buju will be acquitted...

i-man, if you will accept this simple truth... all men can be made to do to something they would not ordinarily do, then you could hold empathy for buju's predicament...

it was a poor decision by buju to be involved... however, i dont think he could have helped himself because i think the informant was more sophisticated and advanced in this game of manipulation than buju could ever imagine... persistence and persuasion along with setting the right conditions to lead a person down a predetermined path are a powerful combination...

any living person can be entrapped... i think his attorney will prove his innocence...

Buju Banton wasn't told about drugs at warehouse

On the day Buju Banton was filmed in a Florida warehouse filled with cocaine last December; he did not know he was going there to see drugs.

This was revealed during a grueling cross examination from defence attorney David Marcus of Alexander Johnson, the prosecution's star witness against Buju, whose given name is Mark Myrie.
Markus has been cross-examining Johnson, the United States Drug Enforcement Administration's (DEA) informant during Wednesday morning's session of the reggae singer's drug trial.
Yesterday, the court heard shocking tape recordings of the artiste's conversations with the informant.

Johnson acknowledged in court today that the meeting at the warehouse was what he called a 'flash showing'.
Johnson also confirmed that on the way to the warehouse, he and Buju spoke extensively about his music career but never about drugs.
He also acknowledged that after the meeting no deal was discussed or made.

Markus established that Buju and Johnson met twice at restaurants in south Florida after their first meeting on the flight from Madrid.
Referring to the transcript of the taped conversations, Markus noted that both occasions, it was Johnson who brought up the issue of a drug deal and he did so hours after the two had talked about other things, and when they would have drank extensively.

In one of those conversations, Buju was heard saying that he had too much wine to drink.
For five months after their restaurant meetings, Johnson repeatedly sought to get Buju to come see him, but the singer kept cancelling.
Based on the transcripts, most of the conversations were short with Buju promising to call back, but never did.
Johnson also acknowledged the following the warehouse meeting he had he called Buju twice the next day, but the singer would not take his call.

What was revealed on the second day of testimony is even more damning, the diamond smuggling leaves a very bitter taste in my mouth but that is something for John Public Courtroom.
I can't understand how Marcus wasn't able to get some of the charges dismissed before trial or argued for dismissal after the DEA testified.

Still can't believe the odds of Buju and a confidential informer taking the same plane from Spain(*a Jakan and a Colombian) and striking up a conversation. Do not be too quick to dismiss(at least Marcus should not) that theory, all it takes is someone making the allegation to the DEA.

What if the crime would not exist had it not been for the DEA?
