Again!?
Earlier today, I predicted that some new flavor of absurdity would follow the YSL RICO case within the next appearance or two. I was overly optimistic — more shit has already hit the fan. This time it isn’t Copeland, it’s the (alleged) Big Honcho Thugger’s lawyer:

Now if that isn’t a zealous defense, I don’t know what is! Steel’s contempt of court stems from his refusal to disclose an information source.
Goes to show rappers aren’t the only ones powered by a strong “stop snitching” sentiment.
