Who killed elderly Crooked Tree Resident, 76 year old Barry Blayney – who is originally from New Zealand. A number of persons have been taken in for questioning, but Belize District Rural Police still have no major leads.
His body was discovered yesterday afternoon in his house with his hands and feet bound, with a piece of cloth over his head, and his mouth taped up.
There were no signs of physical violence on his body, and one theory is that he may have been tied up by robbers, and because he has breathing problems, the tape on his mouth could have caused his death. But that's just a theory investigators have – and it's far from conclusive.
According to the residents, Blayney moved to Crooked Tree almost 10 years ago. Police have not been able to contact his family because there is no New Zealand Consular Representative in Belize.
