It has been revealed that rapper Lil Duke has reached a plea deal in the YSL RICO case. According to New York Times reporter Joe Coscarelli, both Lil Duke and Slimelife Shawty were released from jail after reaching plea deals in their case.
This comes after it was revealed that YSL co-founder Walter Murphy and Gunna were also released after entering into an Alford plea deal. Gunna was given 1 year served in his five-year suspended sentence, which is subject to various conditions, including 500 hours of community service.
Both Gunna and Slimelife Shawty have been criticized online by people claiming they ratted to get released. Slimelife Shawty reacted to the claims on social media, writing, "Yea I’m home, ain have to snitch to get here d***head. I admitted you slime life was a gang cus it ain’t illegal for no group to be a gang look it up that don’t hurt nobody anybody can be a gang, plus the founder already admitted it stupid. What I pose to say if a founder admitted it. What I den do was say Yes it’s a fact people in ysl commit crimes like murder and etc cus ion no nun bout that."
Gunna's lawyer, Steve Sadow, responded to DJ Vlad's take on Gunna's Alford plea deal, as Sadow told VladTV, "The deal I made for Gunna has 'built in every protection for everyone.' It doesn't hurt anyone that still involved in this case. If Gunna didn't take this plea deal, he would have waited 6-8 months in jail only for a jury to find him not guilty."
