More Buju drama - Reggae artist could face additional charges
Buju’s lawyer says new indictment not permissible
BY PAUL HENRY Crime/Court Co-ordinator
In an attempt to increase the likelihood of a conviction, Prosecutor James Preston secured a new grand jury indictment late last year, listing three counts of cocaine-related charges against the four-time Grammynominated reggae artiste, whose real name is Mark Anthony Myrie. The sole weapon charge remains.
“The chief danger raised by a multiplicitous indictment is the possibility that the defendant will receive more than one sentence for a single offence,” Markus said, referring to the case of the United States v Swaim, in his application seeking to strike out the new indictment.But Banton’s legal team, led by David Oscar Markus, is fighting the new indictment on the grounds that it is not permissible for new charges to be brought on old information and that the weapon charge was a violation of the Fifth Amendment.
An indictment is multiplicitous if it charges a single offence in more than one count.
The artiste was tried last September on charges of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute cocaine, and aiding and abetting the possession of a firearm during a drug-trafficking offence. However, the 12-member panel of jurors was unable to reach a verdict following three days of deliberations. The trial lasted a week in the Sam M Gibbons Federal Court in Tampa, Florida.
But should the new indictment stand, Banton will be tried for conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute cocaine, attempted possession with the intent to distribute cocaine, possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug-trafficking offence, and using the wires to facilitate a drugtrafficking offense.
Both sides are now awaiting a ruling from the court on the matter.
If convicted, Banton faces up to 20 years’ imprisonment. The United States Government would also seek to seize the artiste’s assets. A date for the retrial should be set today.
In the application seeking to have the superseding indictment dismissed, Markus noted that there are two fatal flaws. Firstly, the attorney noted, counts one, two and four are multiplicitous; and secondly, count three — the weapon charge — violates the double jeopardy clause of the Fifth Amendment, which stipulates that “[N]or shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb.”The violation, the attorney said, arises from the fact that there was not sufficient evidence in the last trial to convict his client on the gun charge.
The defence team had, at the conclusion of the first trial, argued for the gun charge to be thrown out, but to no avail.
Regarding the other counts, Markus noted that the government has only alleged one drug transaction, and as such “it should only be permitted to charge that set of facts one time”.
The singer/deejay was arrested December 2009 following a sting operation by United States drug enforcement agents in which two other men — James Mack and Ian Thomas — were nabbed earlier. A gun was found in Mack’s car when he was arrested.
Banton's legal team is contending that he was entrapped by the United States Government. Banton was not on the scene when the men were arrested.

Foxy back at it!!!!!!!
Recent reports from confirmed sources claims Brooklyn Rapper, Ex- lil Kim rival Foxy Brown, Is beefing again this time with current management Platinum Camp Production$ (PNP.)
In an email received from PNP entitled Water Gate Leak. It is stated that Foxy is upset over the leak of her come back track called the Christmas Massacre.
PNP stated this in the E-mail "Platinum Camp and Nightlife productions strongly dispute the recent claims being made by Foxy Brown. The whole world already knew there would be a new, OFFICIAL Foxy track coming out by Christmas because Foxy herself announced it everyday via her Twitter page. The song, "U aint ruff enough" previously titled, "Christmas Massacre" was supposed to be released on Christmas Eve. Unfortunately, we recently got word the record was somehow hacked from a supposedly "secure" server, and then leaked to various sources around the net. The same situation is currently happening with Grammy Award winning Eminem and Kanye West's new material, and is sadly the nature of today's industry.

The same situation is currently happening with Grammy Award winning Eminem and Kanye West's new material, and is sadly the nature of today's industry.
We fully understand where Foxy would be upset with something getting leaked, an artist of her stature certainly deserves better, and we are as disappointed and angry as she is. By the same token, we had a previous release date fully sanctioned by Foxy Brown for December 24, 2010 for the OFFICIAL - NOT LEAKED version of "u ain't ruff enuff" (The leaked version is NOT the finished production).
Her objections today are the first time we have been contacted in any manner about any doubts by her in regards to the aforementioned official release. We at Platinum Camp and Nightlife feel like this is coming totally out of the blue, especially after all the time and money that we have invested in the Foxy Brown rebirth project.
We only wish she would have contacted us face to face so these issues could have been handled privately and not played out in the press. We, of course, still have Foxy's best interest at heart and would like to resolve this matter as soon as possible, but we will also vigorously defend ourselves and our reputations from any unwarranted attacks."
