A new indictment alleges that Young Thug and Birdman, along with their associate Jeffrey Winfrey (aka Pewee Roscoe), conspired in a plot to kill Lil Wayne. According to WSBTV’s Mike Petchenik, the situation originates back in April when Weezy’s tour bus was target to a shooting, which occurred as the artist was leaving a parking lot of an Atlanta venue following a show. Other details revealed by Petchenik specify that Winfrey is the main suspect in the crime, but includes both Young Thug and Birdman as the ones who orchestrated the plot. Thug’s recent music video for his track “With That,” in which Winfrey is displayed holding a firearm, will also be used as evidence. In addition to the threatening visual, the song’s lyrical content also contains mentions of Lil Wayne. Take a look at Petchenik’s tweets regarding the situation below.
