Jamaican Popular dancehall entertainer, Tommy Lee Sparta along with O’Brian Smith, was freed of lottery scamming related charges in the Home Circuit Court in downtown Kingston yesterday.
Both were arrested as a result of breaches of the Law Reform (Fraudulent Transaction) (Special Provisions) Act, 2013. They were charged with possession of identity information, while Tommy Lee, whose real name is Leroy Russell, was additionally charged with unlawful use of premises.
The men walked free from the high court yesterday after the presiding Judge Carolyn Tie upheld a no-case submission made by their lawyer, Ernest Smith.
