Vybz Kartel, the Jamaican dancehall artist, has been freed from prison after judges ruled he should not face a retrial for murder. His conviction was overturned by UK judges in March, and Jamaican appeal judges decided against a new trial, citing his declining health and the passage of time. Kartel has always maintained his innocence regarding the murder of Clive Williams, whose body has never been found. His release is seen as significant for both Jamaica and the dancehall music scene.
