On Saturday morning, a guesthouse housekeeper found forty-year-old Allin Anthony Purtillo dead, covered by the hotel linen with his feet and hands bound with phone cord. Purtillo travelled from Independence to Belize City last Friday to officiate a softball game and checked into the Bayview Guesthouse on Baymen Avenue at about twelve forty-five p.m. It was not his first time at the hotel and staff would seem him with two guests. Police have been reviewing surveillance footage which captured two men arriving at the guesthouse as part of the investigations. News Five’s Duane Moody reports.
