Investigations Continue into Frankel Double Homicide

Mark & Leticia Frankel

Last Friday, a gruesome find was made in a remote area off the John Smith Link Road in the Belize District. Mark and Leticia Frankel had been taken from their Sunset Park house, shot dead and their bodies dumped. Their GMC terrain SUV was also disposed of close by. When police visited their home, it had been ransacked. Today, police say that officers are out speaking with friends and neighbours to find out what really happened.

“Police are out in the area and we are questioning several persons to see what information we can get. I know that we had spoken to the family members to try to establish a motive and other things that we need to clear from them.”

“Was Frankel known to police? We found him in our archives.”

“I know that they have a report about him in San Pedro, but apart from that, there is nothing else that we can put to him.”
