Still no motive for the murder of Cayo man

Story PictureIn the other Easter murder, San Ignacio police are still trying to put their hands on a motive and a suspect in the shooting murder of fifty-three year old Felix Cocom. Cocom’s body was discovered on his farm in the Lower Barton Creek area, some five miles off the Western Highway in Blackman Eddy, Cayo District on Monday afternoon. And when they found him he had been dead for at least a day. Police also suspect Cocom was killed elsewhere and his body was taken and dumped on his farm. Police found no bloodstains or disturbed grass at the scene to determine that there was a struggle between Cocom and his killer. And while police say Cocom had developed some bad habits in order to sustain a drug addiction, on Tuesday his mother told News Five that has suspicions on who the culprits may be since she knows who has been preying on his farm animals.
