Nelly Responds to Tour Bus Arrest: “I’m MAD As Hell About This S&*t”
After having his tour bus pulled over (they found heroine, weed and a loaded goan) and being detained by Texas police, Nelly has spoken out. In short, Cornell Iral Haynes, Jr (yes, that's his govt name) blames Brian Keith Jones (a member of his staff and close friend). His official statement reads:
It is my understanding a member of my staff made an unfortunate decision to bring unlawful materials onto our tour bus that resulted in his arrest this morning, October 11th. Neither I nor anyone else on the tour bus was aware of his decision to bring these on board. Law enforcement officials in Sierra Blanca, Texas did not press charges against anyone other than that individual.
He also released a lessed polished version of frustration on twitter:

That being said he was not only an employee but he was fam some1 who protected my life 4many years!No excuses for wad he did!!!! My heart goes out to his fam and is kids!!!!
