#Roommates, last week, NBA YoungBoy was arrested and indicted on federal weapons charges in Los Angeles, with the hope of soon being releasedhowever that is not going to happen any time soon. According to recent reports, a judge recently revoked NBA YoungBoys $540,000 bond and ordered that he remain in jail until his official trial date.
@Complex reports, U.S. District Judge Shelly D Dick formally ordered that NBA YoungBoy remain detained in jail pending trial. Judge Dicks ruling was reportedly based on YoungBoys history of violating probation, along was his characteristics. Additionally, the Louisiana State Attorney noted that another reason he should remain in jail is because of his considerable wealth, stating that YoungBoys ability to quickly post bail and return back to the streets is of great concern. The State Attorney also said, despite the recommendation of the United States Probation and Pre-Trial Services Department that the defendant presents a risk of danger.
The official court documents of the ruling go into elaborate detail regarding why NBA YoungBoys (born Kentrell DeSean Gaulden) bond was revoked following his latest arrest:
Two factorsGauldens history and characteristics and the nature and seriousness of the danger posed by Gauldens releaseare closely related. U.S. Probation and Pre-Trial Services provided the Court with sealed, relevant information germane to Gauldens characteristics and history, which reflect a pattern of violent behavior stretching back several years. The Court also notes that based on their investigation into Gauldens history and background, U.S. Probation and Pre-Trial Services recommended detention. The exhibits offered by the Government, particularly the testimony from Gauldens June 2019 state probation revocation proceeding and the U.S. Probation and Pre-Trial Services report, convincingly satisfy the Court that there is a serious risk of danger to the public if Gaulden is released.
As we previously reported, NBA YoungBoy is currently charged with federal knowing possession of a firearm as a felon and possession of a firearm not registered to him.
