He says they told him they smelled weed, which he says was an excuse to search his car. Beezy says he doesn’t smoke and cops didn’t find any marijuana and didn’t charge him for possession.
As for the gun they found … Beezy’s team says his entire arsenal is registered.
The manager says he’s currently trying to bail Beezy out. The manager says this is a case of harassment by cops.
