The plot has thickened in the Slowbucks Summer Jam assault and robbery drama, as Slow is now officially investigating 50 Cent's involvement in the altercation that occurred on stage while 50 and Fabolous were performing.  Following the altercation, Meek Mill exchanged words with his artist Louie V. Gutta on Twitter, after Gutta tried to throw subliminal shade at Slow over what happened.  After much backlash, Slow took to Instagram to defend his own honor and sent a message to his haters.  Many fans plugged 50 as being a potential mastermind behind the assault, and he engaged fans in a Q&A session on Reddit, where he dismissed having any involvement in the altercation.  However, it appears as though Slowbucks isn't buying 50's denial, and is now conducting an investigation on him.

50 is not the only person being investigated, as Slowbucks and his Civil Investigator John P. Bostany, have their sights on various individuals who might've been involved in the plot to rob him in front of a crowd of thousands of Hip-Hop fans.  He visited the Bostany Law Firm today, June 5th, and together with Civil Investigator John P. Bostany, they have been mapping out possible reasons for the attack and trying to determine who exactly was involved.

Mr. Bostany believes that part of the motivation behind the Summer Jam attack, was to damage Slowbucks' urban clothing brand by shaming him in the form of a public beating and robbery.

"They know he is the founder of Slowbucks, the #1 urban brand on the rise today," Mr. Bostany stated.  "They want to hurt that brand and they are trying to hurt that brand we are going to put an end to that. We're here, I'm a Trademark attorney, I'm a copyright attorney and I fight unfair competition."

Mr. Bostany also believes that 50 lied to Angie Martinez yesterday, June 4th, when he claimed to have no knowledge of the assault and robbery that occurred on the same stage that he was performing on.

"I looked at the videos and I heard 50′s interview on [Hot] 97 by Angie, who did an excellent job. Questioning him and I heard his responses and his demeanor. If you look at him he says 'oh I was looking at the crowd.' I didn't know what was going on behind me. I was happy that day.' But if you look at him when he's telling that story, he doesn't look happy. He doesn't look like he wants to talk about it. If you look at the videos, every single one, whether he's the one picking up the chain or not is irrelevant. His body is facing what's going on and then he turns around, in the middle of it all, and faces the crowd."

Mr. Bostany went on to praise Slow for his decision to step up and take legal action against 50 and anyone else involved, as he believes this is a sign for the future that violent actions such as the Summer Jam incident should not be tolerated by anyone, not even celebrities.

"He had the courage and the strength to come here and remind everyone that no matter how rich or powerful some might become, how popular they may be, they still are not above the law."

There has been no statement regarding the monetary amount that Slowbucks is seeking from 50 or anyone else involved, and Slow has gone on to explain his decision to seek legal action in order to gain "Brand Justice," rather than "Criminal Justice."  Fans have expressed mixed reactions to the announcement that Slowbucks is now seeking legal action, with some fans supporting his move from a business standpoint, while others have been pinning the unfortunate "snitch" label on him.
