Public Enemy and reality TV’s Flavor Flav will stand trial on two felony charges.
USAToday.com reports that a Las Vegas, Nevada judge found that there was enough evidence that the legendary hype-man threatened his girlfriend’s 17-year-old son with a butcher knife for Flav to stand trial.
An arraignment is scheduled for April 18 on felony charges of assault with a weapon and child endangerment.
The report indicates that Flav is expected to plead no guilty.
If convicted, Flavor Flav faces up to 12 years in prison.
Flav reportedly got into an argument with his fiancee and her son in his home. He was later released on $23,000 bail.
(April 10)
UPDATE: Billboard.com reports that Flavor Flav’s trial dates have been set. The Public Enemy member will appear on September 30 in a Clark County District Court in Las Vegas, Nevada. Yesterday (May 7), Flav entered a not-guilty plea. This came after a Nevada State Court judge ruled that there was not enough information to go to trial.

If Chuck D is two steps forward, Flavor is three steps back. I say that with the utmost respect to the Public Enemy name. Flav may be the greatest hypeman of all time, but Chris D’s message is tarnished by this man’s actions (actions > words). Grow up Flav.
Chris?
Don’t sweat it, you know I’m talkin’ about Chuck. Simple mistake. Good catch though.
fucking crack head

Seriously, what father HASN’T threatened his daughter’s boyfriend with a butcher knife?
This trial should be thrown out!
Flav will get a year locked-up and some parole after that. Say what’s up to OJ
Public Enemy still the shit!!!!
Wow. If you watch “Celebrity Wife Swap” you can see this 17 yr old in the show. He’s a very mature, respectful young man. Flav is the psycho child-man! I hope he goes to jail for the max. What a scum bag! (In the show Flav ignores the teen and clearly treats him like he doesn’t belong) I wish the best for the teen, and am glad his mom finally showed some backbone and stood up for him.
