4 Years Later, 3 Interdicted Cops Await Trial in High Court

A trio of policemen on interdiction and awaiting trial for willful oppression appeared before Justice Candace Nanton in the High Court where the case against them was further adjourned to April twenty-second when the matter will continue in a case management conference. The three officers, including Corporal Jason Shaw, Constable Leslie Martinez and Police Constable Anthony Viamill, are accused of coercing a man and a woman into performing sex while being videotaped.

The shocking incident took place in April 2020.  Viamill appeared in the company of attorney Hurl Hamilton, while Leslie and Shaw are said to be represented by attorney Richard ‘Dickie’ Bradley who was absent from the matter.  The cops were initially charged and arraigned in the Belize City Magistrate’s Court where they all pleaded not guilty and were offered bail in the sum of one thousand dollars each which they met.
