Do you smoke weed? This lawyer is burying Lil Jeff. You really think the jury is buying “Thug” stands for “ Truly, Honest, Under, God”? Do you think the jury is buying “Pushing P” stands for pushing positivity? Are you buying that? Right, right, right, right….I can tell when I listen to his music that’s what he’s pushing, they all just good ol’ choir boys. Right, right, right…
Pushin Positivity was a reach, but did you watch the entire opening statement. The man basically exposed the prosecution for presenting BS "overt acts" that had nothing to do with Thug or lacked context. Not a single one of those overt acts proves that he was running a violent gang. And how did they fail to mention that the mruder he's accused of ordering was done by someone that was jumped by the victim a few days earlier. That's clear motive for YSL Woody, don't see any motive for Thug. If this is all the prosecution has, he will be found Not Guilty.@@GoodWindowParrot
I hate how much blame we really have for black peoples lives, and we don't take any ownership. Young Thug was absolutely affected by poverty. Most white people can't even grasp it. Really, that can't grasp it or they are too much of a pussy too. For all we did to black people, we should be taxed every paycheck and call it the white asshole tax.Then black people should get the payments every month. Like social security but before retirement. They should get a free house and a car every 20 years cause we owe billions in free labor that we stole. Maybe then, I'd say that he has to be responsible for his actions. Only if we gave everything back that we took from them. Other than that, aside from rapists and child molesters, every black person should be set free from prison. When we die, I think most white people are going to shocked when God tells them that they were disgusting human beings and they deserve hell but because of His mercy they'll get what they never gave black people and thats a shame cause that's not justice. I think Jesus will make it right in the afterlife, but I don't know.God is just too damn forgiving for His own good sometimes. Why isn't there a fundraiser every year for black people? Why hasn't that happened yet? If we're not going to pay the white asshole tax, then fundraisers should be happening all the time. Actors and singers should do a fucking show and raise money for black people who are still poor and that's the majority because we made sure of that. Black people......I'm so sorry for everything we've done. The only thing I can do is put some money on Young Thugs books so he can eat well in prison. In fact, I'm going to do that now. Forever in your debt, and I wish I could ask God to get you off, but He doesn't intervene on free will, so you're probably fucked. I really am sorry for everything. Makes me sick. Alright, I'm going to put that money on your books.
Fuck this shit guys music is music aight I'm from Russia and I know a lot to be quite sure that u guys don't wanna bring the lyrics in a court I think so
Brian literally broke down the case, and rebutted everything the prosecution was going to throw at them during the opening statement. Instead of defending, that man went on attack. During the case itself he is not allowed to "testify", but he did it during the opening statement - it's technically not evidence, but it will stay with the jury. Great strategy.
What was good about it??? He literally gave some of the dumbest excuses trynna explain some of the dumb shit thug put on the internet…He dragging lil Wayne in this for what??? I just wanted to be admired and loved like lil Wayne so this is who I become? Talking to these jurors like they are slow…I don’t have the perfect defense for this case but I can guarantee you this slime ass is cooked!!! and This Brian Steele dude is stealing people’s money if this is what they paying for…🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Brian Steel really love his job. Really glad he took this case with Jeffery. Jeffery has good connection and cash flow to still afford him. A blessing .
I'm a sixty year old conservative white male from Kentucky This is a miscarriage of Justice in the worst way. Something needs to be done about these over zealous prosecution's
Glad someone said it, there is very little hard evidence connecting him to actual crimes the use of song lyrics to try to slander his character is crazy. Art should be totally separate and kept out of court unless it's directly related to a specific crime
I’m old and never heard of Young Thug aside from a statement he made against Trump (which made me dislike him) and even I can see what a total scam this trial is.
Yes I'm a 50 year old white woman in Alabama and I am disgusted by the state and the DAs office. They need to put a RICO in the DAs office for this. False statements embezzlement intimidating witnesses coercion the office of Fani Willis needs to be stopped. These poor men who were children at the time of when they are going back to. Sickens me
Please see; Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 82, the U.S. Supreme Court: "Prosecutorial Misconduct" refers to the unethical or illegal tactics by "Prosecutors" in a criminal case, such as: withholding exculpatory evidence from the defense, making false statements, or. presenting inadmissible evidence to the jury, offering evidence they know to be false or inadmissible (including encouraging witnesses to lie on the stand), and not limited to using improper arguments. This (Alleged RICO case) is a direct example of "Abuse of Authority" fueled by District Attorney (Fani Willis) in hopes of some sort of Political gain/Popularity Contest.
I am far into this case and decided to go back to opening statements (which I missed). Now, thank you to another viewer I understand “Brady” and through Steele, the case. Ms. Love has proven Brady.
