Dublin rapper confesses to shooting in song

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

I mean Dublin, Georgia.

From the Dublin Courier Herald:

A Dublin rapper who was convicted in August of shooting a man twice and then sharing a rap song he wrote about the shooting was sentenced on Monday to 40 years.

Judge Donny Gillis sentenced Rico Todriquez Wright, 25, on two counts of aggravated assault for shooting Chad Blue, 28, of Dublin. Wright must serve 20 years of his sentence in prison, the rest on probation.

[. . .]

“Yeah, he recorded that before he went to trial,” said Blue, shaking his head, after Wright’s conviction. “Can you believe that?”
