On December 20, 2012, British Belizean David Taylor, the man who is accused of outrageous acts of Pornographic exploitation of 4 boys on Placencia, was arraigned on 2 charges of aggravated assault on an indecent nature, and committing an unnatural crime for having sexual relations with a 13 year-old boy.
At the end of that arraignment, he was denied bail, and so when residents of Placencia got news that he was out, they became alarmed, and all sorts of rumors started flying around.
There was one rumor that he could have possibly left the country, but tonight, we can confirm that he is in the country, and more than that, he's complying with the courts.
It all started when he applied to the Supreme Court and got bail, but Placencia police were not notified, in fact, they believed that he was still on remand because they registered their strong objections to his bail in the first instance that he is a flight risk.
This evening, 7News contacted Inspector Mark Flowers, the Officer Commanding Placencia Police who told us that the police department responded to the community who were alarmed that Taylor was missing his adjournment dates in court, and so they started to search for him on Placencia.
Flowers told us that members of the community got their information wrong that Taylor was supposed to show up early last week, and that in fact he had an adjournment today.
Flowers told us that he was informed by the prosecutor that Taylor did indeed show up for that adjournment today, and he is complying with the requirements set out by the Supreme Court when his bail was granted.
So, at this time, Taylor is in Belize, and he is complying and submitting himself to the courts. Taylor - as we had earlier noted - is a Belizean by parentage because his mother is a Montejo who married a British soldier.
