By Breaking Belize News Staff: A 52-year-old Belize City taxi operator, Herbert Garreth Taylor, is facing a new sexual assault charge after an 18-year-old woman accused him of touching and kissing her without her consent.
Taylor, a resident of the Saint Martin de Porres area, appeared in the Belize City Magistrate’s Court on Monday, November 9, where he pleaded not guilty to the charge.
The allegation stems from an incident on November 5, 2026, during which Taylor allegedly touched the young woman inappropriately before kissing her without her consent.
The prosecution raised concerns about a previous sexual assault charge against Taylor but did not object to bail after it was established that the earlier charge had been dismissed.
As previously reported by Breaking Belize News, Taylor was arraigned in October 2025 after another woman accused him of inappropriately touching her leg during a taxi drop-off on September 9, 2025. He denied that allegation in court, stating, “I never touched her on her leg.” He was granted bail of $6,000 at the time, and the charge was subsequently dismissed.
In the latest case, Taylor was granted bail of $3,000 with one surety or two sureties, subject to conditions prohibiting him from contacting the complainant, her family or prosecution witnesses. He must also remain at least 100 yards away from the complainant.
Taylor, who has reportedly posted bail, is scheduled to return to court on December 30, 2026.
The latest allegation against him has not been proven in court.
