Back in August, Atlanta's own Young Jeezy was arrested along with five others on his tour bus for possession of an assault rifle. Authorities found the weapon while executing a search warrant and Jeezy was held on a whopping $1,000,000 bail.

Jeezy was released four days later and pled not guilty to the gun charges, claiming the gun belonged to his security chief who had a license to carry the weapon, but was shot the night before and remained hospitalized. While it took time for Jeezy to clear his name, it's now being revealed that police may have known all along that Jeezy was innocent.

According to TMZ, here's what police already knew and swept under the rug.

- The weapons in question didn't belong to Jeezy.

- Cops inspected the guns two days before and determined they were not involved in the murder that took place at Wiz Khalifa & Jeezy's show, the whole reason police said they searched the tour bus that night.

- The security chief purchased the AK-47 legally in Georgia, but it's illegal to possess an AK-47 in California ... yet the security guard was never charged.

- Jeezy and the other 5 people on the bus who were charged weren't in direct proximity to the weapon when cops boarded the bus. The gun was in a case behind the security chief's bunk bed, and Jeezy was in a closed, separate cabin.

- DNA results confirm none of the 6 people arrested even touched the weapon.

- Authorities held all 6 people on $1 MILLION bail, even though the recommended bail for that offense is $20k.

- All 6 defendants sat in jail for 4 days until they got the bail reduced.

Jeezy spoke to VladTV after his release, saying he felt the arrest was bogus as well, and it seems he may have been right. Check out pics of the Snowman above.
