Jurors finally heard stunning evidence on Monday, concerning cell phones seized from Vybz Kartel and four co-accursed.
On Monday the court heard about text messages by Clive "LIZARD" Williams whom the men are alleged to have killed in 2011. The messages suggest Mr. Williams was terrified as he headed to visit Kartel to discuss a missing gun.
Corporal Shawn Brown of the Communication and Forensic Unit of the Organised Crime Investigation Division (OCID) was the man to introduce the text messages to the court. He was tasked with analyzing comunication information from cellular phones.
Its alleged that Clive "Lizard" Williams was killed at a property in Havendale St. Andrew belonging to Vybz Kartel on August 16, 2011. Based on the evidence revealed, Mr. Williams was taken to the locatin by Shawn Campbell, better known as Shawn Storm, in a taxi driven by a man identified as "Need-Fa."
In corroborating the evidence the prosecution introduced text messages. On August 14, 2011 at 3.09 pm the text data revealed a message sent from a cellular phone belonging to Clive Williams to one allegedly belonging to Vybz Kartel. It read: "Daddy, a little thing gwaan mi and we really want to talk to you, daddy."
Then, on August 16, it's alleged that Shawn Storm sent a number of text messages to Vybz Kartel:
3:28 AM ... "Mi boss wi affi get bak dem ting de mi boss.
