(Photos) Soulja Boy and Entourage Appear Before Judge
Soulja looks SHOOK! And I would too if I was a famous rapper and got pulled over with weed, guns and lots of loot in the car. One of his entourage members can easily take the rap for it but we know how the judicial system enjoys making “examples” out of rappers more often than not! I mean Lindsay Lohan has violated probation time and time again, was drunk driving, doing drugs, stealing…and barely gets a day in prison. Lil Wayne had a gun on his bus that he wasn’t even holding and could have belonged to anyone else and goes to jail for 9 months. Shame. Check out the pic of SB and his crew appearing before the judge below. He is currently out on $10,000 bail. Marisa Mendez
