Yeah, his name might sound kind of cute, but you definitely wouldn't want to get on Lil Boosie's (aka Torrence Hatch) bad side. Boosie was indicted in Lousiana by an East Baton Rouge Parish grand jury last Thursday for his purported role in the shooting of Terry Boyd last October.
If convicted, Boosie will face the death penalty according to one district attorney.
Boosie's already locked up with a 4-year sentence for drug and gun possesion charges as well as three counts of possesion with intent to distribute for allegedly trying to smuggle marijuana, coedine, and ecstacy into the Dixon Hills Correction Facility where he was being held.
And it's not over yet….
According to hiphopdx.com…
At least five other murders are being investigated in connection with the rapper. “We’re investigating the others in a similar fashion,” said District Attorney Hillar Moore. “We are investigating the common pattern of these killings and money.”
So, if you lost count…
Boosie faces the following charges:
First Degree Murder of Terry Boyd, 35, shot to death inside his residence at 16837 Vermillion Drive on 10/21/09. The shots were fired from outside home through a window.
Three counts Posession With Intent to Distribute Narcotics (Schedule II-Codeine, Schedule I-Ecstacy and Schedule I-Marijuana).
Three counts Conspiracy to commit Posession With Intent to Distribute Narcotics.
Two counts Conspiracy to Introduce Contraband into a Penal Institution.
Boosie, Boosie, Boosie…they say you gotta be real to make it in the rap game, but this real? Man…
