Buchanan explains, “he’s in a cell, and if you can picture a brick oven because that’s how those cells are built, the ventilation is next to none,” Buchanan claimed. Buchanan told the news station he visited his client on May 29 2023, and he has no air circulation, no water, and a bucket for a toilet.

“His neck was swollen. If you think of a shirt that is about 18.5 inches in the neck area, you couldn’t close the collar on his neck, and that’s how bad it is at this moment… His face is actually swollen. And one other thing: He always wears glasses; in this condition, that causes his eyes to protrude,” Buchanan said of the Kingston, Jamaica native.
Vybz Kartel was sentenced to life in prison in 2014 for the murder of his friend Clive “Lizard” Williams. He will be eligible for parole after serving at least 35 years in prison.
