Young Dolph’s Murder Case Remains Puzzling Following Latest Update

by

The murder case of beloved Memphis rapper Young Dolph continues to raise a lot of eyebrows. Over just the course of this year, the trial has seen multiple delays, and it’s led to a lot of people calling out the Justice System. In fact, the MC’s partner, Mia Jaye, went on an explosive rant venting her and a lot of others assumed frustrations. “My love’s life was taken… And to be left behind to see no one be held accountable in the [court] of law for the act… Is INS*NE. Our family has witnessed lenient bonds being granted, absurd requests for the defendants to get a venue motion, freedom, more time to create a stronger defense, witnessed songs made, defendants enjoying life while on H.A… All while our loved one is 6feet deep”.

Unfortunately, her, the rest Dolph’s loved ones, and fans alike are going to have to witness even more court hearings. According to AllHipHop, the hopeful final trial will go down on Monday, September 23. Originally, this date was only going to be for the alleged shooters, Justin Johnson and Cornelius Smith. However, after an appearance in court yesterday by the supposed organizer of the rapper’s murder, Hernandez Govan, he will be joining Johnson and Smith.

However, it’s unknown if Govan will be tried alone on the same day, or alongside his alleged assailants. Judge Jennifer Mitchell gave off the impression that it’s the latter, though. So, local Memphis news station FOX 13 reached out to prosecutors to get any sort of confirmation on the matter. However, the results were futile. “We are unable to release those specifics at this time – in order to not compromise investigation”, they said. Govan, Johnson and Smith all are staring at first-degree murder charges.

NBA YoungBoy Receives Sentence For Federal Gun Case

by

NBA YoungBoy is now heading to prison according to a new report from AllHipHop. This sentence stems from the ongoing federal gun case that was originally handed down to the prolific rapper back in Louisiana in 2020. If you remember, he was “indicted for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and possession of a firearm not registered in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record in 2021”. This case has been going on for quite some time and it was eventually transferred over to his most recent state of residence, Utah. That happened because NBA YoungBoy took a guilty plea deal back in mid to late August.

“I, defendant, have been informed that a Felony Indictment is pending against me in the above designated case. I wish to plead guilty to the offense charged, to consent to the disposition of the case in the District of Utah in which I am present, and to waive trial in the above captioned District”. Prior to the reveal of what his prison sentence would be, there were reports saying that he could’ve faced up to 10 years. Today, is an entirely different story, though.

YB’s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, says that he’s receiving just 27 months behind bars in addition to five years of probation. That’s quite the far cry from the original predicition and there’s even a chance that stay could be shorter. “Global plea 27 months… will be out with credit time served in prob 12 months”, Cohen said. He also feels this because “the case in Utah is weak and the Federal case had all kinds of trouble”. Obviously, while going to prison is never ideal, this is as big of a win that the rapper could’ve gotten.

Diddy Loses $100 Million Judgment Against Sexual Assault Accuser

by

Diddy will reportedly have to pay out a $100 million default judgment to Michigan inmate Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith, who has accused the Bad Boy mogul of sexual assault during a Detroit party in 1997. Lenawee County Circuit Court Judge Anna Marie Anzalone made the ruling in court on Monday, according to the Detroit Metro Times. The update comes after Cardello-Smith filed a motion for a preliminary injunction to stop Diddy from selling his properties, including the Los Angeles mansion he recently listed for sale. Homeland Security agents had raided the property back in March.

Cardello-Smith claimed in a previous hearing that Diddy once visited him in prison in an attempt to convince him to settle the case. The Detroit Metro Times reports he showed records with Diddy’s name on the visitation list. “[Diddy] stated that he would make me an offer to end the case and what happened to me because of other things that he stated he has going on in his life that require his money right now,” he told the judge, as noted by AllHipHop. He added that Diddy said “he wants to sell everything off,” and promised to pay him $2.3 million to drop the case.

As for putting his Los Angeles home on the market, Cardello-Smith remarked: “He did it the day after I served him the suit.” He further alleged that Diddy admitted he would have a better chance of dealing with the default judgment than battling the case. “I said, ‘So you want to hide your money,” Cardello-Smith recalled, to which Diddy allegedly responded: “‘Yeah. You know how we get down.’”

Diddy is reportedly attempting to sell the mansion for $61 million. It’s located on what is known as “Billionaire’s Row,” and boats Kylie Jenner, Jimmy Iovine, and more celebrities as neighbors. He is also facing numerous other lawsuits related to sexual misconduct but has firmly denied all of the allegations. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy on HotNewHipHop.
