Weezy is looking at 15 Years [pics]

Share By admin ⋅ February 27, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Lil’ Wayne was quick to think he was going to get his gun charges dropped, but he was politely told to sit that ass down by a Manhattan Court:


A Manhattan judge shot down rapper Lil’ Wayne’s bid to toss a gun case lodged against him – and instead set a trial date.
Defense lawyer Stacey Richman tried to quash the July 2007 arrest, claiming a cop lied about smelling marijuana wafting out of the Grammy winner’s tour bus and used it as an excuse to board.
“The motion is denied,” Supreme Court Justice Charles Solomon told the 26-year-old star, whose real name is Dwayne Carter, in court on Tuesday.
The hugely popular “Lollipop” singer sat in the courtroom in a black leather jacket, blue jeans and black-rimmed glasses as giddy fans whispered about asking for his autograph.
The cop testified at a hearing in Manhattan Supreme Court last fall that after she smelled pot coming from the bus on the upper West Side, she boarded and found a loaded, 9-mm. handgun in the singer’s Louis Vuitton bag.
Richman argued the cop was several blocks away, helping another officer arrest rapper Ja Rule, whose real name is Jeffrey Atkins, also on gun charges.
The hip-hop artists were busted after a Lil’ Wayne & Friends concert at Broadway’s Beacon Theater.
Authorities have said the two busts were an hour apart.
The judge set a trial date of April 20, but not before all sides skirmished over conflicts with the star’s upcoming tour schedule.
“I’m not psychic, nor is Mr. Carter,” Richman said of Carter’s professional commitments beyond April 12, when his tour ends. Richman asked for time “to consult with the booker.”
The judge refused. “I’m not going to take a backseat here,” Solomon said before setting a trial date.
Carter faces felony weapons charges and up to 15 years in prison if convicted.

  2. I know, we need him to make music. Hopefully he gets off with community service or some big fines or something.

  5. Yeah..i read this is the paper yesterday, seems a bit extreme but the law is taking it real serious, and 15 years it there penatly for it. If convicted the lowest wayne can get off with is about 4 years which is still more than enough

  9. dam man look at that adams apple fuckin huge but that sucks how hes going to jail but always remeber when people say 15 years they mean up to 15 years so he could get less probably if he pays some fines and does community service but those would be some big fines

  11. yah ur right wit the fines
    he could do it but we all
    know hes floatin in money he
    could arrange somethin especially
    cuz he has so many young money rappers to get money from and
    he got birdman on his back so
    he’s prolyl chillin for a couple
    of years if anything in jail.
