<p>Justin Johnson&#8217;s situation isn&#8217;t looking any brighter. Late last month, the suspected killer of <a href="/profile/young-dolph" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Young Dolph</a> and his accomplice Cornelius Smith were <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/young-dolphs-alleged-killers-show-up-at-court-without-lawyers-given-one-week-to-find-legal-team-news.146964.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">granted more time from a judge to find legal representation</a>, but during a court appearance on Monday, February 7th, it was revealed that they remain without a lawyer.</p>
<p>On top of the charges regarded Dolph&#8217;s death, Johnson has also been charged with failure of a Tennessee sex offender to timely report or register, <em>Action News 5</em> reports. Yesterday, he told a judge that &#8220;he don&#8217;t have any money for a lawyer,&#8221; for these charges.</p>

<p>According to <em>AllHipHop</em>, the alleged murderer was convicted of aggravated rape in 2015, and is required to report to police on a quarterly basis as a result, but didn&#8217;t show up to his check-in back in December of last year.</p>
<p>For the sex offender charges, Johnson will be appointed a public defender, but for the first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm, employment of a firearm during a dangerous felony, and theft of property over $10,000 charges, him and Smith claimed that they would be able to hire their own representation.</p>
<p>If convicted of the aforementioned crimes, the men could face life in prison or even the death penalty.</p>
