Young Thug Associate Lil Woody Admits He Lied To Authorities During Police Interviews

Young Thug‘s former associate, Lil Woody, has admitted lying to the authorities during police interviews, Law & Crime reports. The outlet shared a video of the man, né Kenneth Copeland, taking the stand in which he “appeared irritated” and answered “yes” to every question asked of him. He then revealed that he was answering “yes” to every question to hurry up the legal process and then confessed to lying to authorities in interviews dating all the way back to 2015. He also asserted that he doesn’t remember anything that he told the cops because it all consisted of random stories that “they wanted him to say.” Every time they grabbed me, I had a different story for them,” Woody testified on the stand. “I was not truthful, I was saying whatever they wanted me to say…I was trying my best to convince them that I didn’t do nothing…You asked me if I was being truthful. I know I wasn’t being truthful…Whenever they was questioning me, I was lying. I was making up stories. The revelation comes after Young Thug’s attorney, Brian Steel, was arrested and held in contempt of court for refusing to disclose a source related to his client’s RICO case. Judge Ural Glanville had the man arrested on Monday (June 10) after Steel declined to explain where and how he heard about an alleged secret meeting held between Judge Glanville, Copeland, and several prosecutors. Glanville declared that the information violated the court rules, regardless of how or where Steel received it. The judge then stated that Brian would be held in contempt if he didn’t explain how the information was gathered. “I’m going to give you five minutes. If you don’t tell me who it is, I’m going to put you in contempt,” the judge told Steel. After a lengthy intermission, Steel was then instructed to serve his 20 days across the next 10 weekends. Steel’s jail sentence was set to begin Friday, June 14, and conclude Sunday, Aug. 18.
