Rapper Blac Youngsta’s gun lawsuit was dropped this week by a Dallas court, allowing him to finally move past a persistent legal issue.

Blac Youngsta’s attorney, Carl A. Moore, expressed his client’s relief, stating that Youngsta is pleased to have resolved the matter after nearly four years. Moore commended the District Attorney’s Office for dropping the charge, emphasizing that justice had been served.
The arrest occurred in October 2020 during a routine traffic stop. Blac Youngsta was riding as a passenger when police officers reportedly found a handgun tucked between his legs. Despite the serious nature of the charge, Youngsta was cooperative with the officers at the scene, as seen in video footage obtained by TMZ.
This incident was Youngsta’s second gun-related arrest in as many years. In September 2019, he was involved in another legal issue when police claimed that he admitted to owning a bag containing two semi-automatic pistols and prohibited ammunition found in his car.
Blac Youngsta turned down a pre-trial diversion program before prosecutors eventually decided to drop the case, allowing him to move forward without further legal complications.
