Lil Wayne Might Have To Testify In Young Thug's Ongoing YSL RICO Trial

[LevelUp]

Lil Wayne might be called to testify in Young Thug‘s ongoing YSL Rico trial in relation to his 2015 tour bus shooting.

According to a report by AllHipHop, Fulton County prosecutors tried to play videos of Weezy speaking about Thug in the courtroom on Wednesday (May 1), but Judge Ural Glanville refused to allow it unless the Young Money rapper testified himself.



The prosecution is looking to use the 2015 shooting against Young Thug, as he reportedly hired affiliate PeeWee Roscoe to carry it out.

Roscoe was eventually sentenced to 10 years in prison and 10 years of probation over the matter, but his conviction was overturned in 2018.

While Lil Wayne making it into the courtroom is not guaranteed, the driver of his tour bus at the time, Alvin Lewis, is set to take the stand on Monday (May 6). He previously sued Thug, Birdman and Roscoe over the shooting in 2016.

While videos of Wayne discussing the matter may not make it into evidence, Judge Glanville previously ruled that Fulton County prosecutors will be able to use a long conversation Thug had with authorities in July 2015 amid the tour bus shooting’s investigation.

Thug’s attorneys attempted to have the results of that talk declared inadmissible for the RICO trial – which at the time had not yet started – arguing that the interview with law enforcement violated Thug’s right to counsel and statements he gave “were not voluntarily made.”

Glanville, however, disagreed as he ruled that Thug didn’t actually have a right to counsel in that situation, because even though he was in police custody, he hadn’t been charged in the case the authorities were asking him about.

I feel like this shyt wasn't talked about enough... well it was at the time but after 3 months it was forgotten. Really all we've heard Thug say is that Wayne big leagued him when they first met. They both notorious addicts. Does that alone lead to thug having his bus shot up

I’m really surprised that Birdman has ducked some charges himself behind that situation. Wayne isn’t gonna rat though, they need to really free Thug because this isn’t a RICO, it’s a hyped up drug possession and gun case for that switch.

Prolly not anything crazy tbh

Been watching the ysl case the past few weeks and the prosecution is just trying to throw anything they can at the wall to see what sticks, literally just dump all types of nonsense so the jury locks him up off of perception and not actual evidence


Today, they took a phone call of thug telling lil Woody (star witness) that he could hook him up with a lawyer to help him with some probation issues he had a while back, this shyt had absolutely NOTHING to do with any violence or ysl related fukkery, just a simple "hey you don't know any lawyers? I can help you out breh no problem, you shoulda been doing your community service tho"

They tried to edit only the part with him offering the lawyer, make it seem like they were talking about the RICO case, and said that will help the Jury see that thug is a gang boss using lawyers to protect his goons

the judge and thugs lawyer were at that shyt



With that logic he can't even help his own parent with getting a lawyer because that somehow means they're in on illegal YSL stuff Judge called them out multiple times for reaching today cuz it got ridiculous.


The state of Georgia in there making FOOLS of themselves the judge himself is gonna get called to the stand too cuz he had an illegal meeting with the witness a few weeks ago and one of the lawyers snitched to thugs lawyer
