Freedom?

In July, YEN.com.gh reported that the singer's lawyer said text messages used to convict him were fake.

Isat Buchanan said new evidence of foul play and fake phone messages could throw out his conviction.

"Looking at the evidence, this case was about getting Vybz Kartel in prison and leaving him there.
What was put before the jury was evidence which we do not know if it was authentic, but what we do now know was that there was tampering of that cell phone," he said.
