Damion (World) Hardy goes on trial next week for six murders.
He can't be that crazy if he wants high-powered lawyer Benjamin Brafman to represent him.

Federal prosecutors revealed that accused drug kingpin Damion (World) Hardy has been hitting on a couple of sexy woman rappers — his ex-girlfriend Lil’ Kim and Foxy Brown — for money so he can hire Brafman.

Hardy, who has been plagued by mental illness since he was arrested in 2004 for running a murderous Brooklyn crew called Cash Money Brothers, goes on trial next week for six murders.

At the same time that he’s been dialing up the musicians from prison, Hardy’s current lawyer, David Ruhnke, has been arguing in Brooklyn Federal Court that the schizo druglord is not competent to stand trial.

There is no dispute that Hardy is a paranoid schizophrenic. Judge Frederic Block previously signed an order allowing prison officials to forcibly medicate Hardy back to reality and the meds have apparently worked.

A government shrink testified Tuesday that Hardy no longer refers to himself as a prophet or the President of the United States. He told the shrink he wants to cut a deal with the government and would be willing to accept a deal for 15 years in prison, but Ruhnke has not set up a meeting.

To get a deal like that, Hardy may need a magician — but he’ll settle for Brafman, a high-end lawyer who has represented Sean (P. Diddy) Combs, NFL star Plaxico Burress and former IMF head Dominique Strauss-Kahn, among others.

Lil' Kim, seen here in 2013, was reportedly engaged with Damion Hardy years ago. She's on the witness list for his trial, but sources said it's unlikely she will be put on the witness stand.


“We don’t got no millionaires in the family, huh?” Hardy lamented to his mother in a recent prison call.

Richard Dudley, a psychiatrist hired by the defense, testified that Hardy’s desire to cut a deal is proof that he is still delusional.

“If you had heard a discussion of the defendant wanting to hire Ben Brafman to represent him (and) asking different people he knew for money so he could hire a lawyer, would that have made any impact on your opinion?” asked Assistant U.S. Attorney James Loonam.

Dudley replied that it would not.

hahaha shyt yeah you can't go off looks at all.

I'n my experience a dude's hood nickname says a lot about his rep. The dude's with the especially corny/cheesy nicknames are usually the wildest nikkas. If you ever meet a dude with a nickname like "Wing-Wing" it's best you keep your distance.

I had a similar experience .I had gotten into it with a dude who tried to play me at a block party.I was seeing this girl but she was throwing p*ssy at other dudes too and he was one of them.I met up with her at the function and dude saw me talk to her,so he came over with about four dudes and straight up tried to pull her away from me.I asked him what fukk his problem was and he looked over at his boys and felt he had the back up to talk greasy but he was in my part of town and I had eyes on me so i could not let this slide..I told him to step off and then his boys walked up but sensed that it was gonna go sideways quick cause they where far frome home and they had eyes on them as well.Dude started giving me that Jedi mind trick bullshyt like" that's my niece man,back off,don't get yourself into trouble over a bytch blah blah.." by this time I'm ready to go dumb on the whole crew, mind you I am 17-18yrs old and stupid,but i got a hammer and nails...All of a sudden this old cat steps up to me and calls me over,I recognise him as one of the OG's in my neigbourhood,everbody called him Father Time(translated from patois) so I oblige.He tells me that he saw the whole thing and he agrees that dude is mad disrespectful but I can't hurt him cause that's his little cousin,he also knows my brothers and knows how they get down so he wants to apologise on behalve of his little cousin and tells me he will be DP'ed but I can't put hands on him.My brothers showed up 30 minutes later and I tell em what happened and kinda hope that we still going after this lil fukkboi but three of my brothers put the brakes on that.His name was Father Time for a reason,dude had time on his side since none of his former rivals where alive anymore...lil cousin fukkboi ended up in a casket four yrs later anyway cause you don't mess with Turkish mobsters,your uncle could be Jesus for all they care..

Lil’ Kim’s alleged gang leader ex goes on trial for role in killings
BY Oren Yaniv
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
Thursday, April 2, 2015, 6:05 AM

A decade after getting indicted, Lil’ Kim’s unhinged ex-boyfriend went to trial Wednesday for a string of executions and other violent crimes.

The charges against Damion (World) Hardy include six murders he is accused of ordering — from the 1998 assassination of a bouncer in a Brooklyn roller skating center to the 2003 killing of a former Mike Tyson bodyguard.

“He handed out death sentences with a simple line: ‘He has to go,’ ” prosecutor Rena Paul said during opening statements in Brooklyn Federal Court. “World’s order was to kill on sight.”

Hardy allegedly founded the Cash Money Brothers gang that ruled over the Lafayette Gardens housing complex in Bed-Stuy.

Defense lawyer David Ruhnke argued that the entire case is hinged on the words of cooperating witnesses — criminals “who laughed at society’s rules their whole lives” and cannot be trusted, he told the jury.

Hardy, 41, once lived in the New Jersey mansion of Lil’ Kim and was reportedly engaged to the rap diva.

Lil’ Kim’s Former Boyfriend Goes On Trial For Allegedly Ordering 6 Murders

Friday April 03, 2015 at 08:00AM PDT | Henry Mansell




The former boyfriend of female rapper Lil’ Kim went to trial this past Wednesday (April 1), a decade after getting indicted, for his role in string of executions and other violent crimes, according to the New York Daily News.

Drug kingpin Damion “World” Hardy faces various charges including the ordering of six murders, ranging from the 1998 assassination of a bouncer in a Brooklyn roller skating center to the 2003 killing of a former Mike Tyson bodyguard.

“He handed out death sentences with a simple line: ‘He has to go,’” prosecutor Rena Paul said during the opening statements in Brooklyn Federal Court. “World’s order was to kill on sight.”

According to the publication, Hardy allegedly founded the Cash Money Brothers gang that ruled over the Lafayette Gardens complex in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood in Brooklyn.

In his defense, Hardy’s current lawyer David Ruhnke said that the entire case is based on the words of cooperating witnesses — criminals “who laughed at society’s rules their whole lives” and cannot be trusted, he reportedly told the jury.

In a story published by the New York Daily Times last week, Hardy, who has been labeled as a “paranoid schizophrenic,” has reportedly been attempting to contact Lil’ Kim and fellow female artistFoxy Brown to ask for money so he can hire high-powered lawyer Benjamin Brafman to represent him.

Witness says Damion Hardy wanted to rob rappers

Dating a famous rapper had illicit benefits for accused drug kingpin Damion (World) Hardy, a government witness testified Monday.

A former hit man for Hardy's Cash Money Brothers crew testified Monday that while promoting Lil' Kim's career and trying to start his own music label, Hardy targeted hip hop parties for robberies.

“World would tell me where there was going to be industry parties and I would gather some guys and we would rob the rappers,” Allen (Boo) Bryant said in Brooklyn Federal Court. “A lot of jewelry was going to be there, expensive jewelry.”

The targets were not identified, and there is no evidence that Lil' Kim had anything to do with the decade-old robbery schemes.

Bryant also testified that Hardy dispatched him to pressure radio DJs into giving his galpal’s tunes maximum play. Bryant recalled that an unidentified Hot 97 DJ had lamented that there was no way he could satisfy the demands, “so World better go ahead and kill me.”

Hardy is charged with six murders tied to his drug operation at the Lafayette Gardens project in Bed Stuy.
