Mason’s Wife Turns Herself Into Police
posted (August 8, 2016)
Melissa Ferguson, she's William Danny Mason's wife - and for two weeks now, police have been seeking her for questioning. Well, today she turned herself into Belmopan police in the company of her attorney Dickie Bradley.

This evening, we spoke with Bradley by phone, and he says that she has given them a statement. And now, the officers are in the process of combing through the evidence they have to test whether there are any inconsistencies between what she claims, and what other persons have told them in written statements:

Dickie Bradley - Attorney for Melissa Ferguson
"She has made contact with the police last week through myself saying that she wanted to come in and cooperate with authorities in relation to the investigation. Because of the hurricane, the officers had said that today would be a better day than that day last week. They knew that she was safely back in the country and they could get their hands on her whenever they wanted. So, the arrangement was so that she could go in and subject herself to interrogation and answer all questions and if they wanted, she was prepared to give a statement. All those things actually took place. She's been in custody for the past 6-7 hours being interrogated by officers Inspector Westby and Vasquez and the officers will no doubt spend some more hours going through that statement and the other statement that they have looking for any serious irregularities or discrepancies."

At this time, she is not being charged for any crime.
