After some issues at a Justin Bieber mall appearance at Roosevelt Mall in November, the pop star's manager, Scooter Braun, is being arrested on two misdemeanor charges: reckless endangerment and obstruction of governmental administration.
While Justin was on the way to the appearance, Jim Roppo, SVP Sales of Def Jam, called Braun and connected him with what seemed to be a police officer. The officer allegedly requested that the manager make a Twitter post to avoid the riot that was taking place in the mall.
Scooter then went to the nearest computer and made the following Tweets on Justin's behalf.
He Tweeted:
"they are not allowing me to come into the mall. If you don't leave I and my fans will be arrested as the police have just told us that."
"the event at roosevelt mall is cancelled. Please go home. The police have already arrested one person from my camp. I don't want anyone hurt.
Authorities claim it took too long for Justin's fans to receive that news and are holding Scooter responsible. Ironically, Justin's now using Twitter to show his support. He tweeted, "free scooterbraun - support u 100%." In Chicago, the pop heartthrob, along with this team, wore white t-shirts that said "Free Scooter."
If found guilty, Scooter could spend up to a year in jail.
