Benzino on Getting Shot by His Nephew, But Not Snitching on Him

Benzino stopped by VladTV to talk with us about how his nephew confessed to shooting him at his mother's funeral, how the code of the streets have changed since he was younger, his father's ties to the mafia and much more. Benzino let us know the trial hasn't happened yet in regards to his shooting, but he made it clear he never pointed out his nephew was the one who shot him, the only reason people found out is that his nephew confessed, but he still doesn't know who "shot him." Benzino and Vlad then got into a conversation about snitching. "If you sit there and say yea he shot me, and he gonna do 100 years, that's snitching on him... the reason why that code is so important is because when you're in the streets, and you're doing dirt you don't want people snitching on you..." Benzino explained this is something he taught his children as well. "We don't tell on anybody." " We're living in some f**ked up times right now when I grew up it was different; you would get f**ked up royally for snitching." Benzino continued the conversation about his children letting us know he doesn't want them to take the route that he did. He said all of his kids are walking the right path. "I never want my kids to go through half the sh*t I've been through, not even a quarter..." Benzino has worked hard to keep his children out of the streets. Benzino says it stems from his father having major ties to the mafia. His father did 20 years for being involved with the Italian Mafia. They respected his Dad, and this rubbed off on Benzino. His father had ties to the Italian, Irish, and Columbian Mafia. "Whatever he told me to do I did." Check out the clip above.