1:28:30 Rap isn’t meant for brainwashing, is art, like reading a book, watching at a painting, reading poetry, going to a museum of arts, going to college getting a degree, it’s romantic, it’ll make you laugh, cry, and love, it’s absolutely non-violent, it heals, it’s all rainbow and unicorns, it’s about bringing all people together, it’s about loving and accepting every other art, like country and pop, it does no harm. Thank you for explaining that.
It is really sad he worked his butt of from a young age to get out of poverty for not just him but friends and family and made it one in billion chance and these black folks are doing everything they can to take that from him. The should be ashamed of themselves. Sick
1 hour plus opening statement damn 😰 my guy addressing the bullshit 😂 my lawyers opening statement was 2 mins on a double homicide. I looked at this motherfucker like damn homie the prosecutor just tried to bury me before the evidence is even shown 😂 he walked up said “play the video. Self defense.” And then sat down. I guess sometimes less is more. The jury like wow he sure does seem confident
He sounds very effective to me. Got to the point with few words and everybody understood his point. Now, you are out here with us commenting on RU-vid posts. Congrats, sir.
I do not like the prosecutor. She never allows JW’s lawyers to finish ANYTHING! she has a objection to and for everything! I hope JW SPANK this case so he can get on wit his life. And leave all the people who turned on him in the rear view💯💪🏿
@user-vc4og8tn6z so far. This is only week 2. It's gonna be like pieces of a puzzle. When all the pieces come together I think they ALL will be found guilty. Ion think the state just said "oh Thug is rapping about crime let's go get him" They have proof that ties the lyrics to actual crimes that YSL committed.
What crap. Black pride is based on Americans who despite economic disadvantage mustered their courage and strength to learn, to grow, and to achieve. The 'black pride' this white lawyer tries to sell to the jury is the volunteer victimhood of cowards and bullies who put all their energy into beating the 'system' and 'getting over' on everyone, including the black brothers and sisters of America who don't want 'thug lives' ... they want rich, peaceful and honorable lives without the dope, without the violence, and without the charade of pretending they are something they are not.
hes really innocent this is is about politics.... using rap lyrics in court and unfortanulety black art is being targeted ..... you can be a clown make jokes like @djakademiks but understand this is politics
This is some "Better call Saul" stuff...but very good opening statement, good job for now, this is lawyer that costs money-diference between public defender and paid one. (No hard Feelings)
Most people can't afford this kind of lawyer. They think they're going to get this kind of defense when they pay for a lawyer but most wind up paying for a defense a public defender could most likely have provided. I've been sober for going on four years, spent plenty of time in a court room. There isn't one situation where I look back and think a high priced lawyer could have got me off or got me a better deal than the public defender.
He will be set free..... Hunna dipped out for a reason and I know the reason let me know when you do. I was raised in the system so I know why gunna dipped out ... ⚡
No. Among punks there are always the boss punks and punk punks. When the punk punks get caught they are gonna' rat out the boss punks and that's the silver lining of punks.@@Godasecond321
Yea they pleaded guilty because they are dumb as fuck and took 15 year probation deals like idiots when all they had to do was not say a word and watch the prosecutions case crumble
@@uMADden yeah with probations only and no additional time served. That's worth it opposed to spending 2-3 years locked waiting for this trial to end. Still weak evidence
Rap is an Art form as is the fashion! Rap is the most listened music to around the world & all over the world people are emulating the culture! Freeyoungthug
The whole court is a joke. the defense is a bunch of guilty punks represented by woke wimp lawyers mugging for the cameras and tryin' to be all cool. The prosecution is behind in her game and wasting Rudyard Kippling on the jury is just one example. The judge seems like he should be in command but despite his tough talk the defense is playing him like a cheap fiddle. And that stupid earring is just ridiculous. AMERICA IS IN SERIOUS JUDICIAL PERIL AND IT AIN'T JUST THIS TRIAL. THINK: JANUARY 6, HUNTER BIDEN, THE BORDER, JOE BIDEN, ALL THE WOKE LIBERAL GOVERNORS, MAYORS, POLICE CHIEFS AND SHERIFFS, PROSECUTORS AND LEGISLATORS.
They also tried to do the same shit to lil wayne around this time when they searched his private plane. They been after rappers they think they influence a lifestyle yet the lifestyle is what influenced them to make music for the streets but the da trying to demonize them thats just my opinion
Look, knowing your mother and father we are sure you have brothers all over the god foresaken planet, but that still doesn't mean we are all your bro'.@@DkbossRtbackk
Parents should have to pass something similar to a drivers license exam etc to have kids these days, we’re at maximum capacity. I, my ancestors, living relatives we have all shared clothes too, and the house I am currently in is cold. Ppl PROTEST defund the police etc and then use this like it’s supposed to be valid evidence.
