Andre ‘Pim Pim’ Henry, who is jointly charged with entertainers Vybz Kartel aka Addi Innocent and Vanessa Saddler, Aka ‘Gaza Slim’ Aka Vanessa Bling, in the attempting to pervert the course of justice case, was yesterday advised by the resident magistrate to get legal aid because he is broke and he couldn’t pay the legal fees no more.
Henry, who was recently abandon by his lawyer because of monetary challenges, was scheduled to appear in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court yesterday with his new lawyer after the court was previously informed that he was in discussions with a new attorney.

However, when he appeared in court he told Resident Magistrate in charge that his lawyer was on her way, but after a very long wait the lawyer failed to appear.
The court was later informed by attorney Tom Tavares-Finson, who represents Vybz Kartel, real name Adidja Palmer, that Henry still had some issues that he needed to sort out before he can retain the services of a lawyer.
Resident Magistrate Wolfe-Reece then told Henry that she “can’t keep setting dates with a hope and a wish”, advising him to explore the option of legal aid if he is unable to afford a lawyer.
The matter was then set for this Friday for the court to be notified whether or not Henry has settled his legal representation.
Henry, Vybz Kartel and Saddler will be tried on October 27 on charges of attempting to pervert the course of justice and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.
