Had him coming in from the back 40!
I wanna see Shannon lawyer part! 👀👀 time stamp anyone
Starts @ 1:09:40
Jeffery's attorney sounds like he is speaking at his funeral… not a trial 😂
The idea he "didn't need money" is absurd, that isn't how greed and gangs work. The mob bosses also didn't need money. It's about power, rivals, control of low level criminals ect.
It’s taking a while for day 42 to drop so I thought I’d share a few words with the people. Man , leave them kids alone . You got wickedness in that courthouse. FBI agents, informants, special deals, cops suffering from boredom preying on their favorite rappers. Let those young little guys go!
Steel – Members of the jury, my client, a young minstrel truly humble under God, stands before you accused, by filthy cops full of jelly, of bustin' the most serious rhymes ever seen in the State of Georgia, and to that one he is happy to plead guilty. He is of course otherwise completely innocent, as you will at the end of this trial all agree. I rest my case!
Omg he done got faf
Free big bro need more music
Aizen was behind this court trial
Ddf
Give her schrift Y for "The Yapper"
Take that shyt to mf trial!
Nah Bro If I EVER hear my lawyer make an anime reference ill kms fr
I thought they weren’t showing faces.
What time does trial start
Kendrick’s lawyer is AMAZING wth he made so many good points in the opening, I do think this trial is a free speech trial. We have the right to say whatever but it shouldn’t be used against you in court of law
This judge never start on time
Yeah he is going to jail💀
Save the soul society, young truly humble under god!
Love that everyone is referencing the lady who use bleach in her opening
If you are only able to watch one opening statement, this is the one worth watching 5:33:44 –6:26:08
blud isn't going to soul society with that one
5:51:02 This defense attorney is the right one 💯 if i was in a situation, I would want an attorney that zealously advocates for me like that.
Alright I'll let that sink in
