The Faber family of Belize is grappling with an unimaginable series of tragedies and bureaucratic hurdles as they attempt to lay two loved ones to rest. Just ten days after the brutal murder of Shaniele Faber, a mother of four whose dismembered body was discovered in a garbage drum, her 18-year-old son, Shamar Faber, succumbed to complications from a gunshot wound sustained in March. The family, already reeling from emotional devastation, now faces further distress due to delays in funeral arrangements. After receiving Shamar’s death certificate, they were abruptly instructed to return it for an autopsy, a decision that has postponed the funeral and added financial strain. Shamar’s aunt, Shawnette Tillett, expressed frustration over the hospital’s handling of the situation, citing a lack of communication and accountability. The family has already incurred significant funeral expenses and is urging the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital to expedite the process so they can proceed with the funerals. Hospital CEO Chandra Cansino has acknowledged the issue and promised to investigate further.
