Buju’s lawyers start new campaign
In its fight to earn freedom for Mark Myrie, the team, led by Chokwe Lumumba, is starting a campaign aimed at the United States Supreme Court.
The campaign, another letter-writing effort, tries to raise awareness about Buju’s drug case and points out the team’s stance against the artiste’s incarceration.
On wednesday, Lumumba’s team released a letter to the US Supreme Court, saying Buju has filed a petition for a Writ of Certiorari, seeking a review and reversal of his conviction and subsequent 10-year sentencing on drug charges, stemming from a December 2009 incident in Florida.
