Celebrity Justice
The Grass Is Greener in New York

Joseph Simmons, Jr. -- son of rap legend Rev Run -- just pled guilty to one charge of disorderly conduct in New York after being busted last May for marijuana possession.

Joseph Simmons Jr.
As part of the plea, the 19-year-old's possession charge was dropped -- he'll only have to serve one day of community service. That's gotta hurt.

31. OMG!! It's just POT people...wich most of your kid's are probably smoking it right now..what are they supposed to lock him up.Go after real criminals... It's either because the kids black or his dad is a celebrity that you are acting outraged.

32. I don't think it is a big deal that this happened. Kids are kids. It is just funny that Rev Run pulls out the Reverend collar only when he is trying to make a statement.... What exactly does he do that makes him a Reverend? He is super funyn and a good guy, but he does spoil his kids too much. Pays them to behave. His show used to be one of my favorites, but now it has turned into a half hour commercial for whatever family venture they are trying to sell.

33. I thought this family was squeaky clean...I hope JoJo realizes that spending time smoking pot is not very productive and moves on to other more important things in life.

35. YOU CAN TOTALLY TELL THAT HE IS AN OUTCAST IN HI FAMILY. I CAN TOTALLY TELL THAT HIS DAD DOESN'T LIKE HIM AND TREATS HIM DIFFERENTLY THAN THE REST OF THE KIDS. JOJO IF YOU ARE READING THIS I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU :(

36. OK...............it was a simple possession charge. His first offense. Where is the problem. The Kid from Harry Potter, had a Felony..........Possession of controlled substance with intent to sell/deliver/manufactor. There is a huge difference, and to top it off, he isn't in AMERICA.

37. 14. More special treatment for black "celebrities". This is just ridiculous.

Please, if you want to say it like that. The only blacks that get special treatment, lets not talk about all the white kids that get a break. Grow the hell up. Its not a blk or white thing stupid.

39. I don't believe this family and the hype of being a strong family in there faith. Maybe Hammer can show us what a tight close family with real faith can be. To some weed isn't so bad but it is a sign of weakness and you would think he would have enough strength being raised by his father to avoid it. I'm sure he is a pot head and I think the family is fake. I loved how Justine was trying to talk to diggy about his grades and she spoke the worse english, nothing very educated about her. Maybe she should go back to school for proper english. I never understood why a family with money don't promote education first and then let them go off and stereotypes after a college education. Not one of his kids is a college grad. Low to no ambiton and they will bleed Uncle Russ dry. Good luck with that, I'm sure Russ'es kids will be highly educated. Asian mommies don't play that.

44. I got busted for less then 1 ounce of "weed" and only had to pay a fine and take one class to take off my record... SO this doesnt sound unfair cause who his daddy is or the money!!! It just depends on the judge REALLY people its not like he was driving on the other side of the fwy.. Hopefully he learned his lesson I DID!!!

YOUR AN ASS. BECAUSE HE IS A CELEBRITY THAT HE HAS IT SO GOOD. IT IS WAS JUST ANOTHER BLACK, HISPANIC OR WHITE KID, HIS SENTENCE WOULD OF BEEN MUCH WORST. BECAUSE HE IS A CELEBRITY & A REV. CHILD, HE SHOULD BE SETTING A EXAMPLE FOR THOSE WHO LOOK UP TO HIM, NOT ACT LIKE AN ASS LIKE YOU
