Lil’ Wayne Not Guilty, Freed

According to his attorney, William Head, Lil’ Wayne’s latest incident that took place on Friday night and brought him in jail was just a misunderstanding.

Head was astonished to learn late Friday night that his client was escorted to Ada County Jail on felony fugitive charges in connection to a 2006 arrest in Georgia on possessing illegal substances, such as marijuana and more than 100 Xanax and hydrocodone pills.

But according to the 25-year rapper whose original name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., the lawyer that was in charge with his cases at that time told him that the case was dismissed and they have never thought about it again.

Lil’ Wayne remained in the Ada County Jail from Friday night, when he was arrested right after his show at the Qwest Arena in Boise, Idaho until Saturday evening, when his lawyer cleared things up before court. Head claimed that his client might have not been aware of the charges. “They were under the impression that those charges had either been resolved or dismissed,” Head stated.

Lil’ Wayne was released on $20,000 bail by Fulton County judge Craig Schwall’s decision and until further procedures are established, he will be as free as bird.

He had been oblivious of the any notices due to the fact he had been on tour a long period of time, not being aware that he had been declared a fugitive for having missed two court hearings in Fulton County in August.

Lil’ Wayne is expected to appear in Fulton County court on Tuesday.
