DaBaby’s lawyers say the Walmart shooting video supports the self-defense claim – newsdubai
DaBaby‘s legal team says people are mistaken in drawing conclusions from a recently released video of the rapper shooting and killing a man at a Walmart … they say it actually supports the rapper’s defense.
Here’s the deal … Rolling Stone announced surveillance images Sunday from the fatal shooting in 2018 in North Carolina, and the article seemed to question DaBaby’s self-defense narrative.
DaBaby’s attorneys, Drew Findling and Marissa Goldbergtell TMZ … the video was reviewed by prosecutors back in 2018 … and they concluded that DaBaby acted in self-defense and therefore was not prosecuted for murder.
We are told that the video was even seen by a judge in Mecklenburg County in connection with a charge of misdemeanor for not having the proper permits for his gun.
As for the self-defense part, DaBaby told police that the victim and another accomplice followed him around the Walmart store, allegedly threatening him and firing a gun … which made him feel the need to protect himself.
The rapper’s lawyer tells us: “Witnesses were interviewed and confirmed Mr. Kirk’s statement. The entire surveillance video was watched and determined to confirm Mr. Kirk’s statement … Mr. Kirk protected himself and his family at the time of the surveillance. Shooter.”
