Valley Of Peace Principal Remains Under Scrutiny
posted (June 26, 2017)
Police are investigating another complaint against Monsignor Romero Primary School Principal Johnny Valencia. As we told you he has been charged for sexual assault in relation to the 13 year old student's complaint. But another girl has come forward to say she too had a similar experience with Valencia. Police say as soon as they get more information on this other case other charges will be brought against Valencia.

Sr. Supt. Howell Gillett, OC, Belmopan
"Well he was charged and the media reported it that he was charged for one count of sexual assault upon one child and then following that, we got at least another report of a similar nature. But we were waiting for one specific and important thing to be carried out before we could prefer another charge against him. But if that is forthcoming then yes we will lay another charge against him."

We will keep following this evolving case.
