But one video which the minister had seen was the one posted by the Hot Off The Press online news site on Friday.
It depicts two women involved in a rape allegation against a UDP attorney - and, basically, proceeds to victim shame and disparage them.
Today, the Home Affairs Minister said he finds the report despicable:
Kareem Musa, Minister of Home Affairs
"I don't want to acknowledge Hot Off the Press as a legitimate media house and I'm sure that other media houses can look to this particular social media platform, sorry, media house as carrying out very despicable actions by showing imagery and video footage from the nightclub that night that really did not go to prove anything at all."
"And then to add further insult to injury to make a commentary about how that in some way exonerates the individual. I just find it to be downright unacceptable and despicable. I had a discussion just now over at National Security Council about establishing regulations for the media."
"There has to be some control because we know every single day a new media outlet pops up online with no sort of accountability or transparency to see who are the actors behind these websites, behind these social media pages."
"And we don't know whether these are legitimate media houses. And so there has to be some action taken by the Belize Broadcasting Authority to put in place legislation and regulations to ensure that we can get rid of these types of social media pages that are using it like you rightly pointed out for the totally wrong purposes, undermining the police work and also trying to further the personal agenda of one individual."
The complaint alleging rape was made more than a week ago - but there has not been any directive to press charges - reportedly due to inconsistencies in the complaint.
