Dancehall artist Vybez Kartel is now a free man after his successful appeal.
Vybz Kartel, formally known as Adidja Palmer – and his three co-defendants have been behind bars in a Jamaican prison since their arrests in 2011, and subsequent 2014 conviction, for the murder of Clive “Lizard” Williams, whose body was never found.
The conviction came from a mostly circumstantial case based on video and phone records from his BlackBerry Torch and a discredited witness.
Throughout the years, he’s proclaimed his innocence and fought to have the conviction thrown out.
He released his most popular album, ‘King of the Dancehall’ while in prison.
