Stop Snitching producer sorry for tirade

Published December 27, 2007 5:00am ET



The producer of the “Stop Snitching” videos is apologizing to Baltimore City?s top prosecutor, Patricia Jessamy, and U.S. Rep. Elijah Cummings for a profane and derogatory tirade made against them on his latest DVD.

“My mother always taught me that no matter what, you respect your elders,” producer Rodney Bethea, 34, a Philadelphia native who moved to Baltimore in 1994, told The Examiner on Wednesday. “I feel it wasn?t right, the type of language that was used against them. I?m apologizing to them for that. I didn?t say it, but it was on my film. It?s almost like I was approving of it.”
