A Cleveland judge admonished Yung Joc for being late to his arraignment on Wednesday afternoon. But the judge allowed the rapper to remain free on $100,000 bond pending a hearing on a felony gun charge.
Yung Joc was arrested Sunday morning and charged with carrying a concealed weapon after attempting to board a Delta airlines flight with a loaded gun in his carry-on bag. Joc has said he wasn’t aware the gun was in his bag. The concealed weapon charge carries a minimum 18-month sentence according to the prosecutor’s office.
An inside source said there was a miscommunication between Yung Joc and his Cleveland-based attorney and Joc believed he didn’t have to make a personal appearance before the judge on Wednesday morning.
Yung Joc’s next hearing is scheduled for January 25. Joc’s album “Hustlenomic$” is almost platinum.
