NBA Young Boy Found Not Guilty Of Gun Possession Charge

NBA Young Boy Found Not Guilty Of Gun Possession Charge

An arrest warrant for NBA YoungBoy in March 2021 involved a gun-possession charge. However, he was already suspected of another crime – a federal warrant for a gun-possession case in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. His legal team claimed he was unaware of the federal warrant and that his client had panicked when armed police approached him. They also claimed no fingerprints or DNA tied him to the gun.

After two hours of deliberation, a federal jury found NBA YoungBoy not guilty of charges related to gun possession. The rapper, whose real name is Kentrell Gaulden, had faced up to 10 years in prison for the charge. The jury found him not guilty of both the firearms and the ammunition, which is a relief because he was facing a ten-year prison sentence if convicted.

The verdict is a major victory for NBA YoungBoy. His legal team managed to get the crowd going by announcing that he is not guilty of all charges. This case is not over, however. NBA YoungBoy will still have to face a trial in Louisiana, despite the verdict in the California case. However, his Baton Rouge case was delayed because of a federal warrant. A status conference is set for August 2 at which point the rapper’s next court appearance will be scheduled.

The verdict in the NBA YoungBoy gun case is a huge victory for the rapper and could have major implications for other high-profile cases involving rappers. The rapper still faces a criminal conviction in Louisiana for a separate gun charge. Ultimately, NBA YoungBoy will be freed of the charges. The jury still has to decide if he will serve a prison sentence in the Louisiana case.

Throughout the trial, the court heard testimony from the federal agent who testified that the gun was recovered after two searches of the young boy’s car. The defense attorneys argued that Gaulden did not know the gun was in the car at the time of the arrest. The judge also excluded lyrics from the court’s case. In addition, YoungBoy’s lawyers argued that he did not know the gun was in his car when he pulled over the vehicle.

The defense claims that the rapper is innocent of the gun possession charges and that other people had access to the car. James Manasseh, Gaulden’s attorney, argued that the prosecutor failed to prove the case by proving that DNA linked his client to the gun. He also said that the gun was hidden by someone else.
