4 year old rape victim no longer in school

On Tuesday’s newscast, the mother of the alleged four-year-old rape victim said she would seek out Cheryl-Lynn Vidal, the Director of Public Prosecution and anyone else who can help get the case started. She told News Five that she would visit both the D.P.P.’s office and also pay a courtesy call on the Minister of Police Dough Singh to see how the department can be instructed to provide the statement that should have been forwarded to the D.P.P.  But it’s not only paperwork, the emotional condition of the child has deteriorated and according to the mother, the child is not currently in school.

Voice of: Mother of 4 year old Rape Victim

“Every night ih jump up in her sleep and ih cry. As I get up, ih either want deh with me or my boyfriend; no one else.”

Jose Sanchez

“I know there were issues with the school giving your child to this individual who she says abused her. What’s the situation with the school?”

Voice of: Mother of 4 year old Rape Victim

“To be honest, one paper, one letter—my bad—they give me for my baby to deal with Doctor Grinage. That is the only thing they help me with. They haven’t even called and asked me how my baby deh di do. They noh even call and ask why your daughter is not attending school. I think that totally wrong. As a school, you should take part in what is happening to a child because that is the school you attend. My baby wants to go back to school, but not that school deh. So this di cost me wah lot right now. My baby noh even di go dah school.

Jose Sanchez

“So she may have to stay back another year?”

Voice of: Mother of 4 year old Rape Victim

“Yap. That dah weh wah happen right deh and it really upsetting.”

Jose Sanchez

“When it comes to counseling; were you able to get any counseling for her?”

Voice of: Mother of 4 year old Rape Victim

“Well right now, she dah noh wah person weh really disrespect you, but now she does and ih talk to you how ih want, ih try knock you back. But I have to work with ahn cause I know what happened to her. And this just turn my baby into wah monster. AS wah advice, I wouldn’t ah want see any mother go through this weh di happen right now because ih really rough fi di go through this.”

The four year old girl claimed that she was raped on September twenty-seventh. She was reportedly picked up at her preschool by someone she knew. A doctor certified that she was carnally known.

    We already know Doug Singh is worthless running the police, so the DPP needs to get out of her office and take over this investigation. A child rapist is walking the streets of Belize, and the people we empowered to protect us seem to be doing nothing competent to lock him up and protect our children.

    Oh, one more thing — all convicted rapists must be CASTRATED. It’s the only way to prevent repeat offences.

    I totally agree with Storm, on Castrating these …….. and their phedophilic behavior. Look like Belize men breathing phedophile air. Correction, SOme BELIZEAN MEN.
