Minor arrested at funeral and charged with friend’s murder
One the night of April eighth, two men were gunned down in the dangerous Belize City streets and today a minor was charged in connection with one of those murders. Renan Reneau was shot several times to the chest by a lone gunman while he was talking to his girlfriend in a yard at the corner of Supal Street and Kut Avenue. The seventeen year old minor was arrested at Reneau’s funeral and today appeared in the Family Court before Magistrate Alberta Perez on the charge of Murder. But he maintains that he is innocent and told police that Reneau was his friend. Magistrate Perez remanded the accused teen to boot camp at the Hattieville Prison.
It’s such a shame what these kids are doing?I still can’t believe what i am reading.After this kid was accused of killing Reneau he still had the audacity to attend this young man’s funeral.What have us as Belizeans become.I still can’t believe that this is happening in our Jewel.What a cold blooded fool.
Mothers need to get back to hugging and nurturing their male children. A boy child who is given love and nurtured is less likely to be so cold and calous to kill a friend and then attend the funeral to look at his handy work. Come on Belizean women become mothers again.
Al I am not too in agreement with you about mothers need to hug their male children. The motehrs are doing that they have being doing that from the time that child was born, its the fathers you have to talk to. They are the ones that need to step up and take responsibilty. Some dad feel like its not right for they young sons to be kiss by there dads. Well a lot of the youth don’t have a dad around to be hug or kiss. Belize father need to become real fathers. What the kids need is Church.
We are living in the last days…. We all need to look to the hills, God help us all….
if it was this young man who indeed killed his “friend” then i must say that it is something sad but at the same time not something new…nowadays youths got to be careful whom they refer to as friends and like d song goes…”watch yo friends weh yo smoke wit n run joke with”…next thing, why is it that police never show d faces of minors who commit these crimes? the majority of recent crimes are being committed by minors n if on the street one would never know if he/she is in d vicinity of a cold murderer…
Belize:I agree with what you said but dah kiss thing fe wah young man i think you the tek it a little bit to far.
Maud: Totally in agreement with you.
things are more worst dan i taught, hmmm, tings bad, madaz… aye yung youths, stop the killing, but the bad thing is dat i bet they dont even c news, how mothers feel, i bet they dont even know this website, they dont even read, open a program for the youths,
