Al NATION CONNECTICUT MiamiHerald.com I THE MIAMI HERALD Abuse at school in Haiti alleged If A Colorado man who founded a home for needy children In Haiti has been accused of sexually abusing nine boys there. HARTFORD - (AP) - The founder of a school for poor children in Haiti bas been indicted on charges of sexually abusing nine boys there. alleg- edly threatening them with expulsion or withholding bene- fits iithey did not comply with his demands. U.S. Attorney Nora Dan. nehy announced Thursday that Douglas Perlitz, 39, founder of the Proje<:t Pierre Toussaint school in CapMHaitien, was indicted by a federal grand jury on numerous counts. Perlitz founded the school and raised money for its operation when he lived in Connecticut. "This defendant is alleged to have used his position of power to manipulate and sexually abuse vulnerable boys for nearly a decade," Dannehy said Perlitz was arrested at his home in Colorado on WednesM day, a day after the grand jury in Bridgeport, Conn., indicted him. A U.s. magistrate ordered him detained pending a hear~ ing Friday in federal court in Denver. The indictment lists seven counts of traveling outside of the United States with the intent to engage in sexual con. duct with minors and three counts of engaging in sexual conduct in foreign places with minors. Perlitz's lawyer, federal Public Defender Matthew Golla, did not immediately return a phone message Thurs. day" Authorities say Perlitz enticed children into sex acts by promising food,. shelter and items including cash, cell phones, electronics, shoes and clothing. Prosecutors say PerM litz would sometimes withhold benefits or threaten to expel the boys if they refused to have sexual relations. The indictment said Perlitz received funding from a reli. gious organization to found Project Pierre Toussaint in 1997. The program initially served mostly street children as young as 6 and later expanded to include a residenM tial program for high schoolM aged children. Children were offered meals, sports, class- room instruction and access to running water for baths, The indictment alleges that minors were sleeping in Per. litz's bedroom in a two.story house known as "Bel Air," When others questioned PerM litz about it, he tried to hide the sexual abuse by saying it was common in Haiti for children and adults to sleep together, the indictment alleges. Volunteers and staff mem. bers were scared to come for. ward with the allegations, the indictment says, The arrest should be a warning to child sex predators who think they can get away with victimizing children out. side the U.S., said John T. MorM ton, assistant secretary of the Department of Homeland Security for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Each count in the indict. ment carries up to 30 years in prison and a $250,000 erne. u.s. embassy in Port.au. Prince has set up a hot line for people to call with information pertinent to the investigation. .. ~.~ <r'l~} STAY AHEAD WITH THE MIAMI HERALD AND OUR MEDIA PARTNERS SOUTH FLORIDA ARTS BEAT, 1 P.M,: Learn the l!ff1IttI, NEWS AT 6 P,M,: How pricey designer clothing is latest cultural happenings, with host Ed Bell, WFOFl helping support a special afterschool program, WASHINGTON - (AP)- Astronomers have found the coldest spot in our solar system and it may be a little close for AP PIlOTO/WA :~~~. It's on our moon, right WNAR DISCOVERY: Some of the coldest temperatures in the NASA's new Lunar Recon- solar system were measured in the crater called Faustini. naissance Orbiter is making the first complete temperature map of the moon. It found that at the Pluto is at least a moon's south pole, it's colder than far away Pluto. The area is degree warmer even :.~~:..e:~ ~~at~:;e n~~~:~e~~ but is about 40 times an~I:;a~~r~~~i~~~ f:~r::r:~o:c fartherfrom the sun. heat," said David Paige, a Uni. versity of California, Los Ange- les, scientist who is part of the NASA team. "Right here in our own backyard are definitely the coldest things we've seen in real measurements." Temperatures there were measured at 391 degrees below zero. That's just 35 degrees higher than the lowest tempera. ture possible. Pluto is at least a degree warmer even though it is about 40 times farther from the sun. The coldest temperatures on the moon were usually in craters that were within bigger craters, hiding farther from the sun, Paige said. Three craters where the cold temperatures were noted were Faustini. Shoemaker and Haworth. And some of the coldest places are so remote and unexplored they don't even have names yet, he said Soon, the moon's south pole will slightly warm up with the change of seasons and the north pole will get chillier, he said. That ultra-cold temperature is important because it can trap volatile chemicals, such as water and methane, said NASA probe project scientist Richard Von. dralt. Trapped volatiles would give any future astronauts resources to mine and could help scientists understand more about the origin of the early solar system. he said. Tbe moon probe, only a week into its science mission, has also found lots of indications of hydrogen, which could indicate trapped ice below the moon's surface, Vondrak said. While NASA has been to the moon with astronauts and explored it many times decades ago, this is the first close.up look in about a decade and is focusing on the tantalizing south pole, where there is the best chance for hidden ice. "It's unexplored," Paige said. "Nobody's seen what it's like in these areas before at this resoluM tion." And the closer, NASA's instruments look at the craters, the more nuanced they look. "The moon is not just a bil~ liard ball with dimples," Paige said. "It's got interesting cracks and crevices."
