Playboi Carti was reportedly arrested on Thursday (April 2) in Clayton County, Georgia. According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, authorities pulled over his Lamborghini for expired tags and apparently searched the vehicle.
Inside the car, they discovered 12 bags of marijuana, xanax, codeine, oxycodone and three unspecified firearms. Carti and another man named Jaylon Tucker were arrested and taken to Clayton County jail.
It appears Carti bailed out on Friday (April 3) as his real name, Jordan Carter, isn’t listed in Clayton County’s online booking records.
This isn’t Carti’s first run-in with the law. In January 2019, he was ordered to pay a fine after being convicted of assaulting a tour bus driver in Scotland.
While at a Scottish service station, the driver encountered a heating issue and couldn’t get the vehicle to start again. Although a replacement tour bus was secured, Carti wasn’t pleased. He allegedly punched the German driver and smashed the tour bus window.
Playboi Carti Convicted For Assaulting Tour Bus Driver In Scotland
One of the drivers of the replacement bus testified, “I saw things being thrown around the tour bus and then a man ran across and punched the driver on the face, cutting him and knocking his glasses off. It was the accused Carter who had been standing with a group but as two guys tried to restrain him he wriggled past them ran across and punched the driver who stumbled back. The driver did not do anything to him and did not retaliate.”
In 2017, Carti was also arrested on domestic abuse charges, however that case never went to court. As for his most recent arrest, he has yet to say anything publicly.
Whole lotta dumb shyt
Damn junkie
Sounds like an jerk from the priors…and this new case is stupid too…but is having expired tags justification for the police to search the vehicle? Might get thrown out.
It won’t get thrown out lol. I’m sure it reeked of Marijuana smoke, and I believe that would at minimum be grounds to conduct DUI tests of some sort… I don’t think the smell of MJ alone constitutes as probable cause to search a vehicle, but in the majority of cases, a judge will consider that to be enough… It’s a tiny bit of a violation of our rights, but I’m sure they had a concrete justification, and obviously whatever the probable cause was, was correct, considering they found drugs and firearms (idk if it said if the guns were illegal or not… If legal, then idk why they’d mention them)
In Goergia? YES, the smell of weed is probable cause. Shit still ain’t legal down here bruh
I don’t think so though. I believe the smell of Marijuana is not technically probable cause, as the smell can be subjective, and a literal skunk can smell that way… I could be wrong though.
Smh you must live in Montana haha it’s probable cause smh stay safe in the suburbs kid
Who???
Maybe they could smell all the weed he had in there. It says there were 12 bags, after all.
Stupid junkie driving around with all that shit in the car…WAKE THE FUCK UP JUNKIE.
I guess we all know what his nex and second songs gonna be all boasting about
Another couple of black dudes who are gonna end up in and out of prison their whole lives, and possibly for life if they continue that lifestyle… What idiots. First off, don’t drive around with a bunch of drugs. Second, get legal firearms. Illegal firearms can lead to some serious charges. I’m pro gun, so I don’t hate them for having them illegally, but it just leads to so much shit with the law. Get armed legally!
This involves thinking/planning/abiding by the laws of the land. I mean, I don’t expect any of these things from (most) rappers lol.
Damn rappers already losing they minds lol
That wasn’t the case, before Corona? Lmao!
Don’t worry his label jooish lawyer will fake a positive covid-19 test and this black thug will be free to roam the streets again
If he is from anywhere in Atlanta he knew better than to be riding dirty in Clay Co. Some of those cops are the worst. SMH.
Nigga how u gone have a Lamborghini with expired tags lol
This is kind of messed up; the media trying to paint it out to be bigger then it is.
I get the gun charges but everywhere the media is saying “ they discovered 12 bags of marijuana, xanax, codeine, oxycodone”
There is literally 11 bags of marijuana in the picture. Each one is an eighth. That is less than 1.5 ounces of weed plus one small bottle of codeine plus three to five pills.
They make it seem like he was pushing major weight but that was dudes personal stash.
If that’s true about the weed you make a very good point. But like it or not, pills and codeine are illegal without prescription no matter the amount
