Flava Flav Dodges Jail Time, Take Plea Deal

Flava Flav Plea Deal

The Case Of A Knife Attack On ‘Step-Son’…

Flava Flav has just saved his azz *no pun intended* from doing a bid that could have added up to 12-years in the Penn!

Flav caught the case back in 2012, after being accused of threatening his longtime girlfriend’s teen son with a butcher knife. Just yesterday [April 14, 2014], in a Las Vegas courtroom, Flav accepted a plea deal that allowed him to avoid trial. “I love my son and my son loves me, too,” he told the judge.

Flav’s guilty plea landed him to be sentenced to probation and counselling. This, after being charged with felony assault and child endangerment with a weapon. He was sentenced to probation and counseling. Outside court, the Flav pulled his trademark clock neckwear from beneath a red T-shirt, as he and his defense attorneys said they don’t expect the Las Vegas conviction to affect a pending felony speeding and driving without a license case in Mineola, N.Y.

The Associated Press reports:

“Flavor Flav pleaded guilty Monday to reduced charges and was sentenced to probation and more counseling in a Las Vegas domestic violence case involving the teenage son of his longtime girlfriend.

The 55-year-old rapper and reality TV personality, whose legal name is William Jonathan Drayton Jr., acknowledged in court that he wielded a kitchen knife during an Oct. 17, 2012, argument at home in Las Vegas.

The teen testified during a preliminary hearing a year ago that Drayton threatened to kill him, chased him to a bedroom and stabbed the knife through the door during the argument.

The family has since reconciled and has been undergoing counseling, defense attorney Kristina Wildeveld told Senior Clark County District Court Judge Kathy Hardcastle on Monday.

The teen, now 18, and his mother were not in court when Drayton entered his plea to misdemeanor charges of attempted battery that could have caused substantial injury and battery constituting domestic violence.”

  1. Glad to learn they got it worked out without prison time.

    And I know it sounds horrible, but I wish they would bring back “Flavor of Love”! LOL

      FLAV WAS SMOKING ON MOST OF THE SCENES HE WAS IN YOU CAN TELL HE WAS HITTING THE PIPE HARD.

      WOW

      REMEMBER IN THE NIGHT OF THE LIVING BASSHEADS VIDEO HE WAS HIGH ON CRACK HE WANTED TO SMOKE CRACK IN THE VIDEO BUT PE WOULD’NT LET HIM SO THEY HIRED REAL CRACKHEADS TO SMOKE CRACK IN THE VIDEO.

      • (hangs head in shame…..)

        I know, Chris, I know…..I am ashamed of my own self….that show was like a train wreck that I couldn’t avert my gaze from.

        And I could smell the crack smoke through my TV screen.

        And, yes, I do remember that video….man, Chuck D. was a saint to put up with Flav.

    • Im waiting for the day that I can buy Flavor of Love totally uncensored. Because we all know what they did with Flav on camera!

      • so you wanna see a crackhead ha ve sex with a bunch ghettogirls.

        you might as well sell drugs to a bunch of crack addicted females and getting pleasured yourself.

        • I didn’t make millions from this show or volunteer to be on it. It was on in high school and I got a kick out of adults being ridiculous. Knowing what I know now about that show OF COURSE I want to seeit again!

  2. He’s got some nerve wearing that ring. Not the way he’s been living his life. False representation.

  3. Flav needs to wake up! All that drinking and drugging got him looking like a cross between a and a bumblebee. Sidenote: Does anybody know if,Flav’s girlfriend Liz Trujillo delivered their second baby? I remember she found out she was pregnant when they did Couples Therapy. She was bat ish crazy on that show. It didn’t look like they were going to make it. (Flav and Liz as a couple nor Liz carrying the baby to term.)

    • Yeah that relationship was like watching a train wreck. Reminds me of amy winehouse and pete doherty’s fling. Im thinking to myself “they probably fight over shifts washing the crack stem or argue over the last swallow of the Steel Reserve.” And a thousand lashes of the whip and hail marys for this buffoon desecrating the star & crescent

    • I am dying to know that. I was surprised to see they are still together. Lil was also high but you got to get high to stay with flav thru flavor of love .

  4. That pentagram ring represents what he into quite nicely I say. It’s not a Star of David which is six points.

  5. Despite all the good vibes Flav enjoyed with Public Enemy, none of that can heal the hate within. Brothaman does not love himself. Oftentimes, we wear a mask over the ugly inside. One less brotha in the cage(jail), that’s good. He 55, the games gotta cease at some point.
