Body found in Scotland Halfmoon still unidentified

On Wednesday News Five broke the story about a body that was found in the Belize River Valley.  The discovery was made around four in the evening in an overgrown area of Scotland Half Moon Village. The residents of the village have not reported anyone missing and do not believe the dead person was a member of their community. The man has still not been identified although a family has been contacted about the identity of the man. As we told you, the body of the man was found by the village chairperson, Olivia Rhaburn.  Rhaburn, in the company of her sons, was walking along the road to visit a friend about a mile into the bushes when they made the gruesome discovery.

    really sad case…seems like people just get killed and dumped easily and no one is able to identify the victim…sad…hopefully Police checks their files on missing persons.

    Come on Belize PD what happen to forensics?Wasn’t the fake cop Wilson a crime technician maybe you guys need to give him a plea bargain and have him do some forensic work on the unidentified body.

    this is concerning to all communities, please report any suspicious acts before we start to find bodies around since dumping of dead bodies of unknowns seems to be getting constant now. if he’s not a belizean then most likely he’s a immigrant with no papers, no families, or little friends which makes cases like this very hard to come up with a final identification.

    on Aug 5, 2010 a body was found in Scotland Half moon identified as Orion P Vernon – his murder mystery is one tht involves the police department and a false autopsy report. A body tht would not be released to his mother unless the body was cremated and a death certificate tht not done until the cremation. No answers but a whole lot of lies and run arounds on the truth. its shameful, utterly shameful. The news needs to get involved because the justice system is corrupt and the truth needs to come out. There is more to the story and more of the truth will be released!!!
