Rapper Remy Ma convicted of assault
NEW YORK - A Manhattan jury has convicted Grammy-nominated
rapper Remy Ma of assault.
She faces up to 25 years in prison. The rapper was convicted
Thursday in state Supreme Court.
The defense had conceded that Remy Ma fired a shot at a friend
she suspected of stealing $3,000, but said it was an accident. The
incident occurred outside a nightclub on July 14, 2007.
Remy Ma, whose real name is Remy Smith, was nominated for a
Grammy as part of the Terror Squad for the 2004 hit "Lean Back."
She also has appeared on recordings with Busta Rhymes and Eminem.
