New York Senate passes new laws to restrict the use of rap lyrics in criminal proceedings
New laws that would restrict when prosecutors can cite rap lyrics in criminal proceedings were passed by the Senate of New York State yesterday, just a week after supposedly incriminating lyrics were included in legal papers alongside the prosecution of Young Thug and Gunna. There is now one more stage in the process before these new rules become law in New York State.The proposed new rules are contained in Senate Bill S7527, sometimes dubbed the ‘rap on trial’ bill.
