Pop superstar Rick James is accused of burning a woman in West Hollywood with a cocaine pipe in 1991. His attorney, Robert Sheahen, comments on his client's case.
@@valaneicethompson2907Based on interviews I’ve seen of Rick I gathered that he didn’t really commit those violent crimes against those women but obviously something went down. I understand if you don’t want to answer but since you said you knew Rick personally I was wondering if he ever told you what really happened or if these women just lied with no other motive than to get money out of him.
He wore that same suit on Judge Joe Brown show. He was asking for help then about his drug habbit. Now May he RIP. An gifted talent. An icon of funk, pop. And a great writer. He's definitely missed.
OMG 👁️ said the same thing, that he favored Lil' Wayne on that pic or you can say Lil' Wayne favors Rick from back in the day! God BLESS His Soul, R.I.H. Mr. James👼🏽🙏🏽 #SuperFreakn🎸
@Kenneth Brown he had great music and was a funny guy but he did do some crazy stuff burning girls with crack pipes holdimg them hostage making the girl go down on his girlfriend. I love the music but his drug addiction was pushing him to do crazy stuff.
We all have opinion and I am a fan of Rick but I never believe he did what those two women said he done especially the one that said he held her hostage. He did admit he went off on the other girl for kicking his pregnant girlfriend, then his wife later
@@starrcompany3275 I am sorry you feel that way brother but i do have black in my blood. My mother is from Honduras. My cousins are black and speak spanish. So mira si te ofendi perdona loco pero cada quien tiene su opinion. So look if I offended you i am sorry but every body has a rite to their opinion. And plus i am not fixing to debate on whay i said is wrong But then again your opinion is respected , Bless day👍
The people behind the music industry,target only black artist,they will do by anymeans necessary to bring a black artist down,look at the situation with Mike Tyson and that Kennedy boy who was accused of rape,Mike Tyson had to serve some time,but what happened with the Kennedy boy? They both occurred around about the same time,they swept the Kennedy case under the rug
MagicN9ne bill dragged his wife down a flight of steps by her hair and continued beating her in front of their children and has a mountain of sexual assault settlements paid by the late roger ailes, owner of fox news who was also a sexual predator all of this information is available with a simple google search
Na, if he wasnt blk during those times , he wldve walked. Watch OJ trial of u think im lying. Now the pendulum has swung and imo its mostly older blk folks teaching racism.
@Mj4Eternity58 Yes , I hope they did . They are my favorite singers right after Stevie Wonder . Oh and I wonder if Stevie Wonder and Rick James knew each other or worked together .
bootfonk According to his autobiography, the woman who was a hooker stayed with them for two weeks smoking and having sex with him and Tanya. Her pimp found out and beat her ass good. He then said suddenly she accused them of kidnapping her. He suspected she and her pimp could bribe him out some money.
He was found guilty of assaulting her. I think he got off on torture and kidnapping (the torture part carried a life sentence) but he was convicted of assaulting her. He before his death and Tanya to this day still insisted they took Frances to the hospital after her pimp hit her. Had it not been for the Mary Sauger case, Rick would've gotten out earlier than he did (he only served three years).
Rick james didn't assault that crack user she was so high hitting that pipe she burnt her Damn self .. Rick James did not kidnapped nobody they did not Force her to be there she was there because she wanted to be ..STOP BELIEVING MEDIA B.S .
Rick James.... One of the best musicians there is! One funky cool dude & personality as well... Too bad some greedy B...tried to make a cash grab & Tarnish the man's name
@OneWay789 That's A Good Question Love, I Should Think So...... Mainly Because They Were On The Same Label, & Rick Use To Date The Thriller Video Girl, (Forgot Her Name)l!!!
Hollywood all that money access to drugs he probably did other shit on down low we don't know about he took it 2 his grave in his book he said he get so high he didn't remember what he was doing..

"Only thing Rick James will be singing is the jailhouse blues." Remember when they used to sign off on news reports with smart ass lines like that lol
hahaha
Yeah not funny. My family knew him personally. They lied

Peep my man stroll as he entered the courtroom and folded his arms like
"I'm Rick James Bitch"
I remember I would pass the blunt to my boyfriend and he would not pay attention and grab it wrong and he would tell me I tried to Rick James him lol
Total BS. They had been after Rick for years. Don't believe it and never will...
he didn't put up much of defense in court. you know that crack head did it
noBRILOpadheads nobrilopadheads 6
Doubt it's false.. probably exaggerated though.
They didn't believe the accusations about MJ either...
PhuckHue2 😂 bet that crackhead blow more money on coke than you’ll ever see 😂😂

