Protesters picket Clinton Foundation over alleged misuse of Haiti relief funds


More than $10 billion was donated to rebuild Haiti after Haiti's 2010 earthquake, some of it to the Clinton Foundation, the charitable organization sponsored by former President Bill Clinton and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton. But protesters at the Foundation's Harlem offices say the money was wildly mismanaged and did not provide the relief Haitians desperately needed.
"Only 900 homes were built, and they were not even built in the area where the earthquake took place," said Ricot Dupuy of Radio Soleil. "So much inconsistency, so much irregularity." Watch a news report on the protests below. --Bonnie Kristian
