Have you noticed that dancehall artists seem to have some serious "good luck" when it comes on to being arrested and charged for some criminal activity and then miraculously the charges are dropped for one reason or the other...
Therefore we as dancehall/reggae music fans you should rejoice for the incompetence of the police and justice system
...here are a couple of notable incidents that took place last year...
In January Aidonia was arrested on gun charges... He is still free as far as a bird as far as I can see
Beenie Man’s tax evasion case was dismissed last year... (luck you say?)
In August last year Police in Negril, Westmoreland charge Mavado with assault and using indecent language after an incident at the Jungle nightclub. Later in the month, the charges are dropped as the complainant in the matter tells the court that he has no desire to continue with the case....hmmm
What happened to Teflon since he was arrested on gun charges, after an illegal gun was found at his home during a police operation in his community... last year
In June 2008 Mavado (again)was freed of the gun-related charges he had been facing earlier in the year; the main witnesses didnt turn up at the trial
In May arson case against Lutan Fyah was discontinued...
Vybz Kartel and some other persons were detained for questioning by the police, reportedly regarding the murder of a well-known gunman in Spanish Town. .........was eventually released without any charges being pressed
Deva Bratt carnal abuse charge dropped...
Female deejay Spice was reportedly punched and beaten by her common law husband... the case was dismissed earlier this year.
But it seem that these people get in trouble far more than the average man.. this is just a fraction of the incidents that happened last year..
Never a dull moment in the Dancehall fraternity...the artist should give thanx say the police cant seem to press charges and convict a roach for crawling
Deva's charge DROPPED?!?!? (I figured as much. . .hope he learns his lesson about getting too close to these groupies)
ReplyDeleteand most of the Portmore Empire turned on him for what?!?!
..it wasnt no groupie it was said to be a 14 year old school girl but i dont know how innocent she was...
ReplyDeleteempire a try be squeaky clean..and them already tainted
this same thing happened to a janitor at a school in Brooklyn, and it turned out not to be true, but he lost his job and I'm not sure they even gave it back.
ReplyDeleteI guess innocent until proven guilty doesn't apply if your victim is female.
