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

Posted by ChloƩ A. Hilliard at 4:27 PM, March 27, 2008

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.
