Mason Back to Court With Senior Security Detail
posted (February 8, 2019)

There was a lot of excitement and a heavy GSU security presence at the Belmopan Courthouse on Wednesday.  It was all for William Danny Mason - the high profile murder and kidnapping suspect.

As his attorney explained, it was a bit of an anticlimax since he was only there for case management which was adjourned:

Richard "Dickie" Bradley
"Mason brought down under heavy security in relation to 2 matters. You know that Mr. William Danny Mason aka other nomenclatures and the other persons, they are not accomplices because they are all charged jointly in the matter for the murder of Pastor Lu and in that matter what is referred to case management was to continue today. Their attorneys Herbert Panton had sent a message to the court to ask for adjournment of the matter so the judge granted that request. So the case management which is to be completed before you can have a trial will take place on another date, the 15th of February of my memory is correct."

We’ll tell you what happens at the next court date on February 15th.



Outage Extended

And there’s worse news for customers along the Phillip Goldson and George Price Highways in the Belize District at this hour. A power outage that’s been going from 8:00 this morning has been extended to 10:00pm due to broken pole caused by an excavator in the new airport road construction area.

But, on the upside, news reaching us at this hour says power has been restored to some areas and population centers like Ladyville.
