Vybz Kartel writes from Jail... to news paper columnist... expressing his innocense and how the system is how to get him...
this is a snippet of the not to Ms Carolyn Cooper of the Gleaner news paper..
Dear Ms. Cooper,Good day to you and i hope you are in the best of health and the highest of spirits, but I am not.
"Ms Cooper as you know i am in jail on numerous charges and i'd like
to tell you that i am an innocent man who needs your help because i'm
being painted as this evil 'D.J. by day, don by night' murderer who is
society's number one cause of crime and violence. The police is using
the media to slaughter me and as such i don't think i will get a fair
trial. They are using the media to form public opinion of me that is so
contradictory to the person that I really am. They (police) have tried
my case in the public & found me guilty.
"Every single piece of alleged evidence, every new development in
the case is thrown on t.v. as if this is a soap opera, but i can assure
you that this is no movie to me. This is about my life and my freedom
and i take them very seriously.
"My charges are merely allegations, but they are giving the public
the impression that i am guilty and that is not fair to me or my
family.
"I have been to court on numerous occasions and saw hundreds of
accused men who are charged with heinous crimes like murdering
children, killing police officers, burning & shooting whole
families and i have never once saw police on t.v. discussing the
development of those cases, much less every week, as in my case."
