Reward grows for killer of journalist

No arrests have yet been made in the brutal stabbing murder of journalist Richard Hulse, but today his family added three thousand dollars to the growing reward being offered for information on the case. The new funds will be added to the five thousand put up by the Belize Independent Media Association and one thousand by Crimestoppers. The total of nine thousand dollars will be paid to the provider of information which leads to the arrest and charging of a murder suspect. As in all cases administered by Crimestoppers, the identity of the tipster will be kept strictly confidential and the reward money will be distributed through a bank, based only on a code number, not a name. That Crimestoppers hotline number is 0-800-922-8477.
