Amid #JuelzSantana’s legal issues surrounding his recent indictment on two federal firearms charges, the rapper is looking to make some adjustments to the conditions of his bond release.
According to The @Blast, in an effort to support his girlfriend and kids, the rapper has asked a judge to allow him to travel outside of New Jersey. He says the money produced from touring is the only way he can support his family, so he needs the okay to leave the Garden State.
The rapper’s legal drama stems from an incident that occurred in March when Juelz fled the scene as TSA agents discovered a Derringer .38-caliber handgun in his carry-on bag. After turning himself in, Juelz was slapped with charges, an ankle monitor upon his release on a $500,000 bond and ordered to house arrest at his mother’s home in NJ.
