Gunplay: Off the Hook in Armed Robbery Case

Rapper Gunplay is off the hook for robbing his accountant at gunpoint – despite video showing the whole damn thing – after the victim refused to cooperate. Makes you think. Gunplay Robbery: Rapper Pulls Gun The Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office told TMZ earlier : “Video alone is not enough to convict an individual of a crime beyond a reasonable doubt.” “Although the armed robbery is captured on , the victim, Turron Woodside, is uncooperative of the prosecution of this defendant Richard Morales [Gunplay].” Officials needed Woodside to authenticate the surveillance video to use it as evidence against Gunplay, who was accused of pulling a gun on him. He’s accused of stealing a cell phone and gold chain during the incident last fall; Gunplay was charged with armed robbery and aggravated assault. The State Attorney’s Office says the judge subpoenaed Woodside to appear in the case but prosecutors were unable to find him in order to serve him. Officials say Woodside’s family and co-workers have told the court “he’s out of town and/or coping with a family death” along with other excuses. The judge made it clear … without Woodside’s testimony, prosecutors couldn’t make their case, and they were forced to drop charges against Gunplay. Now that it’s over in any case, Gunplay says he’s gonna roll a fat ass J … oh, and spend time with his “loved ones.” He tells the celeb gossip site: “Today I am grateful and blessed that the case was dismissed,” he says. “I plan on picking up where I left off with my music and making hits with my upcoming debut album … The first thing I am going to do today is smoke a joint.” “Relax, play video games, and just be with my loved ones.” God speed, Gunplay. God speed.

He posted bail on the warrants and has a February 27 court date. The 37-year-old hip-hop artist is a member of the Diplomats. The New York-based rap crew has been around for years, and Jim Jones’ hit song “We Fly High” was actually one of 2007’s top-selling tracks.

GTFOHWTBS! Lil Wayne Kicked Out Of Miami Heat Game… Guess What He Did Wrong?

Weezy rooted for the Lakers … No seriously: But here’s the thing, another fan in the building says that he was actually booted for making a gun gesture — and a spokesman for the Heat says he actually left of his own accord. Via Y ahoo reports : During Sunday’s Miami Heat win over the L.A. Lakers, rapper Lil Wayne tweeted that he was ejected from American Airlines Arena for cheering for the visiting team. “So I’m @ da Heat game right, rootin 4 da Lakers kuz dats my team & would u believe they got police 2 make me leave?! Wow!” the rapper tweeted. He then added an epithet: “[Expletive] da Heat.” That caused quite a reaction on Twitter, as Lil Wayne has nearly 10 million followers. Yet he’s not the only one out there with an account of what happened Sunday. A fan named Danny Vega, who said he was near the rapper, had a different version of the incident: “Random guy yelled at Lil Wayne at #MiamiHEAT game, Weezy looked back, gave him a mean stare & gestured he had a gun,” tweeted Vega, who said he was at the game and sitting near Lil Wayne. “Weezy just got into argument with security at the #MiamiHEAT game. He got kicked out for gun gesture.” Heat spokeswoman Lorrie-Ann Diaz told USA Today in an email that Lil Wayne was not kicked out but instead chose to leave. NBA fans and fans of Lil Wayne will recall a similar disagreement during last year’s Western Conference finals, as the rapper claimed he wasn’t allowed entry into Oklahoma City’s Chesapeake Energy Arena. A spokesman for the Thunder later said Lil Wayne wasn’t allowed into the building because he didn’t have a ticket. So who is telling the truth? BTW, doesn’t this all remind you of the song “Take me out to the ball game”? The whole point is to root root root for the home team. Weezy got the game all twisted. Besides, the Lakers suck this season anyway. AP

They were on their way to marriage , according to some reports. They were just so darn cute together. So, what happened? What led to the Taylor Swift and Harry Styles breakup ? The couple was in Virgin Gorda on vacation when “they had a fight,” according to an Us Weekly insider, who adds that Styles said “something he shouldn’t have.” Hmmm…. let the theories fly: What could that be?!? Whatever those words may have been, they cut VERY deep, another source claims: “They are 100 percent over,” this mole alleges, noting that Swift can often be “intense.” We can almost see every other young male in Hollywood nodding along in agreement to that assessment.
