Money grabbing liars.

Duvalier, 59, made the trip just before a Swiss law that could entitle him to at least $4.6 million takes effect on Feb. 1. To collect the funds, he would have to show Haitian authorities aren’t interested in prosecuting him.

Duvalier’s comments fell short of an outright apology to those who endured his brutal and allegedly corrupt rule from 1971 to 1986, when a popular uprising forced him to flee.

“I also take this opportunity to express once more my deep sadness at the place of my countrymen … who have suffered under my government,” said Duvalier, sometimes slurring his words.

He said he came to commemorate the victims of the devastating earthquake and “show solidarity” with his fellow Haitians.
