T.I. Out On $3M Bond, Under House Arrest

Monday, October 29, 2007
By: Kenny Rodriguez


T.I.T.I. was freed on Friday after posting a $3 million bond and must remain under house arrest while he awaits trial on federal weapons charges.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Alan Baverman ordered that T.I. must stay in his home while being monitored 24 hours a day by a privately hired officer at the rapper’s expense.

“I want to thank all the fans for their support,” T.I. said as he left the courthouse. “Due to the severity of the situation, I can't say much more.”

“I want to get all of this behind me,” he added before driving off in a black sports utility vehicle.

T.I., born Clifford Harris, was arrested by federal authorities on Oct. 13 for allegedly buying unregistered machine guns and silencers.

If convicted, Harris could face a combined 20 years in prison and a $500,000 fine for two counts of weapons charges.

A status conference for the case is scheduled for Monday, Nov. 5.

T.i. Is one of the best rappers alive! i don't think he should go to jail, its not like he killed someone... Why didn't oj simpson go to jail?!... And why did lil kim only do one year in jail?!... Its not fair that t.i. Faces up to 10 years in jail, maybe even 20!!!!... T.i. Should be released, he did nothing wrong... Why does he have to go to jail when there are people out there living free that have done worse!!!???... Oh man what i would do to meet t.i... I wish i would ever since the first day i found out about him getting arrested i have been on the 'follow" up since the first day!!! i am so stressed right now!!! t.i. Will always have my respect no matter what!!!! he is the best and will always be the best no matter what!!!

T.i. Is all that and i definetly got much support towards him he's hated on by plenty and loved by many what he did happens everyday but cause he is t.i. And the fact that he got ratted on makes it worst i think he will walk it off with some house arrest or something like that we all take a fall but when we rise it aint know stopping us can't wait for this album to drop thats all it will be another hit record for him he know what he did & i judges no one my name is "prettychick" not "almighty one"

Why do all ti fans cling on to the imaginary fact that he didn't do anything wrong? the dude had more guns than tony montana. I bet if your least-favourite rapper was sent to jail for possession of fire-arms, you'd all be going "lulz he got wut he dezervd!111!!!1"

I love ti, but i think this is the kind of negative image that society see all the time that makes them say rap is a bad influence. We do have to realize people make mistakes and ti made a huge one. I can't wait until this is behind him and he can move on, and next time he needs to make better decisions; don't waste your talent ti we need your music keep ya head up much love peace

T.i he straight but i really don't like him because my n*gga gucci mane beefin wit him.but i still like him though.and one more thing i think he should get arrested because that aint fair how they be lettin these starz get away wit sh*t.but if we do some sh*t the people who ain't famous we get locked up and will get alot of years so i think he should get them years honestly!!!but u still my n*gga though!!!
Posted by babe boss
Aint no doubt what the dude did was wrong...er body know that...dude shant have like enough guns to fit soldiers wit...but honestly, t.i. Is the best and my fav rapper of all time...idk if 10-20 years is fair...good luck bro...much love

Damn yea he was wrong but again so what it happens everyday but cause it's t.i. Is what makes so controversal but is it a crime 4 his fans 2 sho a ni**a sum support he's in a crazy position right now & all a ni**a needs is a little luv & support sh*t it's cool 4 him 2 give us good records and we go buy em but it's not cool 4 us to sho sum love @ a bad time ya'll killing me but what would we do w/o haters...1
Posted by prettychick
I think that the police are only messing wit ti so they can get some settlement money from him.they know if they try to lock him up they can get him to pay them off before he has to stay in jail. It' s all a cat and mouse game wit the police tryin to get the cheese. T.i., pay them boys so you can go back to runnin da streets.

Posted by DA MAYOR
I dont know i am kind of on both sides with this whole thing t.i. Was buing guns to protect himself cause there was an attempt to take his life but on the other hand the law is the law and you cant have a convicted felon buying unregistered guns especially when they are machine guns with silencers. I think he should just pay a big ass fine and keep making that good music.

I honestly don't think he would do something like that, knowing he could go down. I think some people around him set him up, and it's sad that people will turn on you. I support you 100% t.i. And you're still my favorite rapper! your cd is always in my cd player!

Lots of famous people do that!!! it's not like he's the only person who does that!!!
Posted by daddysangel
I don't think that it would be right if you put him on house arrest; he made a mistake and he could admit to it. I think that they should keep him on house arrest for alittle bit; and just let it slide. You know....give lil homey another chance everybody makes mistakes. And i'm damn sure if you check everybody you would find guns at they house if they got the same status as t.i. Does. What do you expect him to do; just sit there waiting for somebody to try to front.
Posted by LIL GGEE
So wat he shouldnt get convicted for that because its not that serious if it was a white entertainer or rapper they would"ve went to jail or it would"ev been that serious im not saying wat he got caught doing was right but come on every body just know all these rappers have money so they feel to charge them 4 all they money if it was some regular person they wouldnt try to charge them with all of that because they dont have all of that so get off of t.i.p. Tip thanx 4 hearing me out i support clifford harris a 100%i will always love u baby please believe that

T.i. Is one of the best of all time when this is all over he will be the type to walk it all off. One of the reasons i think it turned out this big is because he is a rapper.some people have done worse and killed someone and get awy with it. But when some one like t.i. Try's to do something to protect himself it turns into a big thing.
Posted by big fan
That's not right. He shouldn't have to be on house arrest.he was set up and how does evrybody know that his body guard was involved in all of this.he should be let free because he is the best rapper alive!!11

Listen, this guy is the king of the south and always will be!!! i don't care what anybody does to him, ti is the best and everyone should agree. Even though i think that the charges are stupid i believe that there're only giving him extra time because of who he is. He might be away for awhile but like he said in his new video "no matter what" ti is still going to stand and shine, no matter what yall try to do to him!!!
