmel with its full fury. He believed that the synergy of actions would enable it to better meet the aspirations of people still waiting for a sound and equitable distribution of justice.
To join the talk on his arrival in Jacmel, the former commissioner of the government had provoked a general meeting of judges. Meeting at which he had shown the need for judges to apply the law of 6 May 1927 on the immediate trial of detainees. Proposal that was unanimously accepted and legal consequences have been given.
In this same vein, it was recognized that a hearing without assistance of criminal jury be held every Friday. Thus the court could produce twelve Jacmel criminal hearings and eight criminal hearings sitting without a jury assistance. This has helped significantly reduce the amount of prolonged pretrial detention. Of 345 inmates at the prison in Jacmel, in less than three months, the number was reduced to 325, said Mr. Vladimir Yayo, a former government commissioner this spring.
He said the stock of its achievements in so short a time is positive: 49 final indictments, 15 indictments drawn up under his administration. While the court made for the previous year (2010), 109 orders.
"Working at the office of Jacmel was not easy. I have not had the cooperation of my colleagues waited very frustrated that the Director of Public Prosecutions always comes from another city. They would not work because I wanted to control everything. This attitude had led to a suspension of work conditional on payment of 15 months salary arrears. In spite of everything, with my skills, I managed only to operate the institution of prosecution, "said Mr. Yayo.
"But over daily, relations deteriorated. Surrogates wanted to do as they please. But they turned more to me after I said it was unacceptable that a government deputy commissioner of the peace court assists a person whose car was confiscated by police to a marijuana. That is that the same prosecutor had taken steps to prosecution for the return of the vehicle owner, "revealed Mr. Yayo. The former commissioner said he also conflict with another substitute. This is a lady who has been named in a dossier of habeas corpus. Everyone was amazed at her behavior: She voluntarily gave a copy of the writ by a lawyer magistrate who, under its authority, has issued a warrant against the lawyer. A situation that had triggered a protest from the members of the bar of Jacmel. This movement was still paralyzed and paralyzing activities of Jacmel in court, reported the former Chief Public Prosecutor Vladimir Yayo.
"The feeling of having unfinished is the fact that I have not had time to convey to the Court of Cassation cases of some detainees who were tried between 2005 and 2010, sentenced to various terms (forced labor for life, 15 years, 10 years, 8 years) and who exercised an appeal, while their cases are still in the court of first instance of Jacmel. I must say that I did not also time to put the necessary structures to facilitate the smooth functioning of justice. It seems to Jacmel, there is another law in another country, "concluded Mr. Vladimir Yayo.
It is unfortunate that the community has not benefited Jacmelienne seriousness, dynamism, competence of the former government commissioner, dismissed for administrative reasons 80 days after his appointment!
