Muscletime Staff
IFBB Pro Bodybuilder Hidetada Yamagishi has been incarcerated since December 8, 2007 on steroiod possession and steroid distribution charges. Fortunately, he has retained one of the nation's top defense attorneys, Shawn Chapman Holley, to represent him in his legal case.
Shawn Chapman Holley is one of the most prominent celebrity attorney working in Hollywood with an impressive resume defending celebrities such as heiress Paris Hilton, Nicole Richey, actress Michelle Rodriguez, rappers The Game, Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg, actors Stan Shaw and Nia Long, NBA basketball stars Larry Johnson and Bryon Scott.
She is a Partner at Kinsella Weitzman Iser Kump & Aldisert LLP, the Chief Legal Correspondent for E! Entertainment Television, the former Managing Partner of the Los Angeles office of the Cochran Firm and the former Head of the Cochran Firm’s national Criminal Defense Section.
But she is probably best known as a member of O.J. Simpson’s defense team, aka the “Dream Team,” in Simpson’s criminal murder trial and as successfully defending Sara Jane Olson in her highly-publicized Symbionese Liberation Army legal case.
According to Flexonline, Shawn Chapman Holley hopes to reduce Hidetada Yamagishi's nine counts of steroid possession and steroid distribution charges down to 3 misdemeanors and time served. If so, then Hide will be released after his court appearance on February 6, 2008.
