The evidence later showed it was really Molly.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ohsodj.com\/2014\/01\/15\/justin-bieber-raided-over-egg-gate\/\">Now, I pointed this little blunder out when the story broke<\/a>. I&#8217;m no drug expert, but I didn&#8217;t think a Molly and cocaine had similar appearances. \u00a0I definitely think that reference to cocaine was made out of malice by police. \u00a0Still I&#8217;m not sure Lil Za&#8217;s problems is his race. I think it has more to do with the company he&#8217;s keeping.<\/p>\n<p>For some reason people are simply outraged by the Biebs &#8211; something I totally don&#8217;t get. For as long as we&#8217;ve heard this kid&#8217;s name, can you believe he&#8217;s still just 19? When you take that in and consider he&#8217;s lived a good portion of this life in the spotlight something like an egg incident seems so ridiculous. Seriously, just take the kid to court and be done with it. But a search warrant and raid??? Does that not seem over the top?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m still not even sure who Lil Za is, but I suggest he take his &#8220;fall&#8221; check and get out of dodge. He&#8217;s just a casualty in the Biebs war. \u00a0Society is ready to make an example out of him.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>After being arrested for felony drug possession Tuesday (Jan. 14) and again yesterday (Jan. 15), Lil Za pulls the race card and hints that it&#8217;s the primary cause for being apprehended.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[642,740],"class_list":["post-2858","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-justin-bieber","tag-lil-za"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7qLKy-K6","jetpack_featured_media_url":"","post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2858","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2858"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2858\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2858"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2858"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2858"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
