The more I dig into this case the more I have come to the recognition, that the public has been misled by public commentators and the media.
What appeared to have occurred in the Kern Spencer case in what was called the Kern Spencer Trial was not really a trial but a Preliminary enquiry.
What is a preliminary enquiry ?
It’s a hearing before a Court Judge to decide whether there is sufficient evidence for the accused to go to trial; a preliminary inquiry only takes place where the accused is charged with an indictable offence and chooses to be tried by a judge or judge and jury of the superior trial court;
So reader what we just had after 6 years in court was not a trial of Kern Spencer, but a preliminary enquiry, which was to be used to determine if there is a case for Kern Spencer to answer.
The learned judge having reviewed all the “ damming and explosive “ evidence against Mr Spencer and his co-accused, determined that Mr Spencer etal had no case to answer.
The learned judge offered no explanation for her ruling and her ruling is not subject to any appeal, thus allowing Mr Spencer and is co-accused to never face a the judge and or jury and instead all charges have been dropped.
I have a couple of questions
- Where are the light bulbs?
- Are the two companies that were said to be setup by Kern Spencer real?
- Was there money missing from the light bulb implementation?
- Were funds that were missing, funnelled into other areas including wire transfer?
- Who did or authorized these wire transfer?
- Was Kern Spencer a public officer, when this occurred
- What is corruption in public office?
- Does the Kern Spencer episode looks like corruption
- What happens in other jurisdiction in similar cases as these?
- Did the judge consider precedences in similar cases in the British Commonwealth ( laws same as us) or even in the USA?
So to the media, please tell the public why you lead us to believe this was an actual trail, when clearly it was not so.

Did the evidence support it that was produced in court ?
Kern supposedly tendered invoices to account for all the money. The was a verification process also.
Granted maybe all of the invoices and verification was cooked up….
There was “outrage” at the attempt by one Juror to bribe in the Vybz Kartel trial. Is no one wondering what P@4%’s price was? Kern is a notorious con man!!
Sam,
I cannot allow you to get away with that one , so I have modified your comments
Isn’t he your batchmate?
Not at all!! Lol!
To have dismissed this case on a no case submission is beyond amazing. One of the reasons was delay in the trial ?! Seriously when it was the judge who challenged the DPP’s right to try the case that took 3 years?! This case has concluded three things at least: (1) the crown should have the right of appeal. (2) all trials of such importance should be televised live and (3) Kern Spencer was GUILTY of corruption.See the OCG’s report on same. How does corruption not become illegal?
A black eye for Jamaica the outcome of this case.
Call a spade a spade. The “learned judge” is at the least incompetent or at the worse corrupt.
