The Aging Rapper Was Arrested Driving In Las Vegas Early Thursday; Arrest Could Send Him To Prison For Other Felony Driving Case Flavor Flav’s latest arrest behind the wheel may ruin his chance for a deal in his other felony driving case, BOSSIP has learned. Cops pulled over Flav, real name William Drayton, early Thursday in Las Vegas for speeding and allegedly found weed, an open container of booze and a fake registration. Flav’s license was also suspended. The arrest mirrors his other driving case in Long Island, where, in 2014, cops pulled him over for speeding on the way to his mother’s funeral. His license had also been suspended. He’s charged with felony operating a motor vehicle with a suspended license and faces up to four years in prison if he’s found guilty. He is due back in court on the case next month. The pattern of reckless driving may make the Nassau County District Attorney less likely to cut a deal or, if he’s convicted, the judge may push for a full sentence, a law enforcement source told BOSSIP. Flav’s New York lawyer, Indji Bessim, didn’t return a request for comment. The troubled father of seven was still in jail awaiting arraignment Monday, a spokeswoman from the Las Vegas District Attorney’s Office told BOSSIP. No one answered the phone at Flav’s Las Vegas home, and messages BOSSIP left on his cell phone were not returned.
