spanish town

Entertainer David 'Mavado' Brooks was fined $3,000 or 10 days for using indecent language, when he appeared in the Spanish Town Resident Magistrate's Court, yesterday.

Brooks, who was unrepresented, pleaded guilty with explanation before RM C. Wiltshire, who gave him the chance to explain.

"It was a lyrical battle between myself and another entertainer your honour. Things got out of hand and I lose mi temper and curse de bad words. I am sorry," he said.

Displeased fans

Having heard the entertainer, the RM fined him. He paid the fine and left the court building surrounded by a number of persons said to be his supporters.

The fine was not pleasing to some persons on the outside of the court.

The entertainer was dragged before the court following a verbal clash between himself and fellow entertainer Adidjah 'Vybz Kartel' Palmer at the 25th staging of the Sting stage show at Jamworld on Boxing Day, December 26, last year.
