DaBaby’s Lawyers Support His Self-Defense Claim In The Walmart Shooting Footage

DaBaby’s infamous 2018 Walmart shooting, which resulted in the death of a 19-year-old, is still making headlines. Rolling Stone released an investigation into the case, discovering unseen CCTV footage from Walmart. According to the story, the film refuted DaBaby’s claim of self-defense, but his lawyer said that it bolstered his case in court.

The rapper acted in self-defense, according to the authorities, which is why he was not charged with homicide. A judge in Mecklenburg County later watched the footage in connection with an allegation of not having the proper firearms permits.

“Witnesses were interviewed and corroborated Mr. Kirk’s statement,” DaBaby’s attorney said to TMZ. “The entirety of the surveillance video was viewed and determined to corroborate Mr. Kirk’s statement … Mr. Kirk was protecting himself and his family at the time of the shooting.”

After the victim and his friend trailed him at Walmart and displayed a weapon, DaBaby told authorities he was acting in self-defense.

On Monday morning, the rapper responded to the backlash on social media. “N***as done took 30 million from me, lie on me once a week, want my fine ass BM’s to hate me, want me to lose fights I don’t start, WHAT MORE DO U WANT FROM MEEE?”

Watch: DaBaby’s 2018 Walmart Shooting Footage Resurfaced Online

DaBaby was with his two children and then-girlfriend Mariah Osborne at a Walmart in North Carolina in November of 2018. DaBaby claims he was exploring the aisles when a man approached him and brought out a gun. Jaylin Craig, 19, was the man in question, and DaBaby assassinated him. Given the rapper’s account of events, it’s evident that he was attempting to suggest that he was acting in self-defense, and that his life would have been in danger if he hadn’t shot the man.

The rapper escaped murder charges after a judge determined that he was acting in self-defense. Craig’s mother, LaWanda Horsley, has maintained since the shooting that her son committed no wrongdoing. Craig’s friend Henry Douglas, who was present at the moment of the shooting, claims that DaBaby was the one who began it all.

An Investigative Report From Rolling Stone

Rolling Stone provided this information in an investigative report. DaBaby lunges at Douglas before Craig intervenes to break up the fight, according to the new CCTV footage posted by the publication. The viewpoint shifts after that, and we only see DaBaby pull out his gun and shoot Craig.

Douglas tells Rolling Stone that he and Craig saw the rapper in Walmart and that Douglas wanted to make sure it was him. After passing the rapper several times in an aisle, he became enraged and had some words for them. “That’s what eventually started it; when he took it the wrong way,” Douglas stated. “We were trying to see who you are, and he took it as somebody is looking at him with a problem.”

DaBaby Breaks The Silence On Home Shooting 

DaBaby was compelled to shoot in self-defense once again on Wednesday night. It happened when an undesirable individual trespassed onto his property in Troutman, North Carolina.

After breaching a fence around the $2.3 million house and gaining entry to the remote complex, the rapper reportedly exchanged words with the invader and shot him in the leg.

At 7:45 p.m. on Wednesday, the Troutman Police Department responded to a shooting call. The police discovered an intruder with a non-life threatening gunshot wound. For treatment, he was transferred to a local hospital.

DaBaby Breaks Silence On Instagram 

DaBaby is believed to have cooperated with police authorities after they arrived on the scene, although his relationship with the press is strained. On Thursday (April 14), the Blame It On Baby singer broke his silence over the shooting on Instagram Stories, criticizing the way the incident was handled, notably his home location being made public.

“Media telling n-ggas business be the main reason n-ggas have fye put on em,” he posted alongside a shrug and an explosion emoji while showing an overhead shot of his Troutman property.

DaBaby also shared a video of himself putting up two fingers while driving his Lamborghini. In the video, he says, “Two of ’em.” “Two.”

The “two” could be a reference to DaBaby’s second shooting victim, following the 19-year-old man he killed in a Huntersville Walmart in 2018. The rapper claimed self-defense and was found not guilty of all charges.
