Man Convicted Of Murdering T.I.'s Assistant

By Ace Cannon

A jury has convicted the man accused of gunning down rapper T.I.'s assistant last May after a show in Cincinnati. Hosea Thomas, 35, was found guilty on all counts - including murder - today (November 26).

Prosecutors claimed Thomas was the triggerman in May 3 2006 shooting, while his brother Padron drove the Jeep that chased two of the rapper's vans down I-75.

The incident stemmed from an earlier altercation inside of Club Ritz, where Hosea was struck in the head with a bottle.

Hosea Thomas was convicted of firing the shots into T.I.'s van that struck and killed Philant Johnson, who died from a gunshot wound to the left temple.

Three other members of T.I.'s entourage were injured during the fire fight, which took place on the interstate.

Hosea Thomas was convicted after a number of people testified he was the shooter, including his own brother Padron, who will receive a lesser sentence for his cooperation.

Hosea Thomas faces 20 years to life in prison when he is sentenced December 23.

In related news, T.I. and his Grand Hustle counterparts plan to give back to their Atlanta community, through a series of charitable events this Thanksgiving.

At 7:00 PM, T.I. will head to Adamsville Recreation Center, where he and members of his Grand Hustle imprint will host a turkey giveaway.

On Thanksgiving, the rapper will head to Turner Field, where they will take part in the Hosea Feed The Hungry & Homeless event.

After a press conference, which kicks off at 9:00 am, T.I. and his entourage will help serve food and will also speak encouraging words to the children and parents in attendance.

I strongly believe thats the reason T.I. bougt the machine guns for.

But it's his own fault. He wanted to commit the crime. Now he gotta do the time. Busting your gun at vans while you chasin them becuz you got hit with a bottle?
He asked for it.