He was a fan of that color, but it was most certainly not the same suit, lol. Rick was a good 50lbs heavier on that episode of Judge Joe Brown.
I don't remember him asking for help with his drug habit on Judge Joe Brown. 🤔
He didn't ask judge Joe Brown for help with his drug habit. He was suing some man over him not paying him back over one of his guitars
Wow! That date says August 6, 1991 when they showed him in court and he died on August 6, 2004
That was kind of eerie.
This man has so much talent and was very articulate. RIP, Rick!!
Weird to be complimenting the guy on a video about how he kidnapped and tortured some woman
"Cocaine is a hell of a drug.."
He's a super freak, super freak, he's super freak, yow!!
2:13 43 years old Rick with a 21 years old chic! Interesting!
u obviously don’t know nuthin about the 🌎 uv fame, drugz & muzik
Just like Hugh hefner...when u 100 & dating 21yr olds.. 👌
He ain’t look a day over 25
emancipation facts like wtf man does not look 43 at all
@@genevafoster386 Yeah "dating".
Current superstars such as mc hammer..........then that moment I realized this video is from the same year I was born lmao
I'm trippiin
I thought they made a mistake and put picture of lil Wayne at 1;51
OMG 👁️ said the same thing, that he favored Lil' Wayne on that pic or you can say Lil' Wayne favors Rick from back in the day! God BLESS His Soul, R.I.H. Mr. James👼🏽🙏🏽
#SuperFreakn🎸
I see it too. Lol
Damn you
Haahaa
Fucking Bill O Reily used to work for inside edition hahaha
Rick was great artist with some smokin music...
And an evil asshole.
@Kenneth Brown Say it again.They talkin shit about my man
@Kenneth Brown he had great music and was a funny guy but he did do some crazy stuff burning girls with crack pipes holdimg them hostage making the girl go down on his girlfriend. I love the music but his drug addiction was pushing him to do crazy stuff.

Bill O'Reilly Ha ha irony.
Rick James and Charlie Sheen real life American heroes
How so ?
Bruh no
He Looks Just Like Terrence Howard @ That Court Hearing !!!!!
According to an interview with Pamela Des Barres, Rick James didn't use a hot crack pipe but a hot knife.
Its funny how people in the comments call Rick a piece of shit, yet the people that actually knew him, all have positive things to say about him.
wowww its almost as if there's something called being two faced
yeah they dont want to be kidnapped and tortured either
@@masonthunkwell9786Rick’s been dead for almost 20 years now so regardless of what they say they wouldn’t have to worry about that.
We all have opinion and I am a fan of Rick but I never believe he did what those two women said he done especially the one that said he held her hostage. He did admit he went off on the other girl for kicking his pregnant girlfriend, then his wife later
im sure she got kicked for doing exactly what she said they did
lol "jailhouse blues" that was kind of messed up
That's bill oreily for u
Sometimes you have to seperate the person from the artist.
"Jail house blues"🤣🤣🤣
That is quite the laundry list of things brought against him. It is sad that he is longer with us.
*'HE IS NO LONGER WITH US."*
This was the inspiration for the In Living Color skit
which skit is it?
I think that person is talking about the skit with Keenan Ivory Wayans playing Rick James spoofing the movie Misery
It’s this skit ruclips.net/video/j_BzOkDJhPk/видео.htmlsi=b85nZgJWOHjIQ_Xp
She should had never gone there in the first place..
Damn Rick wearing to much Soul Glow fuckkk
Watch your mouth CARLOS!

We hate Bill O'Reilly
And Bill himself sexually harassed women
Chris Hansen and Rick Kirkhan gotta be long lost brothers with their stupid language tryna tell stupid a story.. Lmao.
People in glass houses billy boy 🤔

The on scene reporter is Rick Kirkham from Tiger King

Rick was the king of Buffalo ( RIP ma boy ) now I'm here in his place
I wonder if he would go back to Buffalo for visits, do you know? Just curious.
He couldn’t afford bail???
Maybe he didn't have one million dollars laying around......
On the floor laughing my chair tipped over too!
Is that the tiger king reporter?
Honestly I believe it was his time to retire. The "powers that be"
"Rich"? He was only worth $250k when he died.
At 1:54 Rick do resemble lil Wayne o.O
lmao, the journalist that made this vid back in the day (inside etiion guy, at 2:56) ended up being a crack addict himself.
Ironic that Bill O'Reily did the same type of shit.
Really, Bill kidnaps and tortures women?

Hell of a drug
@Mj4Eternity58 Yes , I hope they did . They are my favorite singers right after Stevie Wonder . Oh and I wonder if Stevie Wonder and Rick James knew each other or worked together .
Does anyone know what the outcome of this was?

He then said suddenly she accused them of kidnapping her. He suspected she and her pimp could bribe him out some money.
Just read some more. They are the ones that took her to the hospital as well. She said her pimp did that because she didn't come back work any money.
He was found guilty and spent two years in prison.
He was found guilty of assaulting her. I think he got off on torture and kidnapping (the torture part carried a life sentence) but he was convicted of assaulting her. He before his death and Tanya to this day still insisted they took Frances to the hospital after her pimp hit her. Had it not been for the Mary Sauger case, Rick would've gotten out earlier than he did (he only served three years).
Rick james didn't assault that crack user she was so high hitting that pipe she burnt her Damn self .. Rick James did not kidnapped nobody they did not Force her to be there she was there because she wanted to be ..STOP BELIEVING MEDIA B.S .
