Juice Wrld's friends think he was racially profiled by the police

There are assumptions that Juice Wrld was racially profiled by the police for being a young black rich man.

The friends of the late rapper, Juice Wrld think he was been racially profiled by the police in the United States.

According to TMZ, sources close to Juice Wrld says all the issues he had with police looked suspicious. According to them, it was suspicious that the police always showed up every time the singer was at any airport.

Sources close to TMZ also revealed that Juice got arrested in 2018 at NYC's La Guardia Airport after officers responded to a call for "prohibited items" found inside one of his checked bags. The items included a small amount of marijuana and bottles of codeine cough syrup.

Juice was initially charged with misdemeanor possession of marijuana, and possession of a controlled substance, however, we're told he eventually pled to a much lesser, non-criminal offense. The case has since been sealed.
