Welcome to Arrest Stories. Memphis rapper Finesse2tymes finds himself behind bars again after a routine traffic stop in Texas escalated into eight criminal charges including drug possession and evidence tampering. Here's what may have happened.
On October twentieth, twenty twenty-five, the thirty-three-year-old artist was cruising through Harris County, Texas in a red Corvette when officers pulled him over for a simple seatbelt violation. What started as a routine traffic stop quickly intensified when police reported detecting the distinctive smell of marijuana emanating from the vehicle.
Officers spotted a hand-rolled blunt sitting in the ashtray, providing probable cause for a comprehensive vehicle search. The investigation uncovered zero point seven ounces of marijuana, twelve oxycodone pills, and seven methylphenidate pills scattered throughout the car. Police reports indicate substances from several penalty groups were discovered, potentially including materials ranging from hallucinogens to controlled narcotics.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office arrested Finesse2tymes on eight separate charges, including possession of marijuana, possession of controlled substances, tampering with evidence, and bringing prohibited items into a correctional facility. Officials later confirmed additional violations occurred while the rapper was in custody.
This arrest continues a troubling pattern for the artist, who faced similar circumstances just one month earlier in September during another seatbelt-related traffic stop by Smith County police. His legal troubles extend beyond traffic violations, with January twenty twenty-five charges involving alleged terroristic threats against a woman during an argument about a young boy named King, though those charges were ultimately dismissed due to insufficient evidence.
The Harris County Public Information Officer confirmed his release, stating "he's no longer being detained in the Harris County Jail facility as of Tuesday," referring to October twenty-first.
Despite his mounting legal challenges, Finesse2tymes recently opened up about his personal struggles as a single parent while seeking custody of his daughter following her mother's death.
