Cop charged with carnal knowledge
Another policeman has been sent to prison, this time on remand in connection with charges involving sex with a minor. Twenty-five year old Gilroy Ramirez, formerly posted at the Caye Caulker station, was arraigned yesterday in Magistrate’s Court on two counts of carnal knowledge. A thirteen-year-old girl of that village alleges that on two occasions–in December 2004 and January of this year–she had sexual intercourse with Ramirez. Less than a week ago Ramirez resigned from the police force. He has been remanded without bail until his next court appearance on July thirteenth.
