Bond for Patrick Clark, Takeoff's alleged killer, stays at $1 million after a judge ruled previous statements show he has more money than he claims.
Despite expectations from attorneys, the man accused of killing Migos rapper Takeoff will remain in jail on a $1 million bond."We're very surprised byABC13 in Houston reported on Tuesday that 33-year-old Clark could be out of custody within 24 to 48 hours if his attorneys completed a few more requests coming from the judge. However, a different decision was made.
However, on Tuesday, Hill ruled that previous statements made by Clark indicated that he could pay a $1 million bail and that there are bail bond companies that would take on that risk. For that reason, the judge denied the request to lower the bond to $300,000, keeping it at $1 million. Clark's attorney said the suspect's family is willing to put up their Houston-area home as collateral to bond him out of jail. In addition, the whole family will co-sign a bond issued by a bondsman if lowered, which Mark Metze, a bail bondsman, said the family has already taken care of.
Kirsnick Khari Ball, known professionally as Takeoff, was shot to death in the early morning hours of Nov. 1 outside a bowling alley in downtown Houston. Police said he was in a crowd of people and an innocent bystander near an argument over a dice game. During a previous bond reduction hearing, a timeline detailing Clark's efforts to obtain the expedited passport was laid out. His father testified that this past summer, the family discussed taking a trip together, but he became ill, so they did not go.
