In 1987, Tosh appeared to be on the way to a career revival. He was awarded a Grammy for Best Reggae Performance in 1987 for No Nuclear War. However on September 11, 1987 three men came to his house demanding money, and when Tosh replied that he did not have any with him he was shot dead, along with disk jockey Jeff "Free I" Dixon. The leader was Dennis 'Leppo' Lobban, a man whom Peter had befriended and tried to help find work after a long jail sentence. Leppo turned himself over to the authorities, and was tried and convicted in the shortest jury deliberation in Jamaican history: eleven minutes. He was sentenced to death, but his sentence was commuted in 1995 and he remains in prison. Neither of his two alleged accomplices were found, though rumors persist that both were gunned down in the streets.

  • Well that's a fair ...

    Well that's a fair question. I assume because Petah spoke the truth, exposing the shitsym quite effectivly and was unyielding in his faith and beliefs that he upset alot of establishment types.....yah know? That's playing with fire. Tosh had alot of intestinal fortide and a good set of balls. Really one of a kind. Another cut of the same cloth, the great Fela Kuti....yah mon
