FABOLOUS ILLEGAL WEAPONS CHARGE DISMISSED
Rapper FABOLOUS will not face trial on an illegal weapons trial after a New York judge dismissed the case yesterday (14Jun07).
The rap star, real name John Jackson, spent a night in jail last October (06) following a shoot-out at mogul Diddy’s Manhattan restaurant Justin’s, during which he was wounded.
But prosecutors failed to prove that Fabolous was among the owners of two loaded handguns found in a car that was searched shortly after the incident, while the rapper was being treated in hospital for a gunshot wound.
His lawyer, Alberto Ebanks, says, "He should never have been here in the first place.
"There were four guys in the car. My client jumped in the back seat of the car after he was shot. It was not the car he came to the club in."
