Uncle Murda Cops to ID Theft Charge


New York rapper Leonard Grant, artistically known as Uncle Murda, has been convicted of attempting to use a fraudulent California identification card at Los Angeles International Airport, the L.A. city attorney’s office said today.

“It was a legitimate ID. But it was the ID of another individual,” said Frank Mateljan, a spokesman for the city attorney’s office. “He was trying to pass it off as his own. His motivation for doing so is unknown.”

Grant, 27, pleaded “no contest” to one count of possession of a counterfeit ID, according to a statement from City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo’s office. “Commissioner Mark Zuckman sentenced Grant to 18 months probation and ordered him to perform 50 hours of community service,” the statement said.
