“Easy Glen” Committed to Stand Trial for Murder

Goldburn Adolphus, known as “Easy Glen,” will stand trial in the High Court for the murder of forty-two-year-old school warden Shaniele Faber. The Chief Magistrate committed Adolphus to the January 2027 High Court session following a preliminary inquiry in Court Number One. Prosecutors submitted statements from sixteen police and civilian witnesses, along with documentary and physical evidence. Adolphus told the court that he plans to call four alibi witnesses, including two men and two women. But the hearing also exposed a dispute over his legal representation. Adolphus complained that he had to face the preliminary inquiry alone, even though his aunt allegedly paid attorney Norman Rodriguez twelve hundred dollars to represent him. Rodriguez informed the court by letter that he no longer represented Adolphus, saying Adolphus had indicated that he would find another attorney. Rodriguez later told reporters that he received only eight hundred dollars and that Adolphus said his aunt would handle the remaining arrangements. Adolphus says he now intends to seek help from attorney Richard “Dickie” Bradley and file a complaint with the Bar Association. Police charged Adolphus with murder on October sixth, 2025. They allege that Faber, a mother of four, was killed sometime between October second and fourth. A bottle collector found Faber’s body inside a blue drum in Belize City. Police later recovered a machete and suspected blood from a building, while surveillance footage allegedly led investigators to Adolphus. He remains behind bars awaiting trial.
