It was reported earlier that Ghanaian US-based braggart, Samuel Safo otherwise Showboy has been slapped with 6 years prison sentence by US court after being found guilty of assaulting and attempting to murder his friend Nana Yaw Opoku aka Junior.
However, an American blog has released a detailed report of the whole incident and the number of years Showboy’s rascal a$$ is to rot in jail.
According to the detailed report published by the American local blog, ajc.com, “A man who stabbed and bit an acquaintance inside a Lawrenceville apartment during an attack that was filmed on an iPad will serve six years in prison. Sam Safo, 25, was convicted of aggravated battery for the July 2016 incident, which took place at the Wesley Herrington apartments,” the Gwinnett County District Attorney’s Office said in a news release Friday.
The witness who recorded the altercation told police the men were arguing when Safo bit the victim in the face and stabbed him in the chest, armpit and behind his ear.
Five days later, Safo called Gwinnett police to report that he was robbed at knifepoint, although he refused to meet with police, did not give them access to the crime scene and failed to mention that he stabbed anyone, the release said.
He was arrested a month later in Maryland and extradited to Georgia to face charges here, records show. At trial, Safo testified that he feared for his life. During questioning, however, he admitted inviting both men inside his apartment and acknowledged that neither of them had weapons, according to the DA’s release.
