Vybz Kartel Should Be Freed From Pretrial Detention

They have held several trials and cannot convict after 3 years.
A former British Colony with no justice....what a surprise...
Seriously they have held this man down in jamaica prison for 3 years and the 3rd trial does not stick.
STOP the bias and free the man already if you cannot charge and convict him of any crime..
I am sick of hear say from Jamaica saying we hate the man Vybz or we love Bounty instead.
What does music have to do with delivering justice in a court of law???
The crab in na barrel phenomenon in jamaica is a real shame.

I hope that thug-punk rots in jail. It'll be a good start to show that all of the money and all of the big-money lawyers in the world cannot help you to escape justice. Fools like Buju and Vybz think that their talent and success allows them carte blanche.

Walter that is like calling Stephen King a murderous heathen. Your assumption is that the just are attempting to punish the unjust. Strikkly you assume just the opposite. Don't blame the British for the actions of men/women who reside in Jamaica. Why? Because Marcus Garvey would see it as a big bag of excuses. Walter, if the Jamaica Penal system had taken Winston Rodney into custody would you be saying the same thing? Perhaps if Bunny Wailer were on trial for Murder but there was no body ever located? Ziggy Marley etc. I highly doubt they think their talent and success makes them untouchable. It is more likely because they have "seen it all" and don't imagine themselves to be part of the "same ole story". My point, no one here knows what has happened other than the Po Po have held Vybz, Shawn Storm and one other man whose name eludes my for 3 years. 3 Years without a conviction to me is crooked. If they determine them to be innocent have they not already served 3 years? for what exactly? I don't trust any of the people named, I can only good by what we read in the press and that STINKS to hi Zion.

Walter with the crackre commentary LOL......

No "fair and speedy trial" rights in most Caribbean countries. Like we've seen with Kartel & Ninjaman, people can be imprisoned for years based on an accusation while trials are continually delayed.

Screw da bombaclot let him sit in jail

Where is the body? This seems pretty strange. If there is a dead person where is the body? If there is no body how can you be sure this person isn't just hiding out of fear for their life? It is obvious this person was attempting to appear afraid. TO ME... if you can be convicted of a crime that there is no evidence that said crime actually took place seems...shady at best.

I must of missed something, I thought I read the body was found and mostly burned?...Maybe I'm wrong. Hope this sh-t gets over soon, and I hope they get it right.

They were talking about having phone and video evidence. I assume the texts are the phone evidence and the video evidence will be coming shortly. You do not need a body for a murder conviction.

This is from 2011 but:

"It was not specified which of the accused men were on the video but the Court was told that it showed Clive 'Lizard' Williams being mobbed and beaten to death."

Anyone hear anything recently about the video? I remember hearing that they recovered it from Vybz's hard drive.

yeah - he is hiding. kinda like jimmy hoffa, whose body has also never been found.
Requiring a body sure would make killers lifes easier - just toss the body in the ocean or burn it up
and VOILA - no murder occured...

I guess my point was when you do find a body it tells you how the person was killed. I have very little doubt that dude is dead. Who killed him is the mystery. How do I know the police didn't show up, take him, do him in and pin it on Kartel because they don't like him? What happened to the other piece of evidence that would have verified the texts? The burden of proof seems to be on one guy to prove he didn't do the killing.

3 Years without a conviction is ridiculous. As for the Jamaican judicial system........it seems in this case, they throw a bunch of @#$%& on the wall til some finally sticks. Crazy. Guilty or Not, how many shots does the jamaican judicial system get? thats a shitload of "do overs" if you ask me. All BS aside, dancehall has definately felt the impact of Vybez being out of the studio. Good or bad, he was drawing the spotlight world wide to the Dancehall scene in a major way.

Wow. The case gets more pathetic time passes apparently

Wouldn't the defense be the ones delaying the case anyhow? I heard they were questioning the jury or something.

Not looking good for Kartel. If they can definitively trace the phone to Kartel, he should be rotting in prison for a long, long time.

Said phone was used by these so called officers of law to make personal calls after it was seized for evidence. Jamaica has third world government and police with ambitions and abilities for global entertainment reach. That is the problem.

Proof of guilt or freedom....

They supposedly have video of the victim being beaten, with a man's tattoos visible on it. If they match, that's all she wrote.
