As police continue to search for the suspect who killed 60-year-old Marcus Hinsbey, a British expat employed at Cable Bahamas Group of Companies, riveting details reveal he knew the killer.

While authorities are mum as they look through camera footage at the gated community Venito Condominium where Hinsbey lived, another member of the homeowners association on which Hinsbey served, Francois Marie Bourque said the killer took the keys and locked the door after the crime.

Police had to break down the door to the building to enquire about Hinsbey after his employees alerted them that he did not come to work nor called about his absence.

Police have not revealed any motive nor have they made any arrests as of today.

But police say neighbors remember hearing a loud knock on Hinsbey’s door early Saturday morning where he lived for 9 years.

Baroque told the Tribune, “…we got good security and I think it was somebody he knew.

“It’s a little tough, especially for me,” Baroque said as he described his feelings after his friend was killed.

It was reported that Hinsbey was found with a slit throat and near disembowelment, with lacerations to the back and hand.

The details revealed in the death of 60-year-old expat Marcus Hinsbey are graphic and gruesome.

The Technical Accounts Manager at Cable Bahamas Group of Companies was killed with a sharp object in his Western condominium where he was discovered with “multiple lacerations” to the body.

CSJ Report understands that the body of the British man was covered in a sheet, and police discovered that he suffered a slit to the throat while his intestines hanged out of his body in the bedroom of his Venito home on Monday.

Police were alerted when coworkers noticed Hinsbey did not show up for work nor did he call in.  Police then breached the condominium and found his body inside, which was also inflicted with stab wounds to the back and defense wounds in the hands, which indicate the victim may have fended off his attacker.

It is believed Hinsbey, also president of the Homeowners Association at Vernito, may have been dead for more than 24 hours.

Authorities still do not know who killed Hinsbey but they are using cameras on the property to find the killer. The building requires a key card and the person likely used one to gain access to Hinsbey’s condominium.

Friend Andrea Gottlieb said Hinsbey’s death was shocking and described him as “gentle, kind, mild-mannered and considerate.”

Police are asking the public for assistance in finding the suspect. You can contact the Criminal Investigations Department at 502-9991/2, Crime Stoppers at 328-TIPS (8477) or the nearest police station.
