Keyren Tzib

Twenty-four-year old female coast guard officer, Keyren Tzib, remains behind bars tonight; she was taken to court this morning for a second time on criminal charges.  Tzib is on remand for the Manslaughter of her boyfriend, Thytis Blancaneaux. The violent incident occurred in July 2015 at the couple’s Lord’s Bank home. The two were hanging out with friends when a physical confrontation ended in the stabbing of Blancaneaux.  When police got the call at around two o’clock on July eighteenth, they found Blancaneaux dead and Tzib crying over his body. Today, in the presence of her attorney, Belize City Mayor, Darrell Bradley, Tzib was given a new court date of October fifteenth, 2015.  There was no request for bail and Bradley would only say that the family has asked him not to speak with the media at this time.
