Jadakiss is home free!


Well prosecutors are dropping a drug-and-gun case against Jadakiss, a.k.a. Jason Phillips. It's been a year after the rapper's initial arrest.

The Westchester County district attorney's office asked a judge last week to dismiss the charges against Jadakiss, and a co-defendant, Kristian Smith.

Phillips, Smith and Darnell Frazier were arrested last October in Yonkers, the rapper's hometown, and indicted in February. Police claimed they smelled marijuana coming from the men's car and then found a gun inside.

A jury last month acquitted Frazier after DNA tests didn't link any of the three to the gun.
Jadakiss' attorney, Clement Patti said it was "a travesty that the case went this far." She also claimed that the 32-year-old rapper "has had this cloud over his head for a year, affecting his career." (that i don't agree with...shoooot controversy seems to spark many careers in the rap or entertainment industry in general. This shoulda make JadaK a bigger star!)
