NBA YoungBoy got some good news. A judge has decided to release him on a “conditional bond.”
The 22-year-old artist will be placed on house arrest in Utah and will have military guards, DJ Akademiks reported.
The rapper’s lawyer proposed the plan earlier this week, which allowed him to be released on bond, Radar reported. He will be able to remain on house arrest at his brand-new home in the state.
YoungBoy said he would stay on track ahead of his upcoming trial with the support of his friends and family. His childhood friend Kyrie Oliver also testified that she would keep a watchful eye on him.
He has also hired his own security.
However, the prosecutor on the case was not with the idea of releasing the rapper, saying he was a danger to the community, and added that Oliver’s testimony to watch the rapper was because he had recently paid her $600,000.
“It demonstrates that every person Defendant called to testify has a financial stake in him being released. Bedrock Security stands to earn $21,000/week; Atlantic Records has a more than $2 million investment and intends to build him a studio; and Oliver. Those substantial financial ties make it less likely that they would report Defendant’s violations or deter him from engaging in conduct,” the government argued.
Still, the judge sided with the rapper’s defense, even after rejecting his previous attempts of being released.
