Judge won’t allow Ja Rule to pay his boys bail
Posted by Media Outrage on February 28, 2008
A New York Judge has ruled that the co-defendants in Ja Rule’s gun possession case must come up with their own bail money. He can’t put the dough up to bail them out. Never heard this before but anyway….

According to Newsday, State Supreme Court Justice Micki Scherer said Wednesday (Feb 27), that Ja, born Jeffrey Atkins, “put himself in the position of perhaps controlling the outcome of the case,” adding that she felt it could pose a big problem.
Ja Rule was arrested on July 22 along with limo driver Mohamed Gamal and Ja’s road manager, Dennis Cherry, following a Lil’ Wayne concert at the Beacon Theater in New York.
The charges resulted from a .40 caliber handgun discovered in the rapper’s Maybach by police, who searched the vehicle after detecting the smell of marijuana.
The following day, Ja posted Gamal and Cherry’s combined $170,000 bond, as well as his own $150,000 bond, using his $3.5 million Saddle River, NJ home as collateral.
Mediaoutrage- The person who comes up with ‘arrest’ insurance for rappers is going to die a billionaire.
