On May 15, Kodak Black was granted release on $550,00 bond with house arrest following his arrest on May 11 in Miami on weapons charges. Today, a federal judge revoked that bond and determined that the rapper will remain detained until trial, the Associated Press reports.
“I’m very concerned with the type of guns he wanted to get a hold of … and that he has a prior [criminal history],” Judge Federico Moreno said (via The Miami Herald). In November 2016, Kodak Black was arrested on criminal sexual conduct charges for the alleged sexual assault of a woman in South Carolina. He was indicted on charges of first degree sexual assault, but has been out on bond since December 2016.
“He was out on bond [from the South Carolina case], and he committed an offense,” Moreno said. “I think he’s a danger to the community because he wants to have access to guns.”
