The Westchester County District Attorney’s office announced today that Yonkers rapper Jadakiss—born Jason Phillips—was charged with third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, a felony, and unlawful possession of marijuana, a violation.
In October, police reportedly smelled marijuana wafting from a 2006 Toyota Camry that contained Jadakiss and three other men, then recovered a “loaded, stolen .38-caliber hand gun from the vehicle.” Whoops.
Next scheduled to appear in Yonkers City Court on May 3, Jadakiss could face a maximum sentence of seven years in state prison if convicted of the gun charge.
Maybe Jada was tired of another Westchester-based rapper generating all the headlines. Either way, expect his album sales to skyrocket.
