NBA YoungBoy Denied Bail; Is Going to Be Locked Up For A While

The good news for NBA YoungBoy is that the Feds don't seem to be pursuing RICO charges against him.

The bad news is a federal judge in the Middle District of Louisiana has denied him bail on his September 2020 gun case.

"He is charged with possessing a gun as a convicted felon, and he possessed another gun as he fled from law enforcement at the time of his arrest,” Read the filing against YB. “When his gun possession is combined with his violent crime, attempts to flee from law enforcement, which included a high speed chase in and around a neighborhood that included a middle school, and his pervasive marijuana use Gaulden clearly and convincingly presents a danger to the community.”

YB was picked up last month in Los Angeles on an outstanding federal warrant.  When the LAPD pulled him over he fled and sent the K-9 unit to fetch him, which they did successfully.

Now he's looking at some serious jail time, both before and after his trial.
