Kartel Companion...gets full brunt of Law

KINGSTON (Observer): SHANE Williams, one of the men found in a hotel room with entertainer Vybz Kartel earlier this month, and who pleaded guilty to possession of ganja, was fined $100 when he appeared before the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court this morning. Senior Magistrate Judith Pusey presided over the case. Williams was one of three persons who were taken into custody along with the entertainer earlier this month after cops from the Flying Squad raided a hotel room in New Kingston where they were staying. A search of the room turned up a small quantity of ganja and the four were subsequently arrested and charged. Kartel has since been charged with murder, conspiracy to murder and illegal possession of a firearm in relation to the death of 27-year-old Barrington Burton o/c 'Bossie', a businessman/promoter of a Gregory Park address in St Catherine. Burton was murdered while he was standing with friends along Walkers Avenue in Gregory Park.
