Official Statement from Max B’s lawyer, Gerald Saluti on today’s guilty verdict:

“Max B would like to first thank all his family, friends and fans that
have supported him throughout this trial.  Please don’t give up on him
at this point.  Although the jury has spoken and Max has been convicted
of felony murder, kidnapping, robbery and conspiracy a swift and
successful appeal shall follow.  It is inconceivable that a jury would
convict Max under the facts presented by the State.  Even Gina Conway
the State’s own witness testified that Max knew nothing of a robbery.
Ms. Conway, a jilted lover and proven liar, said so at the trial
itself.  Max said after the verdict was read that he is confident that
justice will eventually be served and he will be free.  Max intends to
continue putting out music for his fans while the appeal process grinds
along.  Although shocked by the verdict, Max remained grateful.”
