Diddy
I Want Young Thug’s Lawyer Defending Me!!!
Published
Diddy is seeking to bolster his legal defense team by enlisting the services of attorney Brian Steel, well-known for his defense of Young Thug in court.
Legal documents obtained by TMZ reveal that Brian Steel is seeking admission to practice law in the Southern District of New York to assist in Diddy’s trial defense.
Brian Steel’s representation of Young Thug in the rapper’s YSL RICO case has garnered him recognition in the legal field.
Despite initial reports of Diddy’s camp searching for a Black female attorney to join the trial team, it seems that Brian Steel has emerged as a potential candidate.
Additional reports indicate that prominent attorney Mark Geragos will play a significant role in Diddy’s case, alongside lead counsels Marc Agnifilo and Teny Geragos.
Recent changes in Diddy’s defense team saw attorney Anthony Ricco departing in February, with Brian Steel now looking to join just before the trial commences.
Jury selection for Diddy’s federal trial is set for May 5, with opening statements following a week later. Marc and Teny have requested a two-week delay in the trial’s start.
