Despite this, Vybz Kartel’s fans are however remaining optimistic of the embattled deejay’s chances, as the judge’s ruling highlights that the court agrees that there is sufficient grounds to warrant a review of the trial. Some believe that the appeal process could even be fast tracked given its high profile nature.

Adidjah “Vybz Kartel” Palmer and his 3 co-accused, Shawn “Storm” Campbell, Kahira Jones, and Andre St. John were all convicted in the 2011 murder of Clive “Lizard” Williams.
