It's time for Donkey of the Day. It's a read, but you're so good at it. You're trying to be a fake-ass Charlemagne. There's only one Charlemagne in the world. Damn, Charlemagne. Who you give the Donkey of the Day to now? Well, Sexy Red, Donkey of the Day for Friday, September 27th

goes to Justin Johnson. If you don't know who Justin Johnson is, he's the young man who was found guilty of the murder of the good brother, Young Dolph. Drop on the clues bombs for Young Dolph. Let's peace Young Dolph. Okay on the clues bombs for Young Dolph. Rest in peace, Young Dolph. Okay. Sending healing energy to his family always. A jury made up of nine white women, two black men, and one white man

found Johnson guilty of first-degree murder, guilty of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, and guilty of being a convicted felon in possession of a handgun. The jury deliberated for four hours before they convicted him, and I can't believe it took that long. Okay, they must have been there talking about why Diddy had a thousand bottles of baby oil and lubricant. All the food they had in there must have been phenomenal, and they got to talking and eating because there's no way it took them four hours to convict this man.

But let's go to News Channel 3 for the report, please. We ask you to remember the man who enjoyed being a father and spending time with his family. Carlisa Brown, Young Dolph's sister, applauding the verdict while facing the realization she'll never see her brother again. I can't say that we're happy, we're overjoyed, anything like that, but it's the start of process being served for someone who we lost that was some of everything to some of everyone the jury deliberating for four hours this afternoon finding justin johnson guilty on all charges in the murder of the memphis rapper a decision coming nearly three years after dolph was gunned down at a cookie shop as a 13th juror i affirm this verdict as to the first degree murder i sentence you to life in prison it's got to be bittersweet, right?

Because, you know, on one hand, you're glad justice is being served and these guys are getting life in prison. But yes, young Dolph is never coming back. So it's got to be bittersweet. Now, Justin Johnson and his co-defendant, the admitted gunman, Cornelius Smith, fired shots into Makita's homemade butter cookies

on Airways Boulevard. During the trial, Cornelius testified that he and Justin Johnson carried out what was supposed to be a $100,000 hit on Young Dolph. Both gunmen were supposed to receive $40,000 each for the murder. And then where was the other $10,000 going, Lauren? There was $20,000 going to the guy's name. Was it $20,000 or $10,000? It's $20,000, but it's $10,000 each.

So $10,000 from Justin, $10,000 from Cornelius. It was going to the guy's name the 20 or 10 it's 20 but it's 10 10 so 10 from justin 10 from cornelius was going to the guy that set it up okay uh but that didn't happen according to cornelius smith they only ended up with 800 dollars let's go to fox 26 houston for the details please the trauma shooting death of rapper young golf in memphis began with a major bombshell monday cornelius smith confessed in court admitting to shooting the rapper whose real name was Adolph Thornton Jr. outside a Memphis cooking shop in November 2021. Smith says he and Justin Johnson were promised $40,000 each to complete the job by Dolph rival Big Jook. He says he only got a fraction of that payout, only $800 out of the $40,000 promise. $800. You know, Cornelius Smith admitted his role in killing Dolph

and said he felt no emotions over it at the time because he was addicted to drugs and was looking forward to collecting his $40,000 payday, which, of course, he never got. And prosecutors argued that the plan was for Justin Johnson to secure a record deal for the murder. Think about what we're talking about here. Two black men going to prison forever for killing another black man for not a damn thing. Yes, I said for not a damn thing because they didn't have no personal beef with Dolph.

Dolph didn't do anything to them. They were just hitmen for hire. This was all business to them and they were willing to crash out and not only throw their life away for some money and a potential record deal, but they were also willing to take a life for some money and a potential record deal. This is why people have to learn to love themselves. Your first, last, and best love is self-love and if you don't have self-love, it is impossible for you to love someone else. How could you see the value in another person's life if you don't see no value in your own? And I know someone out there is probably thinking, Uncle Charlotte, what you mean?

