“We will find out by
January 25 whether or not the (Yuma) county attorney will file charges or not,”
James Tilson, a local attorney retained by Wayne,
told USAtoday; as the rapper was not
formally charged and will have to appear in court at the end of the month.
“He is looking forward to his day in court. That’s all I can
say right now.”
