NBA YoungBoy\u2018s claim about being depressed after being confined to house arrest has been called into question by prosecutors.<\/p>\n

According to court documents obtained by HipHopDX<\/em>, which were filed on Monday (November 27), William K. Morris \u2014 the attorney working on behalf of the United States of America \u2014 has questioned why the Baton Rouge native can\u2019t get mental health treatment simply because he\u2019s on house arrest. \u201cThe United States fails to see how the defendant\u2019s current conditions of pre-trial release prohibit him from seeking and obtaining mental health treatment,\u201d reads the motion in opposition to the request.<\/p>\n

Morris\u2019 motion makes it clear that it\u2019s not the government\u2019s job to provide mental health services on demand \u2014 and that even if said services were provided, NBA YoungBoy has no restrictions in getting them from the comfort of his own home. \u201cWhile the defendant categorizes his request as \u2018narrowly tailored\u2019,\u2026this question remains unresolved. Is he seeking the help of a mental health professional outside of the State of Utah? Is he seeking the help of a mental health professional outside of the United States? Are there not modern-world, widely available virtual options for him to seek help from a mental health professional of his choosing?\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

NBA YoungBoy\u2019s claim house arrest has led to “depression” challenged by prosecutors https:\/\/t.co\/3Yh0bOWpT2<\/a>pic.twitter.com\/vOKEmgG31G<\/a><\/p>\n

Morris\u2019s motion was filed in opposition to one filed by NBA YoungBoy earlier this month, in which he requested an amendment to his house arrest rules. YoungBoy\u2019s attorney claimed that the circumstances of the rapp<\/a>er\u2019s house arrest have \u201cled to great anxiety, depression, loss of weight and sleep.\u201d In addition, he said that they\u2019re only in effect due to evidence provided by police officers who are now under investigation themselves \u2014 and this central claim remained unaddressed by the United States in their motion of opposition.<\/p>\n

According to court documents obtained by HipHopDX<\/em>, the rapper (real name Kentrell DeSean Gaulden) wasn\u2019t aware that the police who arrested him back in September of 2020 were also under investigation \u2014 and subsequently arrested \u2014 for a myriad of corruption charges.<\/p>\n

As a result of the four officers being under arrest themselves, NBA YoungBoy submitted a memorandum of law in support of his amended release on Wednesday (November 1), saying that doing so would be a question of honoring his human rights.<\/p>\n

\u201c18 U.S.C. \u00a7 3142(f), allows for the detention hearing to be reopened at any time before trial if the judicial officer finds that information exists that was not known to the movant at the time of the hearing and that has a material bearing on the issue of whether there are conditions of release that will reasonably assure the appearance of the person as required and the safety of any other person and the community,\u201d reads the memorandum.<\/p>\n

It continues: \u201cOut of an abundance of caution, Mr. Gaulden shows that there is new information that exists that was not known to the movant at the time of the hearing and that has a material bearing on the conditions of his release.<\/p>\n

\u201cMore specifically, four BRPD Street Crimes Unit officers, all of whom were involved in the September 28, 2020, round-up and arrest of Mr. Gaulden and nearly 20 other individuals, have now been arrested as a direct result of their misconduct in relation to this very investigation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Baton Rouge native goes on to say that the sales of his album have been suffering due to his inability to travel<\/a> at will, and that he doesn\u2019t want to \u201cburden this Honorable Court with each employment-related request but needs the ability to request such activities in order to maintain his employment as ordered.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
