TI was supposed to be in court yesterday, January 3rd, for a suppression hearing, but now he’ll have to wait until February 19th for his lawyers to argue that the evidence obtained during his October 13th arrest was illegal because it was done so without a warrant, probable cause, or consent. The understanding is that if his lawyers are able to get the evidence thrown out, the government will lose a substantial chunk of their case against him.

On October 14th, CNN reported,

“The entertainer, whose real name is Clifford Harris, was arrested in a federal sting Saturday after his bodyguard-turned-informant delivered three machine guns and two silencers to the hip-hop star, according to a Justice Department statement.”

TMZ.com also reported,

“The ATF executed a search warrant at his home, and according to Atlanta’s FOX 5 News, T.I., remains in custody. The agencies at the scene of the federal search warrant include: The ATF, U.S. Marshals: Fugitive Task Force, Fulton County SWAT, Fulton County PD, Dekalb County PD, and the ATF/Atlanta PD Violent Crime Impact Team.”

To me, and I’m not trying to play lawyer here, or argue that the press always has these things right (TMZ.com’s reliability is most certainly in question), it seems clear as day in those reports. It’s written that there was a federal search warrant issued, and the warrant is available online, so how could it not exist? Maybe the argument by his legal team is that the original arrest of his bodyguard was without probable cause or search warrant. I don’t know. This one looks tricky, but so did R Kelly’s case, and you see how that whole drama has played out.

TI remains on house arrest.
