Dancehall party jam artist Vybz Kartel sentenced to life imprisonment for murder.

My days in unilag will never forget 'bicycle' and straight jeans and fitted' I really loved his music, actually might still do. But the fate he brought upon himself when he decided to play God has put not only his career in shams but his entire life.  


After the murder of his associate in 2011,

dancehall singer Vybz Kartel  was sentence to life in prison for the murder of his former associate Clive "Lizard" Williams .The sentencing which took place yesterday (April 3rd)was the longest murder trial in Jamaica's history. Prosecutors say Williams was murdered after a failed business deal. Vybz Kartel, who was convicted of the murder last month won't have a shot at having parole for 35 years.
Vybz is 38 years may only stand a chance at leaving prison at the age of 73..

Williams body was never found and the jury voted 10-1 .The one juror who voted against the decision has since been charged with attempting to bribe other jurors into changing their decisions.
A key piece of evidence was a text message said to be sent from Kartel's phone.It claimed Clive 'Lizard' Williams had been chopped up into so many pieces his body would never be found.
If you recall,he has been accused of skin bleaching but claimed it was due to spending so much time in air-conditioned environment. 


What do you think? Did the term fit the crime?
