Remy Ma's Victim's Lawyer: Stop the Hip Hop Violence

Categories: Follow-Up

Lauren Raysor, the attorney for Makeda Barnes-Joseph, Remy Ma's shooting victim issued the following statement about Remy's assault conviction.

"Today justice has been served. This process has been draining upon my client. From the beginning, the defense has tried to portray Ms. Ma as the victim. The jury saw through it and has sent a message to those in the recording industry who do not feel they should abide by the same rules as the rest of us. It is time to put an end to this senseless cycle of violence that is glorified by Hip-Hop marketing."
