Judge Allows Gun For Evidence In Lil Wayne Trial
Although he may be the last rapper in some time to go triple platinum [click to read], not all is going well for Lil Wayne.
A New York City judge says a handgun found on Lil Wayne's tour bus following a 2007 concert can be used as evidence at his trial, according to The Associated Press.
The rapper has pleaded not guilty to gun possession, and is currently free on $70,000 bail.
Wayne was arrested in July 2007 after a concert at the Beacon Theatre. A police officer reported boarding the tour bus because she smelled marijuana, and saw the rapper try to hide a gun.
Lil Wayne's defense attorney Stacey Richman argued that the officer lied about smelling the marijuana in order to board the bus.
Wayne's court date is currently set for April 20.
