Horrified to read about Jah Cure

In Jamaica, there are a new breed of reggae singers including Sizzla, Richie Spice, Fantanmojah, and one called Jah Cure.

I had heard about him but I can't tell you what song he sings but I'm sure it's some that I am familiar with.

Was reading the Sunday Gleaner on Monday night (sunday's news is of such that it does not get stale) and was shocked and horrified to read of how he raped a young woman at gunpoint a couple of years ago.

He is now in jail after being convicted and can you imagine that other entertainers have been offering the young lady money to help get him out of jail?? She says she has difficulty sleeping, difficulty having relationships with men, and these so called friends want her to take back her evidence and beg for the man who humiliated her?

Lowd steuppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppps. He should rot in jail and they should not feed him nor give him water.

I wonder how many people know about this and are still buying his records? How many dont and would be horrified that they are supporting a criminal? I going to look on my music on my computer and see if there are any of his songs and delete them for good.
