Tony Yayo and 50 Cent sued

Cynthia, the mother of James Rosemend who was assaulted last year, has filed a lawsuit against 50 Cent and Yayo, stating that she wants an apology, even though Yayo was cleared of assault charges. Sources say her reason for including 50 Cent in the suit, though he was no where in the city at the time of the alleged incident, is because he is responsible for the actions and rappers of his label, which she also claims is the rival of Jimmy Rosemond’s Czar Entertainment label. Attorney’s for 50 Cent claim that Cynthia’s suit if money generated, though she claims she just wants an apology. Whatever is what we say at hiphopspy, she wants some loot but we cant see her getting a dime since another flunky took the fall.

Though all charges have been dropped he will be required to do 10 days of community service.Yayo confesses he was at the scene of the altercation and even tried pulling the assaulter off of the teenage boy.Tony’s attorney, Scott Leemon has said he believed his client was innocent from the dawn of this trial stating “As I told you from the beginning, Tony Yayo did not hit anyone and would never do anything to harm a child. “This fact was confirmed by Mr. Fletcher when he told members of the notorious Hip Hop Police in August that he did this on his own. The Hip Hop Police buried this helpful information, and the charges against Tony Yayo proceeded until today.” Leemon continued. Not everyone was happy with the outcome of the case as the teenage boys mother, has demanded an apology after the court proceedings yesterday. “A public apology is appropriate at this time, not only from Tony Yayo but from 50 Cent for denying this event ever happened— as if my son was lying when all along they knew this assault had taken place” said the mother. “As much as Marvin Bernard tried to wiggle his way out of his role in assaulting my son, who is a minor, he had to accept responsibility to accept a plea deal.”
