A text message, believed to be the last sent by Clive ‘Lizard’ Williams, was yesterday read for jurors in the murder trial of entertainer Vybz Kartel and his four co-accused in the Home Circuit Court.

The text to his girlfriend Onika Jackson was sent at 7:37 pm on August 16, 2011, while Williams was believed to be in a motor car heading to Havendale in St Andrew where he is believed to have been beaten to death over the disappearance of an illegal gun.

“Baby im shaking so badly im nervous jeff jus catch mi on my phone but i don’t care he is going to pin me,” read the text.

The text concluded 20-minute span of texts between Williams and Jackson on that day. In the texts, which were read for jurors on Monday, Williams begged Jackson to call the police and call Nadine. He said in the texts that Vybz Kartel was going to kill him and that he was scared.

On Monday, the court was concluded with jurors being read a text from Williams to Jackson that was sent at 7:20 pm on August 16, 2011. “Tell Nadine don’t stop please call every min,” read the text.

Yesterday, Jackson’s text, in response to that text which came at 7:26, read: “Ok baby i cant concentrate rite now jus be cool and talk to g normal im trying to get Nadine phone no ansa gonna call babesha.”

“Please hurry mi soon reach babes,” Williams responded at 7:28 pm.

The prosecution also presented to jurors a list of calls involving Kartel, Campbell, Williams and the prosecution’s main witness, whose name the Jamaica Observer is withholding on a previous request from the prosecution. The calls are between August 14 and 16.

The trial continues on Thursday.
