Kodak è stato condannato a scontare altri 12 mesi in prigione, oltre ai 46 già stabiliti da una sentenza federale, per il reato di possesso di armi da fuoco nello Stato di New York. L’ha annunciato il suo avvocato Bradford Cohen su Instagram, in descrizione ad un’immagine del rapper con la scritta “Free Kodak”. Il legale ha descritto accuratamente la situazione, condividendo il proprio disappunto riguardo la scelta di condannare il rapper, già gravato da una sentenza di tre anni, e riflettendo sui cambiamenti dovuti all’emergenza sanitaria.

Some good news and some frustration in regards to @kodakblack . The case in New York is resolved. I was not his attorney on that case. Although it should have been completely dismissed, as it was for the other 2 individuals in the same car, who testified that @kodakblack knew nothing about the firearm in the vehicle, and it was registered and legal to one of the other individuals he was with, they agreed to 12 month to run concurrent with his current sentence. Even the Judge asked the prosecutor why are they not dismissing. @kodakblack just wanted to resolve it so he doesn't lose anytime in federal. You see when you are out of federal custody you lose that time on your federal case. Now with the Coronavirus, its unknown when they will pick him up due to this virus. The BUREAU OF PRISONS @bureauofprisons needs to address these issues that federal inmates are credited back time they miss due to this outbreak. More information to follow this, as we really need to delve deep into how @kodakblack is being treated differently than any other inmate and any other defendant. Next up we will discuss what I say is triple jeopardy and the holding off on charges to attempt to stack a defendant with extra time, like in the case in @saomiami

A questo riguardo il rapper non si è mostrato preoccupato, anzi: in un controverso post su Instagram, poi cancellato, si era  augurato che l’epidemia durasse fino alla fine del suo periodo di reclusione (“This Corona shit need to last til I get out”), in modo da non subire le pesanti ripercussioni economiche che invece colpiranno tutti coloro che lavorano nel mondo dell’intrattenimento. Evidentemente Kodak ignora, al contrario dell’allarmato 6ix9ine, che la popolazione carceraria è una delle categorie a più alto rischio di contagio e che, spesso, non riceve le adeguate cure mediche.
