TRICK DADDY - TRICK DADDY ON HOUSE ARREST UNTIL DECEMBER

A court has ordered rapper TRICK DADDY to remain under house arrest until he stands trial in December (03) on drug possession and assault and weapons charges.

Assistant state attorney STACEY GLICK accused judge DENNIS MURPHY of being too lenient with the hip-hop star, who has been allowed to attend several concerts and industry events.

Trick Daddy, real name MAURICE YOUNG, allegedly violated his probation in February (03) after he pulled a gun after a dispute over a basketball game in his native Florida.

He was arrested last month (SEP03) at a high school football game after parents complained that the rapper and another man were being rowdy and drinking in the stands.

When the I'M A THUG rapper was searched, they allegedly found cocaine and marijuana in his shirt pocket. Trick Daddy claimed the shirt wasn't his, saying it belong to his unnamed companion.

Trick Daddy's trial is set for 15 December (04).
