Yo Gotti’s hoping to get 42 Dugg out of jail and he’s calling on the best attorneys possible to get the job done. The Detroit rapper recently called out the prison conditions and the treatment he’s faced from officers. During his 42nd birthday festivities, Yo Gotti stated that he’s willing to put up 7-figures to get him out. “I got 2 million for any lawyer that can get Dugg out early!!” he wrote on his Instagram page this week. “Thanks what I want for my birthday. #FreeDoggy.”

42 Dugg’s faced a handful of legal issues in recent times. Federal agents arrested the rapper after he failed to surrender for a sentence. However, in April, a judge handed down a one-year sentence after Dugg pled guilty to prison evasion. The rapper must also serve three years under supervised release, pay a $20,000 fine, and refrain from using illegal drugs. Hopefully, with help from Yo Gotti, Dugg will come home soon.
