Lil Wayne Facing Prison Over Gun Charges

February 25th, 2009

A spokeswoman for the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office announced Tuesday (Feb 23) that rapper Lil Wayne could face up to 15 years jail when he faces criminal gun possession charges, in a trial beginning April 20.

New York State Supreme Court Judge Charles Solomon ordered jury selection to commence once Wayne, born Dwayne Carter, finishes his current touring commitments.

The rap star faces one count of criminal weapons possession and one charge of criminal possession of a loaded weapon after police allegedly found the gun on his tour bus in 2007.

Carter wraps up his current tour on April 12.

    Yeah for sure it wasnt right.. and it is bull shit that he is gong to be in there.. but hell yeah he is going to make some sick music while he is in there .. so yeahh he will be locked up for a while and not in the business but when he gets out we should all expect some amazing shit.

    I think its sooo fucking retarded..if lil wayne was paris hilton or some other dumb ass bitch, theres no way he would go to prison..he wasnt aiming his gun trying to shoot anyone..but its alrite for these stupid ass celebs going around heavely drinking then driving and getting in car wrecks..and just getting probation..FUCK THA SYSTEM..hes a rapper and a damn good one at that..and cops must be mad cuz they never amounted to half of what weezy is..and they NEVER WILL..he and everyother rapper should get treated just like the stupid lil white bitches around LA..they shouldnt be judged just cuz they are black and rappers.
