Lil Wayne's assistant testifies over tour bus gun search

Lil Wayne's assistant Terry Bourgeois testified that he had seen a handgun and marijuana on the rapper's tour bus, but never Wayne holding a gun.

Lil Wayne's assistant has testified in that previously reported criminal case against the rapper relating to a police search of his tour bus back in July 2007. As previously reported, a police officer claims that when she boarded Wayne's bus having smelled marijuana, she discovered the hip hopper trying to hide a gun. Wayne's lawyer is trying to have the gun charges against the rapper dismissed, mainly by arguing that there was no marijuana smell and that the police therefore boarded the bus on false pretences.

Anyway, Wayne's assistant Terry Bourgeois was this week asked under oath whether he had seen dope smoking or guns on the rapper's tour bus. He responded by saying he had, on occasion, seen a handgun and people smoking marijuana on the bus. However, he added that he's never actually seen his boss with a gun, and that he didn't know whether there had been a gun on the bus on the day it was police searched.
