Comedic actor Katt Williams
caught a big break in the felony child endangerment case he was facing
since December last year. He will no longer face criminal charges for
marijuana and numerous guns which cops found in his house in Woodland
Hills, California that he shared with his kids.
Williams, who said he didn't think pot was an illegal drug, will need
only to appear at an informal hearing at the Los Angeles City Attorney's
office where he will only be given a warning and will be counseled. The
L.A. city attorney, who handles misdemeanors, found the case with
gaping loopholes and decided not to file the case referred by the
district attorney.
The district attorney who first handled the case and referred it after
deciding not to file felony charges against Williams said the case
didn't hold enough ground to be filed based on a couple of points.
Williams insisted that the guns were locked safely away from the reach
of his kids and that there were so many people living in his California
home that there was no clear indication that the marijuana was his.
Williams was released after being held on $100,000 bail and spending a
day in Valley Jail in Van Nuys. Although prosecutors did not find enough
evidence to pin Williams behind bars, his four kids have been placed in
protective custody.
