The two men suspected of killing Memphis rapper Young Dolph have been given four days from today (Jan. 31) to find a lawyer.

During a previous hearing, a judge gave them nine days to have information about their decision prepared. The alleged killers claimed they would hire an attorney with their families’ assistance.

Young Dolph, best known for his feature on the OT Genasis track “Cut It,” was shot to death on Nov. 17, 2021. Smith and Johnson are accused of pulling up to a bakery where Young Dolph was picking up cookies and ambushing him. Prior to being named, police were searching for two men who were seen on the surveillance footage.

They were officially indicted on Jan. 12 and face multiple charges.
