Nate Dogg Posts Bail

Hip Hop hook singer Nate Dogg, who suffered a stroke that left him partially paralyzed earlier this year, has been going through a thang. First it was the stroke thing, which when word first leaked out, was largely dismissed as rumor but turned out to be horribly true. Then in 2006 he got charged with five misdemeanors -- aggravated trespass of a dwelling, battery, annoying telephone calls, dissuading a witness from reporting a crime and violating a protective order from a previous domestic violence incident -- after breaking into a Huntington Beach home where his ex-girlfriend, her new boyfriend and her mother lived. After Nate got in the house, he punched the boyfriend in the face and left. Three of the five charges were eventually dropped, but Nate's ex and her man filed restraining orders against him.

Anyway Nate got arrested a couple of weeks ago for trying to run his current wife off the road, driving with a suspended license and making terrorists threats. So yesterday after his arraignment, Nate posted $100,000.00 bail and was released with a warning to stay away from his wife. Nate is due back in court August 1.
