50 Cent took to Instagram to voice his dissatisfaction with how Diddy’s legal team managed his sex trafficking trial. He especially pointed out their weak closing statements, questioning how much Diddy was paying them for such poor performance.
In a now-deleted post, 50 Cent went further by naming Marc Agnifilo, claiming he was the worst lawyer he had ever seen. He said, “Remember the name Marc Agnifilo. He just got Diddy ass 20 years.”
Before this, 50 Cent had suggested Diddy consider hiring Joe Tacopina, who successfully represented A$AP Rocky. However, Tacopina wasn’t interested in representing Diddy, citing his ties to JAY-Z and Roc Nation as the reason.
