Vybz Kartel Granted $3 Million Bail For Murder Charge

by Steven J. Horowitz

Though he was granted bail, it doesn't necessarily mean he'll be a free man.

Dancehall artist Vybz Kartel has been granted $3 million bail in the Jamaican Supreme Court earlier today for his alleged murder of Barrington "Bossie" Bryan earlier this year.
Though the singer was granted bail, it does not necessarily mean that Kartel will be released from prison, as he is currently facing another murder charge. He will appear with three others suspected in the murder in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court to make bail applications.
In July 2011, Kartel was originally charged in the murder of Burton. He was given two other murder charges in October, with accusations including with murder, illegal possession of a firearm and conspiracy to murder. He was denied bail for the charges.
