THUGS THREATENS JOURNALISTS OVER "KARTEL INFORMER" HEADLINE

Recent reports say that two journalist have recently been threatened, via phone calls, by thugs defending the integrity of the dancehall entertainment. They were certainly not amused by the headlines that depicted that entertainer as an police informant.


In response to this, Mr. palmer wrote this statement, condemning the death threats:

It was brought to my attention this morning by a member of my legal team that a number of persons including journalists have reported receiving threats from persons purportedly acting on my behalf.
During my sentencing hearing my Attorney Tom Tavares-Finson indicated to the court that I hold no ill-will to any of the persons involved in my trial neither the Police, Prosecutors, Executives from Digicel and certainly not any member of the Media who covered my trial in a manner which exposed the weaknesses in the Prosecution’s case for all the world to see.


I reiterate the position “I hold no ill-well  to anyone who was involved in my trial” and I put my faith in the judicial system and the appeal process on which we have now embarked.
I appeal to any misguided individual or individuals who may think it appropriate to seek to threaten or intimidate anyone, to stop it.
Such action is not helping me or my fellow appellants and is playing into the hands of the Police and others who are seeking to discredit me and prejudice the fair hearing of my appeal.
In the meantime I thank my family, friends and fans who continue to support and have faith in me.
