Man pleads guilty to Attempted Murder of GF’s nephew

Francis Ramos

Last week, ten Belizeans were deported from the U.S. after completing their sentences for crimes committed in that country. Another deportee is currently facing time behind bars for crimes in Belize. After being deported to Belize thirty-nine year old Francis Ramos, had lived with the aunt of thirty-three year old Michael Young.  That bond between Ramos and Young’s family came to an end on May fourteen, 2011. Both men were inside the Ramos family residence when Young stabbed him multiple times. The prosecutor, Leeroy Banner had called four witnesses, including Young, who survived the incident. The attack was also witnessed by Young’s relatives, including time including a ten year old child who also testified in court.   After Young identified his attacker, Ramos changed his plea to guilty.  Because he had spared the court valuable time by pleading guilty, Justice Troadio Gonzalez sentenced Ramos to seven years in prison.
