Breaking News: Atlanta Producer Shawty Redd Turns Himself In For Murder, Claims Self-Defense

Details are sketchy right now, but the man who gave us hits like Young Jeezy's 'Trap or Die' and Snoop Dogg's 'Sensual Seduction' is in an Atlanta jail awaiting to be arraigned on Murder 1 charges.

According to GyantUnplugged:

In the early morning of January 1st, Demetrius Stewart (aka Shawty Redd) was at his home with another individuals who was not an intruder. An argument ensued in which this individual threatened violence against Shawty Redd. Shawty Redd felt his life was in jeopardy and retrieved his firearm for self-defense. As a result, the man that allegedly threatened him was shot and killed. Immediately, thereafter Shawty Redd went to the Henry County police Department and turned himself in.

Shawty Redd is schedule for arraignment at Henry County Jail. No bond has been issued.

To bad this dude life was taken, but sometimes people just have to let things be and move on. Everyone in this world is eating and eating good, so retrack ones self and think about how you can be a successful black man in this country we call the American Dream.

Men if you're someone who wants to live a good life KEEP YOUR ASSES AWAY FROM HOUSE PARTIES! i don't attend them, nor do i host them. It's time a lot of you men and women STOP attending these seedy ass house parties where you really don't know who's coming or going.

To CLAIM SELF DEFENSE in a matter such as this will be very slim to no defense. You cannot claim SELF DEFENSE in a matter of someone's threat of violence against you so as far as i'm concerned unless the deceased individual used deadly force against "SHAWTY RED" he should go straight to jail like i would if i were as stupid as he was for grabbing a gun and using it in the COMMISSION OF A FELONY.

You BLACK MEN HAD BETTER LEARN YOU'RE NOT ABOVE ANY LAWS JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE A RAPPER OR PRODUCER and if you don't learn to keep your CONVICTED FELON hands off of these guns you're going to find out very fast that the laws were made for you also.
