Rapper YG won’t face charges in a robbery case from two years ago.
According to TMZ, L.A. District Attorney’s Office declined to file charges against the “Big Bank” rapper because there wasn’t enough evidence to connect him to the crime.
The D.A.’s office concluded that they could not link the Compton rapper to the crime, though it was suspected that he was on the scene.
“Not enough evidence of what defendant did to aid and abet the crime. Presence during the crime alone is not sufficient.”
Though it remains unclear what led to YG’s arrest, cops arrested him in January 2020 after showing up at his San Fernando Valley home with search warrants at 4 a.m. He was taken to Men’s Central Jail in L.A., where his bail was set at $250,000.
He later recalled the police raid while on The Morning Hustle, saying, “The police came, raided my house … with me and my family and my kids [inside],” he said. “They come through like four in the morning. We asleep, the helicopter had come around and all that. So boom, I bounced up like, ‘What’s going on?’
“I open the door – boom! They draw down on me. That’s normal, but my kids at the time were four years old and six years old. They upstairs in the room with their mama.”
YG always maintained his innocence, and his lawyer Joe Tacopina believed the police had a grudge against the rapper and were hassling him.
