Buju Banton gets new lawyer

BUJU BANTON is making some serious movements in his ongoing quest for freedom.
The Grammy Award-winning reggae star has acquired the services of a new attorney name Charles J. Ogletree Jnr after his previous lawyer Chokwe Lumumba was elected mayor of Jackson Mississippi.
“Attorney Charles J. Ogletree is the Jesse Climenko Professor of Law Director, Charles Hamilton Houston Institute for Race and Justice,” Buju Banton’s Defence Support Committee said in a statement. “Accordingly, he is more than ready to continue the fight for justice for Buju. We expect that Attorney Ogletree will determine what his next steps will be after reviewing the case. Attorney Lumumba has already filed a notice of appeal following the incomplete justice Judge Moody gave on June 26, 2013.”

Buju Banton is also being transferred to a new prison.
According to reports, the reggae singer, real name Mark Myrie, was transferred from a Florida prison and is now being held at a Federal Transfer Centre in Oklahoma City.
