Comedian Kat Williams had gun charges against him last fall, but they have been dropped.
AP: A spokeswoman for the district attorney said prosecutors moved Thursday to have the case dismissed because they “can’t prove the charges beyond a reasonable doubt.” Defense lawyer Charles Ross said prosecutors learned the guns were legally registered in other states to two men who were with Williams. Ross said he was “pleased that the DA’s office did the right thing.”
Kat Williams is in the clear as far as these charges are concerned, but his security guards still face gun charges.
A probe found the weapons were registered out-of-state to two of Williams’ security guards, sources said. The guards still face charges, but weapons possession charges against Williams were dropped.
