KEEP YOUR MONEY, JA Ja Rule, the least famous rapper arrested for illegal gun possession in New York City on July 22, 2007, posted bail for his two co-defendants when it all went down last summer. But now a judge is saying that the co-defendants need to be responsible for their own bail. For some crazy reason, the judge thinks that if the co-defendants are beholden to Ja Rule in any way, he "might control the outcome of the case." That judge is totally paranoid. Nothing like that ever happens in real life. [AHH]

It's interesting to me that the judge is concerned about where the bail money comes from and not that all three men are represented by the same attorney. Is she going to make the attorney allocate the fees for each client and make sure Ja doesn't pay them as well? If not, it seems like there is more control by the person who pays the one attorney than by the person who is the bail.
