His family does not buy that - and his sister says she believes that after he had called it a night - he was lured to the pier. Here's what she told us about her call with him at 10:00 last night:
Marie Jemmott Tzul, Sister of the deceased
"Even last night, the last time I spoke to him was 10pm and I told him to don't go out and he said no I am not going anywhere because I am tired, I just from fishing with Mr. Pani and so I am going to sleep. So when I got the news, I thought it was in the hotel."

"Do you know where he was staying and was he socializing last night?"
Marie Jemmott Tzul
"When he spoke to me, he was in his hotel room."
Jules Vasquez
"Which hotel?"
Marie Jemmott Tzul
"Really I do not remember the hotel at this point and I don't want to say anything that is untrue."
Jules Vasquez
"I know he went fishing yesterday, but what else has been doing later that evening?"
Marie Jemmott Tzul
"He was socializing I think with Mr. Pani and some other friend. I think he mentioned a name Pacheco or Patch or something like that, so they were drinking and having a good time. My brother loved life, he loved life. He had passion for his work. He did his work with integrity and that's the way he loved his family as well. My brother loved people, he would have a barbeque at home and sending the pictures or posting them up and invite friends and stuff like that - that's my brother."
The post mortem his sister shared with us this evening says Jemmoth died of a massive brain haemorrhage due to gunshot wounds to the head." She says the doctor concluded it was homicide. We await word from police.
