Andrew Tate reveals prison story where he tricked the police
Tristan Tate and his brother Andrew spent four months in jail after being arrested by Romanian police. After continuing to advocate for justice, the Tate brothers were released earlier this year and placed on house arrest.
During an interview with Patrick Bet-David, Tate detailed a story of him and his brother tricking the Romanian police while behind bars:
"They bugged our cell...Me and Tristan instantly knew...So then we start talking about Ricky Tan, crime boss from Hong Kong and how Carter and Lee are the ones that can stop him. What we were doing is describing the plot of Rush Hour 2...They're in the case files. Ricky Tan, Carter, Lee, Hong Kong, it's all in the case files."
The Tate brothers are accused of several crimes, including organizing a crime group and human trafficking. Over the past year, they have received tons of support from fans on social media who believe they are innocent. Only time will tell if they can be acquitted in a court of law.
