Sexual networks
Brent William settled in Medellín in 2009. He said he was representative of a beauty center, merchant, producer and website administrator. The first time he entered the radar of justice was 15/7/13, when two 14-year-old girls denounced him. After being questioned by their respective parents, who detected suspicious attitudes in their outings and purchases with money of unknown origin, the minors reported that an exalumna of their school contacted them to go to the home of a foreigner who gave them money In exchange for sex.
According to the file, the meetings were held at the La Piscina estate in Las Palmas, which Brent had rented. There she used to summon the infants on Facebook or through her pimping schoolgirl, and she preferred the students of an educational institution in Envigado. Some put them to play with water guns in the pool, while others would lead them to their room for oral sex, in exchange for $ 100,000 or $ 150,000. By taking his virginity, he offered $ 500,000.
The police raided the farm on 9/30/13. He found in a closet a Cassidy 38 revolver and a Glock 19 pistol in a nochero, with their respective ammunition. During the trial, several of the schoolgirls who visited Brent acted as witnesses to their defense, which in the end failed to prove the innocence of the client.
For the crime of commercial sexual exploitation of a person under 18 years old and illegal possession of weapons, Brent was sentenced in 2015 to 15 and a half years by the Municipal Criminal Court of Medellín, a sentence that was ratified in November last year by The Superior Court of the city (filed No. 0500 16000 207201300458).
One of the girls complainants and their parents were threatened with death, so they are under the protection of the Public Prosecutor's Office. "We called the school, we know that your daughter did not go to school, wait for that sapa we kill it quickly," they said in a phone call, others put funereal music.
While the hearings were going on, he was in the Envigado and Itagüí prisons, until his defense obtained the hospital detention, thanks to an opinion of Legal Medicine, signed by the coroner Andrés Felipe Velasco (12/14/14). He said the detainee had chronic constipation and possible colon cancer, so he should not be incarcerated.
His new place of confinement was not a hospital, but the home of Gerontological Comfort Eternal Spring, in the Estadio district, Medellín. There he remained with an electronic surveillance bracelet and, according to the investigation, continued with his pedophile practices.
Another 13-year-old boy, living in Bello, filed a complaint for events on 28/3/16. Like the previous ones, his parents discovered it with money that had not given to him, and when reviewing his cell they found recharges of minutes made by a stranger.
The preteen girl met the Canadian on Facebook and went to visit him to his place of confinement, accompanied by a little friend. According to her, she received $ 600,000 for practicing oral sex and posing in a bikini and underwear for a photo shoot, which would be uploaded to the internet. This investigation, for the crime of abusive carnal access under the age of 14, is still in the preliminary stage.
On June 20, 16, guards of the Inpec made the routine visit to the nursing home, where the gerontologist of the place gave them the electronic bracelet that the condemned had left. Brent William escaped.
The fugue happened four days after the murder of Tomas Willemoes and the prosecution suspects that the Canadian is the intellectual author, reason why it issued a warrant to him of capture last August.
The informants, whose data led to the sentences against the members of "Colima", said that his boss was apparently Brent. One source notes that the stranger allegedly sponsored the combo's finances and departing on farms with their members, where schoolgirls arrived as part of the entertainment.
"'Tita' said that they made the return of the foreigner from El Poblado (Willemoes) because he was annoying the boss of them, who they say 'the Gringo'," said one of the informants. Another added that Brent William, allegedly, "had a Danish killed because he was competing with his child pornography business."
This hypothesis, which controversies the initial theory of a death by cell phone theft, is shared by the Medellín Department of Security. When asked the head of the office, Gustavo Villegas , if the motive of this crime was a dispute between networks of sexual exploitation, he replied: "Yes, because of the investigations that have been done, apparently that is one of the reasons. This was also where the Danish government received very good information. This person already had a history in his country for drug trafficking. "
However, Frank Willemoes , Tom's father, said in an interview for the BT portal in Denmark (where his son wrote) that he was never involved in drug issues and that he only came to Colombia on vacation.
EL COLOMBIANO communicated with the Canadian Embassy in Bogota to discuss this and other events involving Canadian citizens, without receiving an official statement.
