According to TMZ, Pras May wants to call Barack Obama, Donald Trump, Ben Carson, Steve Wynn, and Jeff Sessions to the witness stand in the international finance conspiracy case.
Here is the deal;
TMZ Hip Hop obtained the decorated witness list Pras submitted, and it includes Barack Obama and Donald Trump, ex-HUD director Ben Carson, hotel czar Steve Wynn and even former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
The New Jersey-bred MC, who sold over 20 million records with Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean, is accused of receiving millions of dollars from Malaysian fugitive Jho Low … who allegedly embezzled those funds from his own country’s treasury.
Pras’ attorney David Kenner tells us the feds’ claim his client used illicit funds to finance the Leonardo DiCaprio film, “The Wolf of Wall Street” is also totally bogus … and he plans to prove that in court.
Kenner says it was Low, not Pras, who funded the “Wolf Of Wall Street” through negotiations with DiCaprio and others — and the “Ghetto Supastar” rapper simply helped network some of the interested parties behind the scenes.
Obama and Trump’s potential inclusion in the case makes things rather interesting. Pras and Low are accused of illegally funding Obama’s 2012 presidential campaign, as well as attempting to get the Trump administration to drop the charges.
They want both former commanders-in-chief to speak to those claims.
According to our sources, Pras’s team is also denying the Fugees canceled their tour over the pending case.Pras says he had even offered to help the authorities reel in Low, who he maintains is the real mastermind of the alleged crimes.
Pras is likely going to jail. I don’t think Trump or Obama will be able to save him. It is crazy though how the Feds are allegedly Pras had his hand in a little bit over everything from movies to political campaigns. It is like he was John Gotti or something.
