Barrow Broke the Law The Belize Times news archive shows that in 2019, a man was imprisoned for four months after he was caught shoplifting one can of corned beef, with a cost of approximately $4.75. That man was the sole provider for his child, but he broke the law and was sent to the Belize Central Prison because when you are a normal person in Belize, you are punished for breaking the law. Like his best friend Gaspar Vega, the Prime Minister of this country does not feel that he is a normal person in Belize. He believes that he is above the law. He believes that he can
break the law with impunity. But he was caught, and now the whole country knows that Barrow is no better than Vega caught with his fingers in the cookie jar. In fact, Barrow is much worse, because he spent money that was not his – hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars – without getting permission from Parliament to spend it. He broke the law.
