NBA YoungBoy’s case resumed this week and in one of the hearings, his attorneys asked the judge to release the 21-year-old rapper on bond so he can go live in Utah, where they want a recording studio built for him as well as security of former military personnel put on the ground, according to The Advocate. The judge is yet to issue a ruling on the Monday (October 18) hearing.
Previously, Chief U.S. District Judge Shelly Dick had rejected a motion to release Youngboy, describing him as “inclined toward reckless, illegal, dangerous behavior” and couldn’t be granted bond even on certain conditions.
