MempHitz Faces Judge: Admits Gun Was “Accident” & Apologizes to Fans…

Aug, 24 2011 | Written by ATLien
Mickey “MempHitz” Wright faced a Clayton County judge yesterday evening on charges that he carried a loaded pistol into Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson airport. [mugshot]

Wright, who is licensed to carry a gun, was arrested Monday morning when TSA agents found a pistol in his carry-on luggage and spent the night in jail prior to his appearance in court.

Charged with the misdemeanor offense of carrying a weapon in an unauthorized location, Wright was unnecessarily cuffed and shackeld as he was escorted into court wearing an orange jail jumpsuit.

His wife Toya sat quietly in the back of the courtroom in support of her new husband.

MempHitz was carrying a 40-caliber Desert Eagle firearm in his carry-on luggage and says it was all just a big mistake.

He apologetically addressed Clayton County Magistrate Court Judge Daphne Walker, stating:

I just wanted to say to you that I would never intentionally take a firearm to the airport.

I just forgot that it was in my backpack.

Walker reminded MempHitz that although he has a license to carry, “you do have to be careful when you go to the airport to be sure you remove it.” She then granted him a $5,000 bond.

MempHitz has since been released from jail and hit up twitter thanking his supporters and apologizing to his family & fans.

It was a mistake anyone could have made… or is it??

  That’s what everybody says. Including the everyday people. It seems like a few months ago a white older female did the same thing & got the same punishment. Now he needs to pack his own bags from now on.

  I am sure that Black Man didn’t mean to take a Gun to the Airport, knowing what would happen to him.

  When carrying a firearm, you have to be thorough. This means knowing where you “piece” is at all times. This “mistake” is irresponsible and irresponsible people shouldn’t carry guns.

  Toya looks hotter (upset) than fish grease. I’m sure she let him sit for a while and then gave him a tongue lashing. If he didn’t have a Valid license to carry a fire arm this could have turned into something worse.

- Virginia Nobullshyt Perry via Facebook
  
  YES I BELIEVE CAUSE I HIDE THINGS IN PURSES I’M NOT USING AT THE TIME I HOPE HE CHECKS HIS BAGS NEXT TIME
- Adusade
  
  @Cathey, I’m a fan. It’s great to see a couple who are family-oriented, seem to want the best for their loved ones, and seem devoted to each other. It’s refreshing and I watch their show each week. My head isn’t up their behinds like some people can be, but I do admire what they’re bringing to their show, so I’d call myself a fan.
  
  I can totally believe they put him in shackles, because this is the united states of f’ing america. Of COURSE they’re gonna put you in shackles! And those shackles are on your asses all of the damn time. This young and dumb generation just doesn’t realize they’re there.
- Raina
  
  That man is the VP of A&R at Jive Records from what I’ve read. He supposedly put T-Pain and K-Michelle on. He is a business man. He made the most of his internship at Arista, far from a “low iq goon”. Unfortunately entertainers have to give the people what they want, so now we don’t get to see black men look “the part”. Google a nigga before you dog him out, ijs. Oh and I love your blog ATLien.

  This Is Clear That As Nice As Memphitz Is’ He Has A Very Careless & Dangerous Problem Of Forgetting A Weapon That Can Kill & Destroy, What If A Child Had Found It’ Or The Bag Dropped And Went Off During The Flight….Accidental Discharges Are Easy When Safety Is Off…..He Should Not Have A Weapon’

  I wonder will they let him off..

  I really think it was a mistake.. since he has a permit to carry.. Who would carry a weapon to the airport like that? They travel too much for that..
