The Infamous Basil Willis Accused of Targeting Grace Primary School

Basil Willis

Well-known criminal figure, Basil Willis recently beat the offense of committing an unnatural crime when the case was thrown out but today he was back in court accused of burglarizing a school.   Sometime between November twenty-third and twenty-fourth, the Grace Primary School kitchen located on Amara Avenue in Belize City was burglarized.   Stolen were a number of food items and utensils along with a blender. In addition to the charge of burglary, Willis was charged with handling stolen goods for items found in his possession.  It is alleged that he stole more than two hundred dollars in an assortment of items. In court, Willis pleaded not guilty, claiming he was at work when the burglary occurred.  Prosecutor in the case, Corporal Christopher Smith objected to bail on the grounds of the prevalence of the crime. He also told the court that the offense was committed upon a school and that the stolen items were found on Willis.  Senior Magistrate Sharon Frazer took all into account, upheld the objection to bail and remanded Willis to the Belize Central Prison until December twenty-second, 2016.
