I did not complain to the Public Defender, witness says
KINGSTON, Jamaica — The prosecution’s star witness in the Vybz Kartel murder trial today denied that he wrote a letter to the Public Defender complaining that the police had bullied him into implicating Kartel and his co-accused.
The defence had suggested that the witness was coerced by the police to make a false report on Kartel.
Kartel, whose real name is Adijah Palmer, is on trial for the 2011 murder of Clive ‘Lizard’ Williams at a Havendale house in St Andrew.
