Bobby Shmurda’s lawyer Howard Greenberg has confirmed that the rapper spent Christmas in jail, and is still incarcerated at Riker’s Island. Riker’s Island is New York City’s main jail complex. Originally, there were stories surfacing that Shmurda’s (real name Acquille Pollard) label Epic Records would post his $2 million dollar bond. According to Greenberg, “that wasn’t the case”. Greenberg continued stating “We’re just trying to put something else together now.”
If found guilty of five of the eight charges accused of, Pollard could spend between eight and twenty five years in prison. Greenberg stated “I’ve analyzed the indictment down to the bone. It’s just talking Bobby shouldn’t be charged with anything. I have told your colleagues in the media, the indictment is a bunch of b*******. The first 41 pages are just kids talking, in not even English. Bobby isn’t charged with anything except talk in the indictment.”
Greenberg is one of the most prominent criminal defense lawyer’s in Brooklyn.
