News broke earlier this week that Chief Keef associate Lil Durk was busted on a felony gun charge. However, Durk's lawyer, Sam Adam Jr., told a judge that Durk was wrongly arrested because the gun didn't belong to the 20-year-old rapper.
Adam claims that another man by the name of Clarence January signed an affidavit stating that the Glock .40 cal. confiscated by cops was in fact his.
“[January] tried to tell the officers at the time [that it was his gun] but they took [Durk] anyway,” Adam told Cook County Judge Maria Kuriakos Ciesil.
According to police, Lil Durk tossed the weapon into a nearby car on Wednesday before he was arrested. Durk is currently on parole for a previous gun conviction.
Apparently there are several signed affidavits from witnesses that claim they saw January aka BJ throw the gun into the car. January is also 20-years-old and a felon.
One witness said that officers repeatedly asked, "Who's gun is this?" and January responded, "It's my gun." According to witnesses, the cops ignored January as he made the admission and allegedly one officer told him, "give me a reason to kill your black ass."
The judge set Durk's bail at $100,000, saying she had to take the prosecution's claims and the rapper's criminal past into consideration.
Durk's attorney told the judge that although the Chi-Town spitter is signed to a major label, he hasn't been able to earn much because he's still a new artist. Adam also brought up the fact that Durk's wife is expected to give birth today.
