Update: Julia Fox Pays Brother’s $450K Bail Following His Arrest On Gun Possession & Manufacturing Charges
Update: (Mar. 14, 2023): Julia Fox, 33, is doing what she can to be there for her brother amid his serious legal troubles.
According to reports, the ex-girlfriend of Kanye West bailed her younger brother, Christopher Fox, out of jail after he was arrested on gun possession and manufacturing charges in New York City. You may recall that last week Julia’s brother and dad, Thomas Fox, 65, were taken into police custody following a raid on a New York City apartment where police reportedly found guns without tracers, 3D printers (assumed to be used to make guns without traceable serial numbers), chemicals often included in bomb-making, and drugs.
It’s important to note that despite initially being arrested, Julia’s father has not been charged for anything and it appears the apartment that was raided belongs to Christopher.
On Monday (Mar. 13) The “Uncut Gems” actress and her parents reportedly co-signed the $450,000 bond to get her 30-year-old brother released from jail.
the celebrity bail bondsman who posted Christopher’s bond said,
“Of course Ms. Fox seemed upset, it is her brother.
Christopher Fox is scheduled to appear back in court on May 4.
Original story: (Mar. 9, 2023): Actress Julia Fox’s relatives have run into trouble with the law.
According to reports, an NYPD raid resulted in the detainment of her father Christopher Fox and brother Thomas Fox, after police found a number of felony offenses in the home.
Reports state that the 30-year-old and 65-year-old father-son duo were being watched as part of a bigger investigation into ghost guns. It’s reported that a tip from a neighbor suspicious of the continued online deliveries led authorities to the New York apartment. After the raid, police reportedly did indeed find guns without tracers as well as 3D printers (assumed to be used to make guns without traceable serial numbers).
Additionally, chemicals often included in bomb-making and other drugs were reportedly found. Authorities reportedly confiscated heroin, chloroform, unidentified pills, a pill press, fentanyl, propane, explosive materials, and formaldehyde. It’s also noted that thousands of dollars worth of wine bottles were also found inside.
Reportedly, a rep for the NYPD released a statement saying:
“The NYPD’s Ghost Gun Team seized several ghost gun parts as well as equipment for pressing narcotics pills….Team members also discovered materials typically used as components in explosives, including pressure cookers and various chemicals, which can also be used for manufacturing narcotics,”
According to the spokesperson, however, the Fox relatives are not being perceived as a domestic threat. In fact, it’s reported that neither Christopher nor Thomas has a criminal record. The rep additionally stated:
“At this time, the matter is believed to be contained, with no apparent nexus to terrorism…the NYPD will continue to fight relentlessly against illegal guns – against both the steady proliferation of traditionally-manufactured firearms and the increasingly prevalent numbers of illegal, untraceable but fully functioning weapons known as ghost guns.”
Julia Fox, who has romantic ties with the likes of Kanye West and Drake, has not yet commented publicly on the matter. Inside sources reportedly close to the 33-year-old have reported she is “shocked” and “heartbroken” by the arrests. Fox is normally an active social media participant. However, it seems the “Uncut Gems” star has been off the grid since mid-February.
