"My review." This book is not a renunciation of anyone and anything this is my own experience as I was led by Jesus to write this work.

Timothy White in his book “ Catch a Fire: The Life of Bob Marley”, alleged that former New York City police officers told him personally, that the CIA, had contracted Carl “ Byah ” Mitchell, (a Seaga goon active in the West Kingston cocaine trade), to plant and instruct the men that led the raid on 56 Hope Road. The involvement of Byah was seen as evidence of a deeply laid CIA/JLP plot, that Michael Manley had “ exposed ” in the press (Operation Werewolf a JLP parliamentarian was caught on tape plotting the overthrow of the Manley government).The gunman Timothy White alleged who led the charge on Hope Road was a Seaga loyalist named Lester “Jim Brown” Coke: (father of Christopher Dudus Coke, whose funeral [Le...
