by

Father’s Day is one of the most special and significant holidays of the year. It gives loved ones in the parents’ lives a chance to celebrate them and recognize them for all of the amazing things that they do each day. They certainly deserve all of the love and admiration for what they are able to provide for their families. Unfortunately, not every dad on the planet is fortunate enough to enjoy that special day. However, New Orleans, Louisiana rapper Rob49, wanted to give three lucky dads a chance to celebrate Father’s Day this year.

Speaking with WDSU NewsChannel 6, Rob49 expressed how important father figures are as a whole. He was speaking from experience, revealing that his father was also incarcerated and how much he could have helped him if he was at home.

Chrisean Rock’s Arrest Has Wack 100 Fed Up: “Nothing Blueface Can Do”

by

Earlier this week, things took an unfortunate turn for Chrisean Rock, as the new mother was taken into custody upon entering a San Fernando Valley courtroom. Reportedly, she had shown up to support her child’s father Blueface, who’s currently dealing with his own fair share of legal issues. TMZ captured footage of the Baddies star being escorted off the premises in handcuffs shortly after she was spotted walking in with her son.

It was later confirmed that Chrisean was arrested due to a felony fugitive warrant out of Oklahoma dating back to 2022. Immediately, fans expressed concern for her son’s well-being and had several questions about the sticky situation. Luckily, Blueface’s manager Wack 100 recently took to social media to clear some things up. He also provided more details of what she’s currently up against.

Wack 100 Confirms That Chrisean Rock Is Being Held Without Bail

He began his message by confirming that despite fans’ demands, he is unable to bail Chrisean out of jail. According to him, Chrisean is being held without bail for an alleged probation violation. He says that all she and her loved ones can do now is wait until the judge makes a decision. Wack adds that at worst, she could end up spending a few months behind bars. Fortunately, even that seems unlikely to him.

“We don’t need to get her attorney, okay?” he explained. “That’s the bottom line. That judge is gonna do what that judge is gonna do when she gets back down [to Oklahoma].” What do you think of Chrisean Rock getting arrested this week while attending Blueface’s court hearing? What about Wack 100 clarifying that she can’t be bailed out, despite fans’ demands? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Vybz Kartel Denied Bail Following Overturned Murder Conviction

by

Vybz Kartel was arrested over a decade ago for his alleged role in the disappearance of his associate Clive “Lizard” Williams, whose body has yet to be found. In March, things began to look up for the beloved dancehall artist when he appealed his life sentence. His appeal was successful and the conviction was overturned, though he can still be retried.

Today, however, he and his co-defendants Shawn “Shawn Storm” Campbell and Andre St John appeared in court in Kingston where Supreme Court Justice Andrea Thomas denied them bail. This means that they must stay behind bars until they’re formally acquitted or a decision is made regarding a retrial. “In view of the fact that their appeal is not yet determined they should remain in custody until their appeal is concluded,” Justice Thomas explained. “That is until a verdict of acquittal is entered or there is a decision for a retrial.”

Vybz Kartel & His Co-Defendants Will Remain Behind Bars

The ruling was announced after the men’s attorney Isat Buchanan argued that “a conviction must exist for there to be authority to detain” them. The state fired back, claiming that they weren’t acquitted just because their convictions were overturned by the Privy Council. Instead, they’re said to be back to their pre-trial status along with “live” murder charges.

When Vybz’s conviction was overturned, his attorneys cited alleged juror misconduct that took place during his 2014 trial. They accuse one juror of offering the others $500K in an attempt to sway the outcome. “The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council has concluded that the appeals should be allowed and the appellants’ convictions should be quashed on the ground of juror misconduct, and that the case should be remitted to the Court of Appeal of Jamaica to decide whether to order a retrial of the appellants for the murder of the deceased,” the Privy Council said in a statement at the time. What do you think of Vybz Kartel and two of his co-defendants getting denied bail? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Sean Kingston’s Mother Is Out Of Jail After Shocking Arrest For Fraud

by

Sean Kingston’s family was in for a big shock last week, as he and his mother were both arrested on accusations of fraud and theft. Whereas authorities caught the singer at a concert in California, where he remains awaiting his extradition hearing for Florida, they brought Janice Turner into custody during Thursday’s (May 23) raid on his Florida home. According to court records, she faces eight charges including organizing a scheme of defraudation, grand theft, and identity theft. The 61-year-old attended her bail hearing on Friday (May 24) and later provided the $160,000 bail that led to her Sunday afternoon (May 26) release from the Broward County jail, according to TMZ.

