No bail for ‘Bounty’

Thursday, September 23, 2010
POPULAR dancehall deejay Rodney Pryce, who is better known by his stage name ‘Bounty Killer’, was yesterday remanded in custody when he appeared in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court to answer an assault charge.
Pryce, who is accused of beating his girlfriend, was denied bail by Senior Magistrate Judith Pusey, despite a plea from his attorney Christopher Townsend that his client was innocent.
Allegations are that the entertainer used a hammer, his chain and a mosquito zapper to hit the 19-year-old model and student.
In her statement, the woman said she visited the entertainer at his Oakland apartment in Kingston on September 15 at about 5:00 am, and while she was in his bedroom he attacked her.
She said he grabbed her by her hair and throat, pushed her on the bed and started to hit her in the head.
The complainant said the artist used his chain to hit her all over her body. However, she said she managed to escape and ran into the washroom but he followed her and used a mosquito zapper to hit her on her right wrist, causing bruises.
She said the artiste then grabbed her by her neck and said, “Like how u bleeding betta me jus kill u and done cause that is a sign that you should die.”
She said he then left and went to the kitchen and returned with a hammer, which he used to hit her on her knees and in her head.
The complainant said after the artiste was done assaulting her, he asked for a massage and she complied, as she was fearful for her life. She said they later went to bed and she got up at about midday the next day and did some household chores.
However, she said when she was leaving the accused hugged her and gave her US$100 and Ja$2,000.
When the matter was called up in court yesterday the controversial artiste, who was clad in a white shirt and black pants, looked very calm and even smiled as he was being led into the courtroom.
Townsend argued that his client was a victim and that there was a disparity between the alleged injuries and what was contained in the medical report.
The attorney also hinted that the complainant might have maliciously made the statement. He said the police overheard her saying that “I have been calling you for two days now if you did answer this would not happen.”
But the magistrate, who refused to be otherwise persuaded, said she was not granting bail as the entertainer had been before her within the last few months for a similar matter. In addition she said he had another matter before the court as well as one in the high court for illegal possession of a firearm.
The magistrate said she was greatly concerned that if granted bail, the entertainer would commit a similar offence.
“He is staying with me, it’s no longer a matter of protecting these women from him. I am protecting him from himself,” she said.
Pryce was remanded into custody for his trial on September 27.
A NUH SEXIST A NUH OLE AN KOLE A JUS A CERTAIN LIVITY- A virtuous WOMAN
ARE YOU A VIRTUOUS WOMAN?
11 The heart of her husband does safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
13 She seeks wool, and flax, and works willingly with her hands.
14 She is like the merchants’ ships; she brings her food from afar.
15 She rises also while it is yet night, and gives meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
16 She considers a field, and buys it: with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard.
17 She girds her loins with strength, and strengthens her arms.
18 She perceives that her merchandise is good: her candle goes not out by night.
19 She lays her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
20 She stretches out her hand to the poor; yes, she reaches forth her hands to the needy.
21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22 She makes herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sits among the elders of the land.
24 She makes fine linen, and sells it; and delivers girdles to the merchant.
25 Strength and honor are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
26 She opens her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
27 She looks well to the ways of her household, and eats not the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.
29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but you excel them all.
30 Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

Psalm 7
A shiggaion[a] of David, which he sang to the LORD concerning Cush, a Benjamite.
1 O LORD my God, I take refuge in you;
save and deliver me from all who pursue me,
2 or they will tear me like a lion
and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me.
3 O LORD my God, if I have done this
and there is guilt on my hands-
4 if I have done evil to him who is at peace with me
or without cause have robbed my foe-
5 then let my enemy pursue and overtake me;
let him trample my life to the ground
and make me sleep in the dust.
Selah
6 Arise, O LORD, in your anger;
rise up against the rage of my enemies.
Awake, my God; decree justice.
7 Let the assembled peoples gather around you.
Rule over them from on high;
8 let the LORD judge the peoples.
Judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness,
according to my integrity, O Most High.
9 O righteous God,
who searches minds and hearts,
bring to an end the violence of the wicked
and make the righteous secure.
10 My shield [b] is God Most High,
who saves the upright in heart.
11 God is a righteous judge,
a God who expresses his wrath every day.
12 If he does not relent,
he [c] will sharpen his sword;
he will bend and string his bow.
13 He has prepared his deadly weapons;
he makes ready his flaming arrows.
14 He who is pregnant with evil
and conceives trouble gives birth to disillusionment.
15 He who digs a hole and scoops it out
falls into the pit he has made.
16 The trouble he causes recoils on himself;
his violence comes down on his own head.
17 I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness
and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.

