PeeWee Roscoe allegedly dry snitched on Hip Hop mogul Birdman by hinting his involvement in the Lil Wayne’s tour bus shooting, according to court docs obtained by TMZ.
Roscoe, whose real name is Jimmy Winfrey, allegedly stated Birdman’s financial dispute with Lil Wayne led to the attempted hit. Winfrey reportedly argued, “[Birdman] should be held liable as a party to the crime.”
According to an indictment that was filed in June, Roscoe called Birdman’s cellphone immediately after the shooting.
Roscoe, armed with a .40 caliber and a 9mm handgun, allegedly drove a white 2015 Chevy Camaro onto Interstate 285 while pursuing Weezy who left an April 26 performance at the Compound in Atlanta.
Birdman and Young Thug were named in the indictment as being involved in a RICO conspiracy to kill Lil Wayne.
Roscoe arrested in May on multiple felony counts that include aggravated assault, terroristic threats and acts, criminal damage, possession of a firearm by a felon, criminal gang activity, reckless conduct and discharging a weapon near the street.
Young Thug hasn’t denied his affiliation to PeeWee and even launched a campaign to free him.
“We finna start this Free Rosco campaign,” he said. “I need everybody in this motherf *cking world to say ‘Free motherf*cking Roscoe.’”
Roscoe, 25, of Atlanta, is reported to have carried out the crime to gain higher gang status in the Bloods Gang, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
