Megaman to face retrial over Colin Scarlett murder charge

Megaman will face a retrial after a jury failed to reach a verdict on his involvement in Colin Scarlett’s murder, while Carl Morgan was given a life sentence.

So Solid Crew's Megaman, aka Dwayne Vincent, is to face a retrial after a jury failed to reach a verdict on his involvement in the murder of Colin Scarlett in November last year. As previously reported, Megaman was charged with murder and accused of instructing his friend, Carl Morgan, to shoot Morgan's love-rival Scarlett. Vincent will now appear in court again on 20 March.

Meanwhile, Morgan has been found guilty, and was handed a life sentence on Friday, when the judge in the case, Brian Parker, ordered him to serve a minimum of thirty years before he can be considered for parole. He told Morgan: "The prosecution describe this as a revenge execution borne out of humiliation and I agree. Three bullets hit Scarlett. He did return fire but there is no evidence of them finding their mark or anyone on your side receiving injury. You have taken away a young life and although his friends and family will get used to his death, they will never get over it."
