<h3 style="text-align: center;">More Details Regarding Boosie&#8217;s Federal Arrest</h3>
<p>Boosie, born Torrence Hatch, Jr., was arrested by federal agents outside of a San Diego courthouse on Wednesday (June 14) for possessing a weapon by a felon. A judge had just dismissed his state gun charges.</p>
<p>However, the 40-year-old age rapper was arrested for that same May incident outside the courtroom by the agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.</p>
<p>On Thursday (June 17), Boosie was held without bail after his first court appearance. Prosecutors filed a motion during that hearing to seal the rapper&#8217;s arrest warrant and criminal complaint.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Disclosure in the public record at this time likely would cause the targets to flee to avoid prosecution, destroy, or discard evidence, and otherwise seriously jeopardize the investigation,&#8221; the motion read.</p></blockquote>
