    Murder, attempted murder & assault not to mention breaking & entering & violating a restraining order should get this rabid dog, life at minimum. If he is this vicious at 21, how much will he cost the society in unpaid medical bills after he assaults the next woman who refuses to be bullied. We have to teach our sons that they cannot beat a woman into submission & wearing a condom could have saved him a heap of trouble.

  4. bla loverkelly says:

    he is only 21 think about that she should have not have a 40yrs old man in her bed anyway

  5. Bold says:

    No mercy on him….killed his own unborn child. Should charge him for Murder and done.

  6. OriginalWoman says:

    @ bla loverkelly ARE YOU SERIOUS??? YOU SOUND LIKE AN IDIOT!!! YOU SHOULD BE LOCKED UP WITH THIS MURDERER FOR MAKING THE ABOVE COMMENT…..

  7. cindy says:

    He should be charged. it tii much with criminals getting away. and if she had another man well maybe he is more responsible. Age doesnt matter in a relationship.

  8. Progressive Woman says:

    Bla loverkelly — are you trying to justify this gruesome event? You sick, sick person! Please get help.

None.

    Look belizeanpride…..if dat is wat dey do inna da statez den keep it there nuh tri coh bring da … yah…….unu da d real criminal suh stap wid unu racisizm

  11. True says:

    Sounds like he acted in a moment of rage…..we have to be sensitive to ppls feelings…..he probably was not thinking correct at the moment….which does not justify his actions but at the same time I can’t begin to imagine what he must be feeling for his woman to leave him for an older man…..we don’t know both sides of the story

  12. Progressive Woman says:

    Emily, so what! Her supposed infidelity doesn’t justify the violence. You need to let that sink in your head!

  13. luo says:

    so sad … honest we nee to start teaching these people to respect each other and love each other….it got to start somewhere

  14. Anastacia says:

    Nothing she did or could have done warrants such a violent reaction. We must all learn to appreciate the fact that we do not own our partners. We have no right to inflict violence on someone else. True, what she did was unbecoming of a woman, but, who are we to judge her? Both him and her and her new men acted irresponsibly and at the end of the day, an innocent child lost its life. It is extremely sad… there is no justification… none.

  15. jojo says:

    Anyone saying or agreeing with that dead beat murder is as sick as he is. No one deserve what she is going through. He should have accept the woman don’t want him and disappear. A man doesn’t own a woman and vice versa. If he/she wants to be with someone else you should let them go. Your parthner is not your possession.

  16. macal rivera says:

    hang this ………., he deserve to die!!!
    I hope she no go back with him when things get better

  17. Mr.Diamond100 says:

    Too many violent acts going on! I don’t know the full story and what exactly caused each person to act and respond the way they did, but violence is never an option! Love & Peace. God Bless!

  18. Belizeangrl says:

    wow.. I’m so shocked that there are people justifying or understanding what this criminal did to his unborn child. Are we really saying that its ok to stab someone , especially a pregnant someone because you are angry or emotional at the time.?This woman lost her baby but somehow you’re still occupying yourself by calling her dumb. I pray that God can impart some wisdom on you ignorant people…because if you think this violence is warranted , that means you are no different and are capable of doing the same

  19. emily says:

    Progressive woman. I can tell you is. The same type of woman that have know respect for your body or ur kids u should b ashame for her to know she layin up with a 70yr old man and pregnant for another that know kind of example to set if you have little girls at home I did not say he was rite for what he did. She need to keep her legs close.

  20. nnz says:

    wateva b d case dis man had no right to kill and wound wid intention to kill. he shud punish. hope we ALL learned a lesson.

  21. Get real Emily! says:

    Emily, what happened here was one of the most gruesome murders! A BABY WAS STABBED TO DEATH INSIDE THE SAFETY OF HIS MOTHER’S WOMB! Get off your moral high ground and quit babbling about who this woman was shacking up with. That’s the least important part of this whole sick act. Lets try to stick to what’s important here. BELIZE is in serious trouble: FIRST WORLD CRIMES WITH LESS THAN THIRD WORLD RESOURCES!

  22. CONCERNED says:

    Bla loverkelly & Emily, are you guys lack of understanding, narrow minded or jus imprudent? Regardless, of what she did whether it was cheating, sleeping in a bed with another individual or entertaining another man… it doesn’t mean she was sexually involved with that person. Damn! My Belizean people… you are so quick to judge and bring each other down. How dear you justify what he did…. Only she knows what she was enduring with the Jealous young man. FYI “Jealousy is indeed a poor medium to secure love, but it is a secure medium to destroy one’s self-respect. For jealous people, like crack-fiends, stoop to the lowest level and in the end inspire only disgust and loathing. May God be with him when Judgment day comes… ~Tee

  23. Progressive Woman says:

    And even if she was sexually involved with the other person, that doesn’t justify what the 21-year old man did to her!

  24. CONCERNED says:

    But jealous souls will not be answered so;
    They are not ever jealous for the cause,
    But jealous for they’re jealous. It is a monster
    Begot upon itself, born on itself. … People do not judge! You never know what shoe you may walk in some day. May God be with her and hope she has a safe recovery. Ask to the young man… may he ask God for forgiveness as he is confined in his cell at Kolbe. Perhaps he matures there. It’s sad! jus sad! ~Tee
