A cloud of uncertainty hangs over Camalote Village, Belize, as police investigators work to unravel the contradictory circumstances surrounding the fatal shooting of 20-year-old Andy Suazo on Tuesday afternoon. The young call center employee’s sudden death has left his mother, Andrea Azueta, grappling with profound grief while desperately seeking answers about her son’s final moments.
According to authorities, the central mystery revolves around whether Suazo’s gunshot wound was self-inflicted or resulted from criminal activity. The investigation continues as conflicting narratives emerge from the scene where Suazo was socializing before his death.
In an emotional interview, Azueta recounted her son’s final hours, describing how he had unexpectedly called to say he would spend the night with her—an unusual occurrence that now carries haunting significance. The family had spent the morning together purchasing produce and preparing lunch, including Suazo’s favorite fish dish, before he briefly left with promises to return for the meal.
Suazo, a 2023 high school graduate described by his mother as an ‘overachiever,’ had shown particular promise in music composition and recording. His original song entitled ‘Momma,’ which detailed their family’s struggles and resilience, has become a painful reminder of his unrealized potential and the dreams that died with him.
While many grieving families demand justice, Azueta’s plea is singularly focused on truth. ‘All mothers will get up here and say they want justice. I don’t want justice. All I want is the truth,’ she stated, emphasizing her need for closure regardless of the investigation’s outcome.
The Belize Police Department continues to piece together the events leading to Suazo’s death as the community mourns the loss of a young man remembered for his bright future and musical talents.
