T.I.’s Legal Team In Serious Motion

Wednesday, November 21, 2007
By: Michael Ivey


T.I.Multi-platinum artist T.I. and his lawyers want the judge in the Atlanta native’s federal weapons case to dismiss physical evidence and statments against him on the grounds that they were gathered illegally. The emcee’s attorney’s Monday in U.S. District Court filed motions to stop a jury from hearing evidence seized from T.I.’s car, and statements he made to federal
agents, when he was October 13 arrested for allegedly attempting to purchase guns and silencers from an undercover agent in a parking lot during a sting operation. T.I.’s defence team claims that arresting officers had no warrant to search their clients’ vehicle, that he may have spoken involuntarily and been detained improperly.

T.I., a convicted felon who has grown into a successful artist and entrepreneur, is on house arrest awaiting trial; he faces a maximum sentence of ten years in prison and a $250,000 fine on each weapons charge. His lawyers say more details about the motions will come later; the judge in the case will reportedly respond to the filings in court. A pretrail conference was scheduled November 21.

T.I. and The Grand Hustle K.I.N.G. Foundation November 22 host a Thanksgiving feast for the less fortunate from 6-9 pm at Club Crucial in Atlanta. In addition the crew will donate four hundred turkeys to four hundred families in need via the Atlanta Parks & Recreation Center.

While he faces a maximum sentence of ten years in prison what about that white boy's mom that purchased all of them guns for her child (more guns then what t.i. Had, let me remind you) if you have watched cnn about that case. How is it kind of ok when she does it but when t.i. Buy's them for his saftey and people who just don't like how he makes the money that he does and just last year he would of or could have been the one killed last year instead of his long time friend and manager killed dead while driving from a show that he just did out in cleveland

J sago ^^ stay in school homie. T.i. F*cked up big time and even he knows it. Hes on house arrest kicking himself in the ass. I'm sure now he realizes that "the man" was watching him. How many times do we point out that there is a "hip-hop" police. I mean you not that special homie. The governmnet got us all under surveillance. Just keep doing positive things t.i.

Okay, so.....what are you all really talkin about..... T.i. The "king"... Yea, the dude is one hell of an artist, big ups to his skills, but how stupid do you have to be to try and pick up automatic weopons and silencers.... Silencers! are you sure this is for protection, c sileause from my knowledge silencers and fully automatic weopons were used for silent operations room clearing, and highly illegal....... Why wouldnt you think there was gonna be some kinda of eyes on you during this purchase.

Cranberry sauce, my n.i.g.g.a, thats the key. 1 cup (200 g) sugar 1 cup (255 ml) water 4 cups (1 12-oz package) fresh or frozen cranberries optional pecans, orange peel, raisins, currants, blueberries, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice. Thats how we lay that sh*t in my hood.

The reason why they had bought silencers with the automatic weapons was to prevent people to get alarmed by the gun shots (if had a mishap happend). Who would want to get caught if somebody shot at them first?
Posted by J SAGO
^^true ... And good point about the cranberry sauce.

To the first guys comment..yeah the white mom may have done more stuff wrong..but dude is a convicted felon..if you get caught with 1 gun..your F*cked!!!!...he got caught with too many

Damn blood, t.i. Got off light, he might get 10 years and a couple fines my homie in dc is facing 20 to life for almost the same thing; throw in a couple hot ones on the burner
Posted by piro
I wonder how the cop covered up the bacon smell? dude'll prolly get the 10 years max, do like 2 maybe 3, then get off. Thats if he even chooses to do some time, cuz im sure lil b*tch @ss could buy his way out of it. But if he is a convicted felon from before that though, then sh*t, see you in 10 years tip.