Furthermore, police also arrested Sean Kingston that Thursday while he was in Fort Irwin, California for a performance at a military event. It’s a little unclear whether he’s been in jail this whole time or if he already had his extradition hearing and is just waiting for the next steps. Either way, it looks like they both have a lot of legal issues to deal with for the rest of 2024. It would also add onto their previous history, as Janice Turner already has a 2005 conviction for bank fraud.

Sean Kingston’s Mother Attends Bail Hearing

Meanwhile, as for the raid on Sean Kingston’s Florida home, TMZ reportedly obtained some photos from inside the property (which you can check out with the “Via” link down below) that detail some of what went down. Apparently, the cops got some valuable merchandise and property out of the house, including a massive LED television set valued at $150,000. This could relate to how authorities want the Kingstons to repay for their alleged crimes. The claims are that they stole almost $500,000 in jewelry, over $200,000 from Bank Of America, $160,000 from a car dealer, $100,000 from First Republic Bank, and $86,000 for a custom bed.

As such, this totals over $1 million in allegedly stolen goods, services, or fraudulent transactions, which is a pretty steep amount to answer for. This hasn’t resulted in much sympathy from the entertainment world, as The Game recently clowned Turner’s mugshot. However, there’s a chance that this could all turn around for Sean Kingston, so we’ll have to see what other updates emerge. Stressing out about prison is one thing, but dealing with your mother’s place in it must be another feeling entirely that is now moot.

Meek Mill paid tribute to his mom on Twitter, on Sunday, in honor of Mother’s Day by recalling a time she paid his bail while he was locked up. He explained that he needed to come up with $9,500 and none of his friends were coming through. “When I was locked up my bail was 9500 most these so call homies didn’t put up anything … my mom had to throw a fish fry to raise the money to get me home!” Meek wrote. “Happy Mother’s Day love you 4L and after … happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers gone.”

Drake Missouri Concert Crash: Alleged Killer Bails Out

by

Drake is an artist who tries to keep the audiences at his show feeling as positive as possible. On recent tours, he’s been kind enough to give out luxurious designer bags, cash prizes, and even vehicles to random patrons, or people who come to his shows to celebrate after battling cancer. Despite his best efforts, there’s a lot that remaisn outside of the Canadian’s control, including reckless drivers outside the venue. Following his performance in Missouri earlier this month, a mother-daughter duo lost their lives after 22-year-old Monte Henderson sped through a red light.

According to WPDE, the young man was released from jail last Friday (February 23). At the time, he posted $20K, or 10% of his $200K bail, court records obtained by the outlet reveal. Henderson was arrested on two counts of first-degree involuntary manslaughter charges and two counts of armed criminal action. His victims were 42-year-old Laticha “Lety” Bracero and her daughter, 21-year-old Alyssa Cordova. The women were visiting from Chicago to see Drake in downtown St. Louis on Valentine’s Day when they lost their lives while crossing the street.

“Data retrieved from the Jeep Grand Cherokee indicated that the vehicle was traveling at speeds in excess of 70 mph prior to violating the red traffic signal,” court records notes. “Based on the foregoing and the serious nature of the charges, I believe that the defendant is not likely to appear voluntarily on a summons and is a danger to the community,” one officer wrote.

As the loved ones left behind by Bracero and Cordova continue to grieve their unexpected loss, Drake is likely feeling more grateful than ever for his mother, Sandra Graham’s presence in his life. Ending the most romantic month of the year on a mushy note, he shared a “forever core memory” of the blonde beauty with us on Instagram today. Check that out at the link below, and tap back in with HNHH later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Kay Flock Proposes Release On $1.4 Million Bail

by

Kay Flock’s been behind bars for a few years now, but evidently, his team is doing everything in their power to get him out. According to new court documents, the 20-year-old rapper’s defense recently requested that he be released on a $1.4 million bail. They argue that the performer has “no significant criminal history,” also noting that he hasn’t given authorities any reason not to trust him aside from his current charges.

In February of last year, officials indicted Flock on charges of racketeering, murder, attempted murder, and more. He’s accused of being part of a gang that allegedly “terrorized neighborhoods in the Bronx and Manhattan by killing and shooting other people,” U.S. Attorney Damian Williams says. If he’s convicted, Kay Flock could face a life sentence or the death penalty.

Kay Flock’s team is proposing that he be placed on house arrest if the judge decides to grant him bail. “Strict house arrest, GPS monitoring, posting significant properties and a third party custodian are less restrictive conditions,” the motion reads. “That will clearly protect public and erase all doubt for appearing in court.” Currently, his trial is scheduled to begin in September, 2024.

