Also in court today, was Linda Gillett, Laddie's Biological mother. She's attended every session of the proceedings starting in Dangriga, and now in the city.
She exited the court visibly upset by the suggestion that a shot in the air fired as a warning could have possibly ended her son's life.
Here's what she told us about what Justice for Laddie would look like to her:
Linda Gillett, Laddie's Biological Mother
"Deal with him and find him guilty and then maybe some other police that like to brutalize people's children and shoot people picking like they are birds and those things there, maybe if they deal with him and put a stoppage to it with him then maybe the rest might think to just go and shoot people picking, how they feel like because the way how I see it the doctor, what the doctor said I go by. What the doctor said too I really agree with the doctor because the doctor won't lie, the doctor said there is nowhere far, nowhere further than 2 feet my son got shot in his back so I would say that is brutalized murder."
Again, Delivery of Judgement in the case of manslaughter against Kareem Martinez will be delivered on April 21st in Belmopan.
