Fetty Wap’s Legal Team Argues Pandemic Pushed Him Into Drugs: ‘No Opportunities To Perform, Thus His Income Was Severely Limited’
According to XXL, the “Trap Queen” rapper’s legal team is attempting to justify the request for the minimum sentence by arguing that the pandemic pushed Fetty Wap into drugs.
“In or about 2020, with the coming of the worldwide pandemic, things began to change for Mr. Maxwell. There were no opportunities to perform, thus his income was severely limited,” Fetty Wap’s attorney Elizabeth Macedonio wrote in a memorandum filed on May 17. “He was sued personally, was going through a divorce, and was involved with a tour manager who was stealing from him. While the bills kept coming in, the money to pay them was running out. At or about the same time, Mr. Maxwell lost his grandparents and several other people who were close to him.”
