Earlier in the newscast, we reported on the dispute between Minister Michael Finnegan and Dolores Balderamos Garcia resulting from comments Garcia made about the Mace Bearer Brian “Yellow Man” Audinette. Audinette spoke to News Five Jose Sanchez a few minutes ago about the incident and the photos circulated by the Belize Times. Audinette said he was not peeing in public and though he is a social drinker, he was drinking an energy drink “full throttle” when the photo was taken of him in front of the House of Representatives.

“What is the reason that you and Dolores Balderamos Garcia have a problem? Do you know?”
Brian “Yellowman” Audinette
“I don’t know, I noh have no problems with the honorable Dolores Balderamos Garcia. Apparently Dolores Balderamos Garcia have a problem with me. Rather than Dolores the attack me she need fih try d out deh the service the people of Belize Rural Central. I think what she and her opposition party are doing is trying to try to divert the people, trying to make the people come off the fact that the C.C.J. decision happened, don’t attack me, deal with the C.C.J, don’t try to put the blame on me. They corrupt they make secret deal, that have nothing to do with me.”
Jose Sanchez
“But what she brought up in the house about you was that you were urinating in public. Have you or do you urinate in public?”
Brian Audinette
Brian Audinette
“She don’t see me the urinate anywhere. Somebody just passed and saw me the stand up outside behind a vehicle and say that I mi d urinate. Can they prove that I mi the urinate? They can’t, something is wrong with Dolores. Dolores don’t need to attack me. Dolores need fih chill herself.”
Jose Sanchez
“It does have the appearance that you were urinating in front of the Heritage Bank. Have you done that sort of thing before?”
Brian Audinette
“They don’t see me urinating, whatever they think they don’t see me the urinate. There is nothing running down is there any water running. They can’t prove that, I noh the urinate, she say I the urinate. I don’t see myself urinating I was standing there, she noh have no proof that I was urinating there. Dolores Is evil.”
Jose Sanchez
“She also claim in the house that you were drinking either in or in front of the National Assembly. The P.U.P. has sent an email of a photo of you slugging down something from a bottle. Were you drinking?”
Brian Audinette
“I come out of the vehicle heading up to the National Assembly, to do my duty as usual when the house is called. Dolores noh see me the drink nothing. Once again she take a picture, they take the picture and they post that, because you know they have they computer thing where you could computerize thing and so you could set thing up and so that is what they do, they say that I mi d drink liquor out there. They gahn and they set that in front of the National Assembly fi attack me.”
Jose Sanchez
“But the bottle itself, was it a beer bottle?”
Brian Audinette
“It wasn’t a beer bottle at all, it was Full Throttle.”
Jose Sanchez
“Now what do make of Minister Michael Finnegan came out in your defense and he got into trouble for the comments he made. What do you have to say in regards to Mr. Finnegan and Mrs. Dolores being that this has happened regarding women’s issues?”
Brian Audinette
“What Dolores is trying to do is that she trying to play this thing as a women’s thing. Saying that the minister have gone out of his way to actually attack her, that is not true. The minister get up in defense of me, fih protect me because I have no say. I can’t get up in the house and defend myself, if I could have get up in the house and defend myself I would have done that. I can’t, the minster get up and do it. So the minster did nothing wrong Dolores need to understand this is a big man game.”
Jose Sanchez
“Everything aside, everybody knows yellowman like his lee drink. Right?”
Brian Audinette
“Nothing wrong with that, all ah we like we lee drink. I like mi drink, I take mi drink, there is nothing wrong to take a drink and so. But she cannot go into the National Assembly trying to attack me to a fact that is a man that can’t defend himself. Then talking about matters that are in the court, I wouldn’t go into matters that are before the courts, the court will deal with that. I could assure she that when this thing is over, I will without no doubt be found not guilty because I am innocent.”
