Boat with two dozen U.S.-bound Haitian migrants disappears at sea: "People are going missing and no one is paying attention"

They were told to dress totally in black and to leave cellphones and all identifying documents, including passports, behind.

The group of about two dozen Haitians, maybe more, departed on a small motor boat from the coast of the Dominican Republic headed to Puerto Rico, about 80 miles away across the treacherous Mona Passage.

That was in early March. And that's the last anyone heard of them.
