1. Brian Steel is a defense lawyer's defense lawyer. 2. It's absolutely bonkers that the judge is so upset by the revelation that he had a secret ex parte meeting with the prosecutor, and a key witness in the middle of a massive trial that he would hold Steel in contempt.
YOUNG THUG'S LAWYER HAS EVIDENCE OF COERSION AND WITNESS INTIMIDATION BY THE JUDGE AND THE STATE. THE JUDGE WANTS TO KNOW HOW HE FOUND OUT BUT STEEL ISN'T RATTING. THE JUDGE THREATENS STEEL WITH JAIL. WOODY ALSO APPARENTLY ADMITTED HE'S THE ONE WHO KILLED NUT. CORRUPTION.
