T.I. Is Expected to Testify at His Best Friend’s Murder Trial

35-year-old Hosea Thomas is accused of killing Philant Johnson in May of 2006.
The incident apparently started with a fight at a Roselawn club where T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris, performed. The fight spilled onto I-75.

Prosecutors say Thomas and his brother, Padron Thomas, started shooting at the van in which T.I. and his entourage were riding. When the gun battle ended at the Seymour Avenue exit, Johnson was dead and four others in the vehicle were hurt. T.I. was not hit.

I got a feeling some people will bring up, “snitchin,” but this has nothing to do with snitchin. T.I. references what took place that night on his latest album, unfortunate for a life to be lost over some minor club beef.

    taking the stand and pointing a nigga out isnt snitching??? lol nigel and u wonder why nobody respects you on your own blog

    and if you listen to the song “dead and gone” t.i. said it himself if he didnt punch one of the dudes in the face that probably wouldnt have happened…

    with that said you punch a nigga in the face…he shoots at you…your homie dies…then you go to court and tell on him…AND THATS NOT SNITCHING????

    LMAOOO THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END….

    TI IS A DISGRACE TO HIS BOY AND HIS FAMILY

    YOU WAIT UNTIL YOUR JAMMED UP BY THE FEDS FOR BUYING ARMY WEAPONS AND FACING 10 YEARS, TO START TELLING ON THE PEOPLE WHO KILLED YOUR MAN. YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT YOUR MAN AND WHO KILLED HIM. YOU ONLY CARE ABOUT GETTING OFF YOUR CASE. IF TI REALLY CARED ABOUT HIS BOY, THEN THE NEXT DAY AFTER THE SHOOTING HE WOULD HAVE WENT AND TOLD THE COPS WHO DID IT.

    IF RIGHT AFTER HIS FRIEND GOT KILLED, TI WENT TO THE POLICE TO DO THIS, IT WOULDN’T BE A BIG DEAL. BUT NO, THIS PIECE OF SHIT, ONLY TALKS WHEN HE GOT CAUGHT WITH THEM GUNS.

    IF IT WASN’T FOR TI GETTING POPPED BY THE FEDS, HE WOULD HAVE NEVER DONE THIS. SO THAT MEANS HE DON’T CARE FOR HIS MURDERED FRIEND, HE ONLY CARES ABOUT GETTING HIMSELF OUT OF TROUBLE.

    YOUR A FUCKIN DISGRACE TO YOUR PHILANT JOHNSON AND HIS FAMILY.

    YOUR A SNITCH AND WORSE THAN A SNITCH

  10. E From BK Says:

    Yall some idiots. Punching someone in the face does not equate to getting shot! I knock you out and you go get a gun???????? In my era, yous a bitch. What would happen is niggas would take your gun just for doing that shit.

  11. cuttoff Says:

  12. BigLou Says:

    Cosign BK Finest…TI is showing his true self with this one

  13. hiphop Says:

    bk finest that’s ignorant as hell…how do know he didn’t go to the cops the next day…he’s only testifying now because this is the trial…sometimes murder cases take up to a year or more after the incident before they even go to trial…man you are dumb as hell and looking for any excuse to call him a snitch

  14. Hi Hater! Says:

    Im Sorry But That Nigga Is A Hypocrit!!!!!

    Its the right thing to do true, but he’s the one rapping about ‘fuck snitches’ and all that bullshit!

  15. mateo Says:

    but the thing is ti started it at the nightclub with those niggas. he said he hit one of them. and it was a biog club fight. and he thought he could just write those dudes off because he is a supersatr butt hey felt they had been tried so they came back busting. so it really started with him. on 400 Degreez Juvenile said” if you made the beef nigga then why is you scared, if you mind yo fucking business then yo life would be spared” which means dont start shit wont be shit. so this in my book is snitching!
