Migos’ Offset has been released from jail.
Yesterday, Offset, who is a convicted felon, was arrested in Atlanta, Georgia for drug and gun possession. The “T-Shirt” rapper was driving his 2014 Porshe Carrera with his bodyguard when police pulled him over for an alleged illegal lane change.
After approaching Offset’s vehicle and detecting a strong marijuana odor, police decided to search the vehicle. Upon searching the car, police discovered three handguns, more than $107,000 in cash, and some marijuana.
Ultimately, Offset was hit with four charges – possession of a firearm by a felon, possession of a weapon during a crime, possession of marijuana (one ounce or less), and an improper lane change.
Today, just after 10:00 a.m., Offset was released from Clayton County Jail in Jonesboro, after posting $17,000 bond. He is expected back in court on Sunday.
Offset’s attorney, Drew Findling, released the following statement, “Offset is home with his wife and newborn daughter. His most important focus right now is to be with his wife, children and family.”
Findling added, “Having been educated on this case in the last 24 hours, he did not commit any traffic offenses besides being a young African-American man in a flashy car wearing nice jewelry.”
“He has a security team that have licenses to possess firearms and he did not physically have any firearms in his possession. We will have to deal with this in court and address these legal issues. I am confident in telling you he is 100 percent innocent.”
