The Cliff View Pilot reports:
Fellow “Love & Hip Hop” star Yandy Smith was among those in the courtroom who leapt to their feet and stomped, clapped, shouted and sobbed, raising arms skyward, as the verdicts to the eight individual charges were read just before 4 p.m.The trial started last week and the state rested its case yesterday. The jury began deliberating this morning around 11:30am. At about 3:00pm jurors were given the option to continue deliberating on Monday since the courthouse was schedule to close because of the snowstorm hitting the east coast. Instead, the remained and returned with their verdict before 4:00pm.
“I love you!” one of them shouted to the jurors, who returned the verdicts after a few hours of deliberations.
Sheriff's officers then asked them to return to order.
When they wouldn't, Presiding Superior Court Judge Liliana DeAvila-Silebbi directed the officer to escort the group out of her courtroom.
Harris took the stand and denied all of his accuser's accusations, which included receiving oral s-x for cash. was charged with seven counts of child abuse and with promoting pr0stitution. Had he not been acquitted, he would have faced up to 20 years in prison.
However, this is just the first hurdle for Harris. He still has drug trafficking case against him in Rochester to deal with. Now that the New Jersey trial is over, early next week he will be extradited to the upstate city where is accused of being involved in pushing $2.5 million worth of heron and yayo.
Smith took to Twitter and Instagram to share the news. "Truth always comes out...NOT GUILYY!!!!! [sic]," she tweeted.
She then posted a photo of Mendeecees and his son (see next page) that read, "No matter how much they tried to rip you of your pride, defame your name, degrade you...you kept your faith in God and told me to keep my head up. So I did. Not Guilty! I say it again NOT GUILTY!!!!"
Let us know if you think justice has been served in the comments.
That doesn't mean he didn't do it.
ReplyDeleteExactly when this first came out Yandy didn't have anything to say, now she all online talking about how innocent he is. She better pray she doesn't fall victim to this man , he has alot going on and she shouldn't turn a blind eye to the things he's accused of.
DeleteI GO WITH MY GUT FEELING and my CREEP-O meter is on HIGH alert
ReplyDeleteI agree with all the comments above. R. Kelly was found not guilty too, and WE all know...GUILTY. something just doesn't sit well with me about this dude. Plus, that pic looks creepy as hell.
ReplyDeleteThis guy looks like a molestor. Y'all are right, his face has "CREEP" written all over it.
ReplyDeleteThe jury heard the evidence....so I accept their decision.
ReplyDeleteI remember being on jury duty for a child sexual assault case & we all believed the man did it, but there was no evidence to convict him. God will handle the guilty people whom the law sets free. Ijs
DeleteIf the justice system went by "the way someone looked" Im pretty sure the jails would be more over flowing than they are now and remember you look creepy to someone too. Wtf
ReplyDeleteYandy is that u? CTFU Something ain't right about dude.
DeleteLOL @ Anon 8:55.
DeleteAnon 3:54, you're right, somewhat. This man looks creepy. I'm not suggesting that the justice system should decide someone's fate based on how they look (although, your lawyer will suggest you come to court dressed a certain way in order to LOOK like you have some damn sense), but this man just looks shady. Yes, you SHOULD listen to all of the evidence. But, let me suggest you take a look at Charles Manson (not comparing the two). Charles Manson is an example of when it's OK to lock someone up behind bars based on his looks! LOL!!!
