Juvenile pleads guilty to marijuana possession
The rapper “Juvenile” pleaded guilty to marijuana possession in St. Bernard Parish and received a suspended three-month sentence and must pay a $250 fine, authorities said.
The New Orleans rapper, whose real name is Terius Gray, pleaded guilty Thursday before state District Judge Manny Fernandez to misdemeanor possession stemming from his arrest for less than an ounce of marijuana Feb. 25 at an Arabi house he was using as a recording studio. Fernandez also sentenced Gray, 34, to six months inactive probation and ordered him to pay court costs.
Music producer Leroy Edwards, 42, who was booked with misdemeanor marijuana possession along with Gray, did not appear for his scheduled trial date Thursday. A warrant was issued for Edwards’ arrest, but he came to court Friday and the warrant was withdrawn. Edwards’ trial will be Sept. 20.
