On Wednesday afternoon, the Jamaican Court of Appeal made a decision against retrying the case, citing various reasons including jury misconduct and the deterioration of the artist’s health.

The Court of Appeal, led by Judge Marva McDonald-Bishop, unanimously decided to release Vybz Kartel and his co-defendants, Shawn ‘Shawn Storm’ Campbell, Andre St John, and Kahira Jones.

“Considering all the issues the court has reviewed, we conclude that the interests of justice do not require a new trial for the appellants,” said Judge Marva McDonald-Bishop.

“Therefore, we issue the following order: the conviction and sentence are hereby quashed in relation to the appellants,” she added.
