In case you missed our first update from 6ix9ine’s sentencing hearing today you can find it here. Below, you’ll find 6ix9ine’s lawyer, Lance Lazzaro, continue to address the court on his client’s behalf.

Lazzaro: From the day he appeared before Magistrate Pitman, he cooperated. He took down a major gang. Four other additional defendants were arrested and taken off the street because of Mr. Hernandez. His testimony was believed by the jury.

Lazzaro then asks the judge to sentence 6ix9ine to “time served + 3 years of supervised release.”

Lazzero: When you get to know him, he's not a bad kid. If given a second chance by your Honor, I believe you will never see him again. I'm asking for Time Served and three years of supervised release.

6ix9ine now begins his testimony.

Hernandez: I denounced being Nine Trey before the arrest. I was aware that the mother of my child was having sexual relations with Kifano Jordan. Via text messages. I was already kidnapped by Anthony Ellison. The booking agents were stealing hundreds of $1000s

Hernandez: I am not a victim. I put myself into this position from Day One. I allowed them in. That was my decision. To the lady who came forward, Ms. LL, I don't know you. I'm sorry for what happened.

Hernandez: I know that throwing my money at a situation is not the best result. But whatever medical bills you want me to pay, I will. I'm sorry that happened to you.
I was in third grade the last time I saw my biological father, a fucking glance I took, sorry

Hernandez: I wrote a letter, I'll read it. [Voice changes] I know there is no apology that can kill off the pain we have all been effected by. I'm not perfect. I made a lot of bad choice but that does not make me a bad person.

Hernandez: If you told me in January 2017 I'd be a global star, I'd call your crazy. If in January 2018 you'd tell me I'd be part of a federal indictment, I'd call you crazy… Since the age of 14, when I lost my father. At 15, 16, 17 I'd see my mom wake up early

Hernandez: I wanted to prove something to the world. I wanted the world to see me as an example, that you are in control of where you go. I used my platform to push the message, If I did it, why can't you? I gave people hope.

Hernandez: Your honor, a 5 year old boy named Franklin was dying of cancer. He wanted to meet me. I asked myself, Why? But I went. Cancer had disabled the right side of his body. I told him how strong he was.

Hernandez: I realized I was not just a kid with rainbow hair and 69 tats – Franklin told me I was hope. Then I met another girl named Tati. She broke out of her shell. It was September. The family was struggling. I took them school shopping for the year

Hernandez: Tati told me, if I can be strong, they can be strong. When people see me, they don't only see Tekashi 69, the arrogant – I'm a human, I got organs just like everyone in this room. They see Daniel Hernandez, not Tekashi 69

Hernandez: I failed these kids, the millions of kids, my own kids, I haven't spoke too, the whole time incarcerated. It will be a priority of mine to visit low income families.

— Inner City Press (@innercitypress) December 18, 2019

Hernandez: I failed these people. They believed in Daniel Hernandez. I was too busy making the negative image in my 69 persona. I know God has a bigger plan for me. I want to inspire the youth that it never too late to change.

— Inner City Press (@innercitypress) December 18, 2019

Hernandez: If I can change for the better, so can they. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. I lost my father to violence. I grew up with no guidance. It was me, I live it, so I know.

— Inner City Press (@innercitypress) December 18, 2019

Hernandez: Your Honor, allow me to inspire people. Not only the young people here, but the millions around the world listening and watching. [How?]

Now Mr. Hernandez's biological father raises his hand to speak. Judge Engelmayer says, I'm sorry, it's too late