Dolph got killed for nothing. $40,000 in a record deal is something. Let me be the first to tell you, if that's your mindset, call in the Breakfast Club right now. Give me your name and address so I can tell law enforcement where you at so they can come pick you up. Okay? They need to come pick you Club right now. Give me your name and address so I can tell law enforcement where you're at so they can come pick you up, okay? They need to come pick you up right now. No amount of money, no record deal is worth you throwing your life away and taking a life, okay?

That's what Justin Johnson got sent us to, life, forever, endlessly. All right, Justin Johnson, you are never coming home. Do people not understand what that means when someone says you're getting life? That means it's over. Whatever hopes and dreams, whatever creature comforts you had in the outside world, if you like women, it's over, done, for neato, and for what? As I just said, absolutely nothing. Look, I know times is hard out here, but there's no amount of money worth my freedom,

not to mention, and I know some of y'all, like these brothers, are probably saying to yourself, I ain't got nothing to live for. They ain't had nothing to live for. Well, let me ask you a question. Isn't just living enough? Why do we take for granted the blessing called life? Somebody woke up dead this morning, and they didn't want to die because they had plans today. So why don't we value just being alive?

Goes back to what I just said about self-love. If you simply valued being alive, if you simply valued your life, if you simply value just taking a breath, being able to breathe, then you would value the lives of others. And nobody could offer you some money or a record deal in exchange for taking the life of someone else. Now, I was looking at Shade Room and I saw a post from the account of Justin Johnson. I'm assuming this is his real account, right, Laura? That's what it was being reported as. I didn't report it because I thought it was disrespectful. I didn't.

Go ahead. Well, it says these N-words taking criminal responsibility. I'm taking street responsibility. Regardless, I'm forever the biggest. They can throw away the keys before I ever eat the cheese. That's so stupid. Now, I don't speak fluent nigga like I used to, but I understand the last part, okay? He's saying they can lock him away forever before he ever tells, all right? I don't know what he means when he says they taking criminal responsibility, I'm taking street responsibility. That sounds like one of those dumb ass street codes,

and I hate stupid-ass street codes. You know how in video games we would enter a code, and it would take us to another level or give us more lives? Well, street codes are the opposite of video game codes. They don't take you to any higher levels, and you only get one man in this game called life anyway. So the street code would be like up, up, down, down, left, right, select, start, dumb Negro, you're going to prison forever or probably going to die. And guess what? You earned it. Okay. Your uncle Charlotte tells

you all the time, life is about choices. The decisions we make shape our lives. Destiny is not a matter of chance. It's a matter of choice. Guys like Justin Johnson and Cornelius Smith chose the direction of their lives simply by making a bad choice. And it saddens me that we live in an era with so much information, access to so many resources. We have numerous examples of where certain choices lead us, and yet we have brothers like Justin Johnson and Cornelius Smith who are still choosing to do the wrong thing.

And for absolutely nothing. Please let Remy Ma give Justin Johnson the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw! Hee-haw! You stupid mother f***er. You dumb. And it feels like these should be teachable moments, but I don't know if people are actually learning

because we always find ourselves right back here. That's right. I just don't understand why I post the statement. Like, if you're going to stand on that, you want to, you know what I mean, take your time, take it. Be quiet and take it. But why post that? There's people hurting behind that. And I're going to stand on that and you want to, you know what I mean, take your time, take it. Be quiet and take it. But why post that? There's people hurting behind that.

And I'm going to tell you something else. Salute to my man Shaka Sinkar, man. Shaka Sinkar is a good friend of mine, great brother. He posted under the post that the young man posted. He said, as someone who served 19 years, I can say those sentiments will vanish within a couple of days. Reality

will set in, and he is going to be in for a sad awakening I have never, and I mean never Met someone in prison who was happy to be there I have never met someone who killed someone That doesn't wish they could take that 30 seconds back If you are living that street life I hope you take this moment to realize How you are being used

When that prison number is handed out It won't be given to your mommy, your homies Or whoever you thought was riding with you. Once that door slams shut, it's all on you from there. Shaka Sinkhole, you ain't never lie, my brother. Never lie. And you can, yes, salute to Shaka, man. That's my guy.