Buju Banton testifies in drug trial in Florida
September 22, 2010 6:55 PM ET
By JENNIFER KAY
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) – The chatty man drinking red wine with Jamaican reggae star Buju Banton on a flight from Madrid to Miami seemed to have important music industry connections, so when the talk turned to cocaine, the singer tried to impress him with made-up ambitions of drug trafficking, Banton testified Wednesday.
The man, Alexander Johnson, was an undercover U.S. government informant. Banton said he liked Johnson, but he was only looking to secure a new distribution contract — not a cocaine deal.
“I’m just a humble musician. I was talking over my head,” Banton said. “I was trying to impress this guy and that’s what got me in this hot seat right now.”
Banton, whose real name is Mark Myrie, is on trial in Tampa federal court on charges of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute more than five kilograms of cocaine and aiding and abetting two others in possessing a firearm during the course of cocaine distribution. He faces up to life in prison.
Johnson has testified that Banton admitted involvement in drug trafficking, and he wanted to give Johnson money so he could buy and sell cocaine. Their recorded conversations were played Tuesday for the jury.
The 37-year-old, four-time Grammy nominee took the stand Wednesday in a gray suit jacket, his long dreadlocks tied up in a braid. He said Johnson initiated their conversation about drugs on the plane in July 2009.
Banton said he made up ambitions to deal cocaine to one-up Johnson, who was talking about cocaine and marijuana deals of his own, alongside a legitimate seafood business and music industry contacts in Los Angeles.
When they met for lunch at a Fort Lauderdale restaurant the next day and at a hotel a few days later, it was Johnson who brought up cocaine, Banton said.
Banton said he never wanted nor expected Johnson to set up a cocaine deal, despite what he said in the recordings. The singer had told Johnson that he financed drug deals, wanted to sell drugs in Europe, buy drugs from the Caribbean and South America and use Johnson’s boat to transport drugs.
“I talk too much, but I am not a drug dealer,” Banton said.
Banton said he was surprised when the informant presented him with cocaine at an undercover police warehouse in Sarasota on Dec. 8. Surveillance video shows Banton peering over co-defendant Ian Thomas’ shoulder at the cocaine, and the singer tasting the drugs with a finger.
The singer said he thought Johnson was going to show him his boat and offices.
“When I realized this was real drugs, I thought, ‘This is a real drug dealer, and I want no part of it,'” Banton said. “I was in over my head.”
Under cross-examination Wednesday by Markus, Johnson said the cocaine was a “surprise showing.”
Johnson said he continued to pursue a cocaine deal with Banton, even though the singer repeatedly canceled meetings and rushed him off the phone, if he answered Johnson’s calls at all.
“I needed him to come to me,” Johnson said. “I was doing the job I was doing from day one.”
Banton said he avoided Johnson’s calls afterward, and he did not know Thomas would try to set up a drug deal with Johnson on Dec. 10.
That day, Thomas and another co-defendant, James Mack, were arrested at the warehouse. Banton was arrested at his Miami-area home.
Thomas and Mack have pleaded guilty to conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute five kilograms or more of cocaine. Each faces up to life in prison.
Assistant U.S. Attorney James Preston asked Banton what he thought he would gain by lying about his involvement in drug trafficking.
“I know you want to paint me bad,” Banton replied. “If I was a drug dealer, I would have taken the plea deal you offered me.”
Another reggae singer testified Wednesday for Banton.
Stephen Marley, one of Jamaican music legend Bob Marley’s sons, told jurors that in the 19 years he’s been friends and played music with Banton, he has never known Banton to traffic in cocaine.
