UPDATE: From KHOU…
Houston rapper Paul Wall was in court Tuesday morning to face a judge on felony drug charges.
Thirty-five-year-old Paul Michael Slayton, AKA Paul Wall, was arrested last week after a narcotics bust at a smoke shop in the heights. He’s charged with possession of a controlled substance with internet to deliver.
Fellow rapper Baby Bash is also facing charges.
On Tuesday morning, it was revealed that the charge has been changed to engaging in an organized crime with possession for intent to deliver THC.
Prosecutors say the duo organized a smoke session at the store via Instagram, and that two undercover officers paid to get in and saw large amounts of THC wax, marijuana and also pills.
From TMZ:
Paul Wall and Baby Bash found themselves in a familiar situation Friday … hooked up in cuffs after cops in Texas busted them for drugs.
Law enforcement sources in Houston tell us officers executed a search warrant early Friday morning. Wall and Bash were there and got arrested on the spot, along with 8 other people. According to court records, both have been hit with felonies.
At this time, it’s unclear what drugs were found during the raid. The rappers were also busted together in 2011 … for possession of weed in El Paso.
