Remy Ready for Her Trial Close-Up

Now that's what we call a speedy trial date! Hey, Ma ... look, no delays!

Rapper Remy Ma was in Manhattan Criminal Court today, where the judge in her assault and witness-tampering case set a temporary date of Feb. 25 to begin the trial. Remy was popped in July 2007 for allegedly shooting her friend -- so it's only been, what, about eight months?

R. Kelly's court date took five-and-a-half years to set.

19. I hope she's convicted and serves some serious time instead of getting a slap on the wrist like most so-called celebrities. Hey, maybe she and Foxy Brown can be cellmates.

23. Daisy Duke: A speedy trial can be requested only BY THE ACCUSED. In America when one is charged with a jailable offense, one has the right to request a speedy trial. Before you go spouting stupid remarks, check your facts. And get some pants.

That is all.

24. Let’s face it people, once you become famous, you basically can do
whatever you want, It’s like having Carte Blanche
….You automatically get a “get out of jail free card“, not to mention
the “you can shoot your friend for free card” oh yeah and then
there’s the “you can molest little boy’s card” Mike Jackson
has a few of those…..oh, oh,….lets not forget the ’Smoke weed,
pretend it’s bi-polar , call me a police escort card” ….”The
Paris Hilton, slut think that I’m famous card”….”The Brandy,
I can kill you’re a-- on the freeway card”…..”I can drive drunk, kill someone and do 96 hours jail time, card”…The list goes on and on.

26. It's not the prosecution that's entitled to a fair and speedy trial, it's the defendant's right. Let her get appendicitis, let her judge fall off a ladder, let her prosecutor have a baby, and let her lawyer get busy with other big-profile cases then you'll see her case get pushed back too.
