Drew Findling

God damn.

And, you know, the guy that just helped Durk beat his case, Drew Findling, is his lawyer.

Mm.

Oh.

Yeah, Florida, I could imagine being locked up out there, knock on wood.

That's crazy.

So they got Drew Findling, um, stepping up for him now.

Yep, they do.

No, I wouldn't.

I'll take Drew Findling any day.

Yeah, Alex Kessel.

Uh, the, the, you know, the Ta-

Do you really think, um, it's a good look for a nigga to beat the feds twice? Do you really think that's like really possible?

Do I think it's po- man, look, man, I ain't gonna lie, bro, with Brian Steel and Drew Findling, I'm, I am, I'm a, I'm, I'm a believer, bro, that it could happen.

I'm, I'm ...

If you woulda asked me [laughs] if it was anybody else with any other lawyers, they'd be cooked, bro.

Back to back, 20 days, a month, that's not even a month later.

Right.

So Drew, Drew Findling said that that's not gonna happen.

Drew, Drew, uh-

Because on this case, it was a paper trail.

It was Drew Findling.

It's my man.

[laughs]

Exactly.

It's my man, Drew Findling.

It's-

Who's been on my show twice

I know that, um, Johnny Cochran had represented a lot of people in, like, big high-profile cases, but, like, that shit made them.

I mean, shit, Drew Findling and Brian Steel's price now.

You want them to fight that RICO, that price gone all the way through the ceiling, bro, 'cause you ain't supposed to beat the feds.

Yeah.

And Ross, what we got with you, man? Little Durk trial coming up.

You back out there?

Yeah, looking like another trial unless Drew Findling, you know what I'm saying, pulls off some magic, gets that dismissed or something.

I'm, I got my eye on it.

It's wicked business when you playing with the feds, bro.

You know what I'm saying? But shout to his lawyers, uh, well, Drew, what is it, Drew Findling and Brian Steel?

Brian Steel.

Yes, yes, yes.

I still think-

Like, nobody, nobody never did it like that

... definitely he'll be, he'll be the, he'll be the biggest artist, but I think he'll still be a little bit under Drake, 'cause Drake put up that 10 million for the lawyer money or whatever, so-called, with Drew Findling and them, and them guys.

So Drake, to me, a dude that's willing to spend, "Yo, here's 10 million for your lawyer fees," that's real boss move shit right there.

And then on cross, you know how you see them witnesses, all of a sudden they got an attitude.

Him and Drew Findling, that man was like, the arrogance and the cockiness came out.

And what I will say is, in my humble opinion, Drew and his back and forth, he was...

Vonnie was trying to have control of that cross.

'Cause usually when somebody's not guilty, it's free Durk, you think that's it, and then the feds hit you with something else, man It's wicked business when you playing with the feds, bro.

You know what I'm saying? But shout out to his lawyers, uh, uh, Drew, what is it, Drew Findling and Brian Steel?

Brian Steel.

Yes, yes.

I still think-

Like, nobody, nobody never did it like that

... definitely, he'll be, he'll be the, he'll be the biggest artist, but I think he'll still be a little bit under Drake, 'cause Drake put up that 10 million for the lawyer money or whatever, so-called, with Drew Findling and them, and them guys.

So Drake, to me, a dude that's willing to spend, "Yo, here's 10 million for your lawyer fees," that's real boss move shit right there.

Dirk is not guilty of all charges.

There's really no other way to say it than what you just heard from defense attorney Drew Findling.

Rapper Lil Durk has to be breathing a sigh of relief after a monumental verdict.

After a two-week trial in Los Angeles, which even saw Kanye West and Machine Gun Kelly in attendance, A jury acquitted the Grammy Award winner in his federal murder-for-hire trial.

And I think the defense used that to break down his credibility and kind of show that he was capable of something like this.

Our audience knows we follow a lot of big trials, particularly in the industry.

And Brian Steele and Drew Findling are no strangers to people who follow the cases that we cover.

What were they like in court? What was their demeanor like? What were their arguments like? You don't need me to tell you that sometimes juries, they can really, you know, focus in on a defense attorney and how they present themselves.
