Just when we were expecting Bone Thugs and Harmony to hit the world with their brand of Hip-Hop after a successful reunion, one of them has been arrested for a past offence. Flesh-n-Bone, whose real name is Stanley Howse, was arrested by law men in Cleveland, Ohio. He was picked up on a 12-year-old charge that he hit his mother with a gun in 1998, leaving her with a gash on the head. According to RV's sources, officers nicked Flesh-n-Bone as he tried to slip out of BTNH's Reunion show in Cleveland [ The Free Flowing group hail from Cleveland, Ohio ] .
Flesh, who is the older brother of Layzie Bone, was the first member of the group to release a solo album titled T.H.U.G.S in 1996. He was locked up in Pleasant Valley State Prison for 11 years on charges of assault with a dangerous weapon and violating probation. He was let out of jail last summer after serving ten years of his sentence. He became a Muslim while in jail. 36 year old Flesh-n-Bone will probably be reciting the lyrics of his touching song '' World So Cruel ''to himself at this moment. RV sincerely hopes that Flesh's current problems with the Police will not harm Bone Thugs and Harmony's renaissance. The group is set to release their newest album '' Uni5: The World's Enemy '' on April 27th.

a 12 year old charge? blimey that a long one and 11 years for hitting someone with a gun this guy should live in the UK
ReplyDelete@Dami, That is American law for you. The American Police have a way of settling scores with serial offenders. I still don't understand why Black guys are prone to getting themselves into trouble with the law. Yeah, Flesh would have gotten off lightly in the UK. Thanks for visiting my blog. I hope you'll keep coming back. Cheers.
