Haiti's Father Gerry thanks Flashpoints Radio supporters

Listen to the January 30 broadcast

Flashpoints was able to get an exclusive interview with Father Gerard Jean-Juste at the Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami. His doctors want to try and keep Fr. Gerry quiet so they can work on his recovery.

Here's Jean-Juste's words from that very brief interview:

Hello....Hey, Dennis! Yeah, I remember you, Dennis...Oh, oh, It was a real trap. It was a real trap, but...it's true that I've come out in pieces now. The physicians are trying to get the pieces together...Yeah... But the doctor has forbidden me, categorically, and as you may see, my voice is not the same yet. And, if you want a minute, you know, I can't refuse that...Yeah...Okay...

This is a great moment of my life, where I particularly want to thank Flashpoints, particularly you, Dennis, and so many of your listeners, audience people, who have written letters, keep the pressure on, the whole California I should say that. So right now, thanks to the help of the US officials who came out strong. And they really get me out of jail and bring me to the US for medical care. And now, at this great hospital where I am. And everyone, the whole staff of physicians, nurses, workers, they are all taking good care of me. And also I lost part of my voice.. my voice is so...I just want to say hello because, you know, that friendship, that brotherhood. And I cannot pass the day without telling you once more "Congratulations." This is the victory of all of us. Justice lovers. Freedom lovers. Peace lovers. Thank you very much my brother. And also I want to thank all my brothers and sisters in the audience...

Thank you. Thank you very much. Bye. God Bless!
