Snoop pleads innocent to deadly weapon charges

Snoop Dogg has formally pleaded not guilty your honour in relation to those previously reported charges he received after being found with a collapsible baton in his baggage while boarding a plane at John Wayne Airport in Orange County. Police charged him with possessing a deadly weapon, though Snoop claims it was an innocent prop. The rapper wasn't in court himself to deliver his plea, with his lawyers doing the duties at the Santa Ana court house earlier this week. Snoop's legal people also requested that the trial in regards to the baton matter move forward as quickly as possible. Presumably so they can concentrate their efforts on the other two sets of charges Snoop received last Autumn, both relating to him having drugs and guns in his car.
