Definitely a Haitian Brown Phormictopus Cancerides female. Can be very aggressive and territorial, has Urticating hairs on abdomen which can cause extreme irritation and can be "thrown" by the spider when threatened or even when disturbed by brushing hind legs across abdomen and flicking the hairs in the air YOU DON'T WANT TO GET ANY IN YOUR EYES. Handle this spider at your own risk, they have very large poison glands and fangs up to 15mm long which can pierce leather gloves. Poison may only be as bad as a bee sting for some people but others are allergic to it and can go into Anaphallactic Shock (very unpleaseant).
I have 4 of these at home (2 Male 2 Female) and have never been bitten but I treat them with great respect as they can be unpredictable. I am also one of the allergic types ! If you want some pics get in touch.
