Big Boi’s Lawyer Issues Statement

Rep says rapper will be exonerated.

Big Boi may be in hot water after his weekend arrest, but his lawyer Daniel Kane isn’t sweating the charges. According to HipHopDX, Kane released a statement today:
“While Big Boi was traveling with his group and friends, a small amount of contraband was found in the collective luggage,” said a statement from Kane. “I am confident when the entire facts are aired Big Boi will be completely exonerated."
As previously reported, Big Boi was busted in Miami Sunday [August 7] for possession of ecstasy, MDMA powder and Viagara pills.
The rapper, whose real name is Antwan Patton, was caught by customs and border control patrol dogs as he was leaving a cruise ship. The 36-year-old rapper has been charged with one count of drug possession and three counts of possession of a controlled substance.
