A Judge cleared Philly
rapper Beanie Sigel to attend a drug counseling at an undisclosed treatment facility
in Minnesota.
U.S. District Judge
R. Barclay Surrick ordered Sigel to post a $1,000,000 federal bond, $150,000
in cash, a $400,000 house and four other properties.
Upon successful
completion of the drug/anger management program, a judge will determine whether
he will remain free on bail.
If freed, Sigel
would be released to the custody of his mother and manager, Michelle Brown.
Surrick ordered Brown to attend the treatment facility with her son.
Sigel has been
in federal custody since July 14. He is fighting a drug and gun case, an assault
case and an attempted murder charge.
Surrick had ordered
Sigel released to the treatment facility last week, but the order was released
due to testimony by Sigel’s alleged victim. Terrance Speller.
Speller and his
girlfriend testified they received daily threats in regard to the attempted
murder case.
Assistant Philadelphia
District Attorney Deborah Robinson said she had no plans to appeal the decision.
