I wrote out the robbery. The whole thing start to finish. However my better judgement was to not publish it. I detailed the whole entire thing but I just don't feel comfortable letting all that go. It is important to understand though, that I didn't rob nobody, I wasn't even there when it happen.
So the morning of the robbery I got locked up for a theft by receiving, that was for KP stuff. I got out the next morning, which was my birthday. That night I had a lil kickback, Penelope threw me. That was Friday.
I got locked up that Monday.
That Monday changed everything, because that's when the pressure came. See that Monday I had to see Housing, and they suspended me for a year for having Never Take Showers and 30 living with me. See NTS had went straight to the police after the robbery. He told them the wildest shit ever. Drug everybody in it. He threw Ari name in there, Penelope, Brimm, even Najee. He told on me though. He said that the Rat actually robbed them, and I planned all of it.
So that Monday after talking to Housing, I'm about to leave, but the folks was waiting for me. This time I got arrested for theft by taking, for Polo stuff.
Now when they was cuffing me the dective told me verbatim "I already know everything. Everything about Wheaton street, NTS, the gun and all."
See the thing is there is no way for the police to know about where we was as far as the roberry is concerned. Wheaton street is the hood we were at that day. I knew but I didn't want to admit. The only people who could tell the police that was the Rat or Hoover. I was in jail.
He tried to spoke me saying he could charge me for the pistol and the roberry, my only focus was bonding out on my current charge.
Which took me six days because Brimm ran off with my bond money. It was only $150 but I had to have someone with a Chatham (Savannah) county address sign my bond. It was supposed to be Brimm's mom, but...he ran off. You only going run off on so many people before somebody runs off on you. So it took a whole six days and Penelope's friend Jasmine got me out.
The Rat was avoiding me when I came back. Ari and Penelope kept saying he was running around stressing how he got to much to lose. I just didn't wanna believe it.
Well by now I was banned from State and wanted for questioning. I wasn't officially on the run until August when they put out the arrests warrant. I was actually about to swear in into the military. Since school didn't work out, the army was my plan B. I took the adsvab and even picked my job as a ammunition specialist. But my finger prints came back and yeah...
So I was on the run. They came to my house in like October. Like the Macon fugitive task force, well they went to my mother house but I wasn't there. I got caught with Lex and then it was over with.
I was locked up when I saw everyone statements. Of course Never Take Showers and 30 told but the Rat....He dropped the ball. See the night the pistol got stolen he posted it to his snap with the caption "Me & Shazzam bacc at it bros." So stupidly posted it to his story. So the police pushed up on him, because 30 reported the gun stolen and showed them that picture, and from there he told them everything.
Broke my heart. My brother did that to me. Like I had two Armed Robberies, and two aggravated assaults and I wasn't even there when it happen. But them folks was talking about ten years out the gate. Ten! I cried. I ain't going cap I was so blowed because I didn't do it, hell the Rat ain't do it. Someone else did. Neither me or the Rat was there. It's crazy because it was literally a "IDK" situation brah.
But all that was over with now. I had the charges and choices to make. I could go to trail and risk it, but them trail numbers crazy. 20 and better. I could flat out snitch but c'mon now.
I debated how to lie my way out of it, I talked to my bunkmate about it one day, he a big OG Piru. He told me it wouldn't be snitching because I didn't do nothing plus PLUS The Rat LIED in his statement. Everything he did he said I did. My nigga Uzi told me to fold on the Rat, a lot of people said that actually. Only because The Rat lied, like I didn't do what he said. He did, and flipped all on me.
He put everything on me! But snitching is snitching. Telling is telling.
It's a sticky situation my back against the wall.
So I swiveled. I call it swiveling. Because I didn't snitch but I didn't just let him lie on me either. I just got up out of there.
It went a lot like
"Did you blah blah."
"Nah I ain't do none of that."
"If you didn't do it then The Rat did it then correct?"
"Man idk, what happen. But I didn't do A, B, C. Idk brah."
Call it what you want, I don't care. If it was my idea to rob NTS then that's different. But it wasn't my idea! The Rat wanted to rob NTS. If I would have went and actually robbed him that's different. But again, I didn't. I wasn't there. So nah I couldn't "keep it real" while a nigga straight lied and told on me.
At the end I took a plea, because I had eventually got a paid lawyer. But I took a plea for Ten years serve three. On my first offenders. First Offenders seal my record can't no one see it. But I still gotta do threes for a agg, seven on probation. For shit I ain't do.
The Rat ended up with a lesser charge! How? Fucking how?! Mans got a fucking felony teft by taking! I think all he got was probation.
Meanwhile I'm in prison!
Yeahhh Man, that ain't lit.