While it remains to be seen whether or not his motion will be granted, Kay Flock has shown signs that he’s on track since his arrest. In June of last year, for example, he shared an open letter on Instagram, urging followers to “stop the violence.” In the lengthy message, he opened up about losing two brothers to gun violence while behind bars. He also described his incarceration as a “life lesson.” What do you think of Kay Flock’s legal team proposing a $1.4 million bail package? What about the rapper’s request to be released and put on house arrest? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Keefe D’s Bail Set At $750k In Tupac Murder Case

by

Last year, fans were shocked to find that nearly 3 decades after the murder of Tupac Shakur, someone was finally arrested for it. That person was Keefe D who has long claimed to be involved. He’s been appearing in interviews for years now discussing details of the case online. In fact, many fans believe that his willingness and openness about the case is the primary reason he was ultimately arrested. Though his trial hasn’t begun yet he just scored a victory in the journey to stay at home until it does.

For the past few weeks in the pre-trial proceedings, Keefe D’s lawyers have been fighting to get him bail. The state prosecution in the case didn’t want him released on bail. They cited his previous gang affiliations and alleged threats he’s made to witnesses in the case as evidence for why he should stay behind bars. The judge didn’t agree and ended up granting Keefe D the opportunity to make bail setting it at $750k. While it’s a win for the accused it isn’t a full victory. His lawyers had originally asked that his bail be set at less than $100k. Though the amount is more than they were hoping he’s still likely to make bail and spend the next few months at home.

Keefe D Given $750k Bail

The delays in arriving at a bail hearing for Keefe D follow further delays that came earlier in the trial. That spawned from Keefe repeatedly having trouble with his legal representation. The trial had already been delayed at times when Keefe’s lawyers failed to show up in court at all.

The trial has unsurprisingly become one of the most discussed subject in rap circles recently. Debates have spawned on whether or not he will be found guilty with high-profile voices in the rap world appearing on both sides. What do you think of Keefe D’s bail being set at $750k? Do you think he will be able to beat the charges in the Tupac murder case? Let us know in the comment section below.

Keefe D’s Bail Hearing Delayed

by

Duane “Keefe D” Davis will have to wait another week to receive a ruling on his bail options after a judge in Nevada delayed his hearing on Tuesday. Judge Carli Kierny pushed the date back to January 9, arguing that Keefe D’s lawyers will need more time to respond to a recent filing by the prosecution.

His legal team has requested that bail be no higher than $100,000 and would prefer he be placed on house arrest while awaiting trial. They used his colon cancer as an example of health ailments that should factor into the decision. “Duane should not be denied bail in this case,” his lawyers argued. “It cannot be said that the proof is evident and the presumption great that Duane is guilty of first-degree murder for the death of Shakur. This Court should release Duane on house arrest with electronic monitoring pending trial.”

They continued: “He is not getting his bi-monthly oncologist check-ups. Additionally, his heart health has declined. He was put back on a group of medications to try to get things under control. He has to take these medications in jail because he is unable to do the things necessary to maintain proper health.”

Police arrested Keefe D for the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur back in September, believing that he orchestrated the attack. He’s since pleaded not guilty and his trial is scheduled to begin in June 2024. As of now, he’ll be staying at Clark County Detention Center. Be on the lookout for further updates on Keefe D’s trial as well as his bail hearing on HotNewHipHop.

Keefe D Is Too Dangerous For Bail In Tupac Murder Trial According To Prosecutors

by

Earlier this fans were intrigued by the Las Vegas Police Department all of a sudden showing renewed interest in the murder of Tupac Shakur. They executed a police raid that had to do with the murder, which happened more than 25 years ago. Then fans were stunned to find that they actually made an arrest in the case. Duane Davis, AKA Keefe D, was arrested for the murder of the legendary rapper. D has long been willing to discuss the case in interviews online and has occasionally let loose some details about his own personal involvement.

Last month after some legal tribulations related to his lawyers, Keefe D officially pleaded not guilty in the case. With the trial not due to begin until June, David was hoping to be released on bail in the meantime and get to spend the next few months at home. His lawyers called for his release in court and asked that his bail be set no higher than $100k. But the state of Nevada is fighting back. They’re claiming that he’s too dangerous to be reasonably released back into the public. They cite his previous alleged gang affiliations, reported threats he’s made against potential witnesses in the case, and his repeated discussion of his involvement with the case online as reasons he shouldn’t be freed in the meantime.

Prosecutors Argue Against Keefe D’s Bail

One of the claims that Keefe D is making is that his comments about Tupac were “entertainment.” It’s crucial to his case as he’s made some pretty incriminating claims publicly in the past. In court, he’s making the argument that many of the claims he made were exaggerated. He says they were made for the purpose of telling a more compelling story. Many online believe that Davis constantly discussing the murder in various interviews online was the primary cause of his arrest.

What do you think of the Nevada prosecutors argument that Keefe D is too dangerous to be released on bail ahead of his trial in June? Let us know in the comment section below.
