Jason Mitchell appears to be this generation’s “Can’t Get Right.”
The former star of “The Chi” was reportedly arrested in Mississippi and booked into Harrison County Jail on Wednesday after he was popped with guns and drugs.
According to TMZ, Jason was arrested for two guns, including a Glock 19 pistol and a mini Draco AK47 semi-automatic pistol.
The 33-year-old actor is facing two felony charges for possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute, plus two more felony charges for possession of a weapon by a felon.
A rep for Jason Mitchell blew off the charges as some type of misunderstanding and told people to focus on the Coronavirus pandemic.
Jason is at home with his family right now, working on an amazing new project. News stories move fast and oftentimes without all of the facts. This misunderstanding will be resolved shortly. We trust that the court systems blind justice will protect Jason’s rights and allow him to tell his story.
During the Pandemic it’s best we focus on the importance of our Nation growing back to our full capacity.
I just have one question: Why wasn’t he at home quarantining?
