Offset To Appear In Court For Felony Charges

Migos Rapper Offset’s case of drug and unlicensed weapon possession has taken another turn and is expected to appear in court later this month.

Last year July the Motor Sport hit-maker was busted by police officers who claimed his car was smelling of marijuana, which prompted them to do a search, they found three guns, marijuana and R1 555 726,50. The rapper pleaded innocent to the charges brought against him by prosecutors.

Clayton County D.A.’s Office says Offset is facing the felony charge for firearms possession by a convicted felon, along with misdemeanor charges for marijuana possession and the improper lane change, although a felony charge of possession of a weapon during the commission of a crime was dropped.

“Jail is not imminent. Even if he were sentenced for the felony gun possession, the Judge has the discretion to probate or suspend Offset’s sentence. Also, the District Attorney and Offset’s defense lawyers may come to a negotiation for a sentence that does not involve jail, explained Alan.J Levine (Criminal Defense Attorney) speaking to Hollywood Life.

“However, the Judge is free to accept or reject the negotiations. If the Judge rejects the negotiation, than the attorneys will have to rework their proposed sentence,” he continues. Levine also says Offset better behave himself and not get in any trouble with the law. “Also, if Offset is given probation and then re-arrested, he’s at risk for serving all of his remaining sentence in prison. Probation is just a jail sentence one gets to serve outside and free so long as you don’t mess up!” he added.
