Caye caretaker charged with murder
Forty-nine year old Robert Moore, a U.S. citizen detained last Thursday after he fatally shot a man and wounded his common-law wife, has been charged with murder. Moore, the resident caretaker of Frank’s Caye claims to have acted in self defence after the couple, Paul Westby and Dorla Martin, trespassed on the caye and attacked him. Police have evidence of a different scenario, however, and decided to press charges in Punta Gorda Magistrate’s Court. Martin remains in serious but stable condition at the K.H.M.H.
