Liberia: Supreme Court’s Sentencing of Prophet Key Sparks National Debate on Free Speech
Hence, his actions constitute contempt of the Honorable Supreme Court and are punishable as such.”Who Is Prophet Key? When the Supreme Court initiated contempt proceedings against him for verbally attacking the Court and the Chief Justice’s mother, Prophet Key admitted guilt and pleaded for mercy. The Supreme Court initiated the contempt proceedings, adjudicated the matter, and imposed punishment—without the possibility of appeal to a higher domestic authority. “I expect the Supreme Court to address the issue of corruption in our courts,” he stated bluntly. He noted that throughout years of political tension and uncertainty, Liberians have consistently relied on the Supreme Court to resolve disputes peacefully.

Justice Ministry Accused oF Undermining Supreme Court Order
By Amos HarrisResidents and traditional leaders of Smith Town, Gbarpolu County, have leveled serious allegations against Liberia’s Ministry of Justice, accusing the body of deliberately undermining a Supreme Court mandate. According to community leaders, a definitive mandate issued by the Supreme Court has remained unenforced for an extended period. Despite the high court’s ruling, the Ministry of Justice has reportedly failed to provide a clear legal explanation for the delay. Community advocates argue that these funds are desperately needed to improve education, healthcare, and basic social services in Smith Town and its neighboring villages. At a time when the administration is striving to project an image of accountability and institutional integrity, the defiance of a Supreme Court order stands as a significant contradiction.
