found two revolvers in his SUV. At the time he was on parole for aggravated
robbery.
Pat was tried once on these charges in January

an all white jury, you tell me!" Paul told AllHipHop.com. Pat is facing
up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 dollar fine when he is sentenced June

prosecutor was jealous of his brothers success. Project Pat is ready to release
