What this episode covers
The Tonton Macoute were Francois “Papa Doc” Duvalier’s secret voodoo police, a private army who terrorized Haiti using psycho-religious warfare and random violence. Duvalier built his army from the most violent and psychopathic of the population, giving them free reign to rape and pillage under his protection. Their denim uniforms, straw hats and dark shades worn even at night have become a Haitian archetype for evil.
