Lil Boosie Beats the Rap! ~by Legal Pub

As we always say, suspects are presumed innocent unless otherwise proven in a court of law.  Exhibit one, rapper Lil Boosie, a.k.a Torrence Hatch, was recently found not guilty of first-degree murder. The "Bad Azz" rapper was accused of soliciting Marlo Mike, a.k.a Michael Louding, to murder Terry Boyd for $2,800.

Boyd, 35, was died in October 2009. Louding, allegedly originally admitted killing Boyd but later said that he had been forced by police into a confession. Prosecutors tried to tie Louding's statements, cell phone records and Lil Boosie's gun-loving rap lyrics (i.e."five dead in six months" and "Yo Marlo, he drive a Monte Carlo, dat' bitch grey, I want him dead today, here go the cake") together as evidence of Lis Boosie's involvement. However, all the king's men and all the king's horses ( almost 30 witnesses) could not convince a jury of nine women and three men that Lil Boosie was guilty. 

Boosie has not always been so fortunate.  In 2011, Boosie was convicted of trafficking illegal substances into two separate correctional facilities.  Lil Boosie was sentenced to eight years in prison, a sentence he is still serving.
