A week-long murder trial ended in a sigh of relief for ‘Aye Bay Bay rapper Hurricane Chris. He was found not guilty in the fatal shooting of 32-year-old Danzeria Farris Jr. that happened in 2020. Chris maintains that he was acting in self defense and only meant to wound the victim, not take his life.
In a statement following Tuesday’s not-guilty verdict, Hurricane Chris thanked those who supported him throughout the “draining” experience.
“Tonight, I was found not guilty of second-degree murder and illegal possession of stolen things,” he explained. “I wanna thank God, my attorneys at the Washington & Wells Law Firm, and my family for standing with me as my life was on the line. They wanted to give me life if I was found guilty. Now I can hug my son and think about raising him to be a man.”
Hurricane Chris continued, “This situation drained me and affected my health greatly. God, I give u all the glory. I got my life back and words can’t explain how I feel. Thanks to everyone who wished me well.”
