And this triple murder shook the wider Belmopan community.
This afternoon, with some effort, we spoke with Area Representative Oscar Mira to comment on the case. He said the condition and sentence this is proof that the police department is working:
Oscar Mira, Minister of Home Affairs
"It is one of those cases that we have been following. In fact, the whole country has been following. I think that justice has been served. I believe that I must commend the Police Department for a very good investigation. And that's what we do. The Police Department has many investigations that are happening. And when an investigation is done properly, when the prosecution is done properly, then we get convictions. And that is what we, as a Police Department, along with the other stakeholders, are doing. It gives us closure. It does not bring us our loved ones back. But it does give us closure. It does give us justice. And we believe that, as a Police Department, we are going to do everything possible to continue those investigations that are open right now. And to make sure that we have arrests and that we have prosecution, proper prosecution, and eventually get a conviction."
