Description: Study of the criminal proceeding against Jean-Claude Duvalier upon his return to Haiti in 2011. Jean-Claude Duvalier (1951), nicknamed "Baby Doc", was the President of Haiti from 1971 until his overthrow by a popular uprising in 1986. He succeeded his dictator father, François "Papa Doc" Duvalier, as the ruler of Haiti upon his father's death in 1971. He was famous for his corruption and led a notoriously lavish lifestyle while poverty among his people remained the most widespread for any country in the Americas.
