Spider Loc outlines a concise case for TI informing and did a female cause the murder of an Atlanta rapper (EP18)

In this episode 18 of Streets and Scholars with Alex Alonso and Frank "FG" Thornton talk about the various new gun laws that lawmakers want to make in response the Buffalo and Uvalde shootings. Should 18-year olds be banned from purchasing AR15 type rifles? Kevin Liles is pushing a petition to stop prosecutors from using rapper's art, music and lyrics in criminal court trials. Out call in guest, Spider Loc wanted to present his perspective on TI informing on Hosea Thomas' case in Ohio. Did TI snitch in that Ohio trial? He heard Episode 10 of Streets and Scholars and he disagreed with our assessment. Atlanta rapper Mariel “Trouble” Orr was shot and killed by at a Rockdale County apartment by Jamichael Jones, the ex-boyfriend of the woman who lived in the apartment. Was the female at fault for having a man at her place shortly after breaking up with Jones?
