Lil Wayne’s Pilot Just Became His Secret Weapon in Assault Case
Lil Wayne’s got backup — and it’s coming from the cockpit. The rapper just revealed he has a pilot who’s ready to defend him in his legal war with his ex-assistant over alleged assault on a private jet, according to court docs obtained by TMZ.
Wayne’s legal team says the pilot was recently deposed and is ready to testify that the rapper’s version of events went down exactly as he claims. Translation? The ex-assistant’s story doesn’t hold up when you’ve got someone who was literally there.
This is a major move in the case. Eye-witness testimony from someone neutral — especially a crew member — carries serious weight in court. The pilot wasn’t hired to protect Wayne’s reputation; he was just doing his job flying the jet. That makes his account potentially bulletproof.
Wayne’s been fighting these assault allegations hard, and now he’s got the kind of witness that can actually shift things in his favor. Game on.
