Kenneth “Lil Woody” Copeland made a surprising move during Young Thug’s YSL RICO case by firing his lawyer while on the witness stand, as reported by Law & Crime. It was a dramatic moment when Copeland took the stand and Judge Glanville raised concerns about an issue involving Copeland’s stand-in attorney, Miss Bumpass.
