And in our last exchange with COMPOL Williams, we pressed him about the theft of 250 thousand dollars in cash in Belmopan that police suspect may never have happened.
Here's what he told us about the elderly men who claim that rogue cops stole the hundreds of thousands of dollars in a duffle bag that was inside their home.
Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police
"We have looked that investigation very carefully and it is extremely sketchy, um, to be able to say if in fact the incident did occur. There are several factors that negates the allegations made by the two senior citizens and I would not want to sound negative because at this time we are still looking at it with a view to ascertain if in fact it occurred and so I will just leave it at that for now and I had tasked investigators to do certain things that may be able to help us to conclusively determine if in fact it occurred and once that which I had told them to do has been done then we can give the media an update to see where we are with it."
And while the COMPOL had alluded to charges for the Maya Mopan residents should their claims prove false, he's since reneged on that and instead expects they'll get a stern talking to and nothing more.
