Bobby Shmurda just pled guilty in his murder conspiracy case.

Shmurda, has been jailed since December 2014 in a case where more than 15 defendants were charged with various crimes, including murder, attempted murder and drug dealing.

The rapper was originally charged with conspiracy to commit murder and several weapons and drug charges associated with gangs.

According to the deal, Shmurda pled to conspiracy to possess weapons and possession of a weapon. The other charges were dismissed, and he'll get 7 years in prison and 5 years probation.

A TMZ producer was in court, and heard Shmurda's lawyer speak with his client and other defendants, imploring them to take the deal because they'd never get a sympathetic jury and they were facing life in prison.

Shmurda's case became a cause celebre, where other rappers were calling for his release.

This is what the real life version of raps looks like. This is the result.
Look at the system eating off of a lost young man.

Look at all those suits stand over him, like lions feeding on a gazelle.

Now the state gets to eat off him for 7 years.

I'm not too versed on the law, but that is a serious deal.

From life in prison to only seven years? :patrice:

Does that mean he/they rolled on people? :patrice:

He snitched and the state offered him a shorter sentence. He's really only doing 2 years time in prison since he has 5 years' probation.

It means their fate was in the hands of 12 Jurors and his lawyer thinks he's so much of an animal they wouldn't stand a chance of being found innocent so take the quick way out and get lucky number 7
