Tonight, we return to a story that is not suitable for kids. So, if they are watching, either excuse them from the room or change the channel.

Last night, we showed you a very blurred version of three police officers coercing two individuals into performing a sexual act.

It's evidence that only exists because it was filmed and shared by the perpetrators.

And on Monday night when the vile video started making the Whatsapp rounds it was brought to the attention of Commissioner of Police Chester Williams.

Williams appeared viscerally disgusted this morning as he trudged out of the Racoon Street police station to answer to the press about the gross misconduct his officers have displayed at a time of national emergency when the department has been virtually handed free reins over Belizean society. Cherisse Halsall reports:

The Police department has consulted and sought advice from the DPP'S office on this matter. Commissioner Williams has also assigned ASP Martha Riess, the department's most senior expert in sexual cases, to quote: "take the investigation where it ought to be."
