Keyren Tzib out on bail following attempted murder conviction in High Court

By Aaron Humes: After spending Wednesday night in lockdown at the Queen Street Police Station, 33-year-old Keyren Levaun Tzib who was found guilty late Wednesday evening of the attempted murder of her colleague Coast Guard, Kurt Hyde, on April 6, 2015, was on Thursday afternoon able to post bail of $15,000.

The court’s judgment came too late in the day to allow bail to be posted before 5 p.m.

Justice Candace Nanton ruled that the shooting was neither accidental nor the product of insanity, as claimed by Tzib in her statement from the dock.

Hyde was hit once from behind in the back of his head and fell in the boat when he realized he had been shot.

Tzib was represented by attorney Darrell Bradley, who successfully argued for bail, citing his client’s mental condition as a reason to avoid remand.

As part of conditions to her bail, Tzib must make an appointment with chief psychiatrist Dr Alejandro Matus for the Ministry of Health to undergo a psychiatric evaluation; report to the Orange Walk Town police station on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays; report at the High Court once a week until sentencing takes place; avoid contact with Kurt Hyde; attend all follow-up sessions with her doctor and take all her clinical treatment as required; submit to the Human Development Department for a report to the court within seven days; surrender all her travel documents to the High Court; not apply for any other traveling documents; not leave the jurisdiction of Belize and not be arrested and charged with any other offenses whilst out on bail.

She will be sentenced on April 26.
