Will it work?
Donald Trump has roughly two weeks left in office, and Lamer Jackson hopes the president of the United States will lend a helping hand.
The Baltimore Ravens quarterback took to Twitter on Tuesday to request President Trump commute rapper Kodak Black’s three-year sentence. Black, who’s real name is Bill Kahan Kapri, had the punishment issued in November 2019 after lying about his criminal record in order to buy guns.
“Hey @realDonaldTrump @potus my friend @KodakBlack1k deserves to be commuted. The system punished him way to hard for a paperwork crime #freekodak,” he tweeted.
Trump has pardoned commuted to over two dozen sentences in the final weeks of his one-term presidency.
Jackson and Black grew up together in Pompano Beach, Fla. per the Baltimore Sun.
Earlier this year, Jackson tweeted out “Truzz Trump” after the president responded to a video of Jackson being drafted by the Ravens.
