Mavado Breaks Silence On 16-Year-Old Son Being Charged With Murder

Mavado has finally broken his silence on his son being accused of murder.

The ‘Big League’ deejay’s 16-year-old son is charged with murder, conspiracy to murder, arson, shooting with intent, illegal possession of firearm & ammunition for the death of 23-year-old Lorenzo Thomas, otherwise called ‘Israel’ or ‘Trulups’ in Cassava Piece, St Andrew.

Mavado strongly believes his son is innocent of all the charges, according his attorney Tamika Harris.

“He (Mavado) is distraught and a little perturbed,” Harris told the Jamaica Observer. “He is maintaining that the allegation against his son is not true, and he is willing to go at lengths to defend his son,” she continued.

Meanwhile, Mavado’s son was a no show in court on Monday.

According to Harris, who is also representing the juvenile, the police officers were responsible for bringing the accused to court but didn’t.

The case hearing has been rescheduled to a future date.

Mavado is yet to turn up at the Constant Spring police station, following a call from the police earlier this month, urging him to report to them in person.

His lawyers say that the artist is  fulfilling contractual obligations overseas.
