Louverture threatened death for officers who tolerated laziness among laborers

Evidence

It ratcheted up the threats issued against those officers and administrators—like Moïse—who refused to enforce this decree assiduously. Any officer who tolerated laziness or vagrancy was an “enemy of the government”; any who “tolerated pillage and assassination” was to be executed; any individual who encouraged sedition would also be punished with death. — Dubois, Laurent, Avengers of the New World_ The Story of…, 883
