Would his high social media profile affect anything? This drama is visible for thousands+ of people after all.

A prosecutor isn't going to know who Boogie is unless their kids or grandkids watch his videos and they recognize him. Ralph is barely a nobody even among bottom tier e-celebs.
 
suspended sentence sounds about right imo.

A big difference between Ralph and Boogie is that Boogie committed his felony with a firearm. That could be worth a little time depending on the judge.

idk I know the justice system loves incarceration but I think that's usually more about violent crime and drugs. boogie's case is the kind where the state will act like their priority is not taking responsibility for housing and feeding another retard. at least that's the only way I can rationalize how I've seen courts act personally.

Can someone remind me why bail is a thing?

Bail is a natural consequence of the innocent until proven guilty mindset that the US judicial system is based on. Wasting away in a holding cell until your trial for a crime that you may not even be guilty for because you were in the wrong place at the wrong time (again assuming innocence here) directly conflicts with that. Now obviously not everyone who gets arrested and released is going to stick around for their trial, and especially not if they know they’re guilty; they’re going to run away and hide first chance they get. The bail bond system prevents that several ways. First there’s a background check, and then you pay collateral (usually in the form of cash) that’ll be returned to you after you show up to your trial.

Now you’re probably thinking, “But what if I’m too poor to afford bail? Am I just fucked?” Well not yet because if you can’t afford bail then you can hire a bail bondman (or bond agent) to pay the bail for you at a cheaper cost (usually 10% of the original bond). In an ideal world you pay the bondsman 10% of your bail, they cover the rest, you go to court, the court returns the entire bail to the bondsman, and everyone goes home. But what if you decide to bilk your bondsman and skip town on your court date? Bad idea, because you’ve now just ripped off a person who no doubt has a lot of connections to state and federal bounty hunters and you’ll now have a warrant out for your arrest, and needless to say that the best bondsmen always have their clients in court one way or another.

Nobody got hurt. I think both were cases of the government not wanting a perceived idiot to have access to a weapon.

I wonder if Boogie's mental illness(es) will be used against him by the State of Arkansas in wanting to justify stripping him of his right to own a firearm for good (Boogie being "Adjudicated mentally ill"):; see https://law.justia.com/codes/arkansas/2010/title-5/subtitle-6/chapter-73/subchapter-1/5-73-103/ (https://archive.ph/9URdA).

He may avoid a felony charge (and get a misdemeanour instead), but still be banned from owning a firearm for life; a win for the government either way.

To add a caveat: Only in *some* states are bondsmen necessary. Some other states allow the arrested person to pay 10% directly to the Court.

Nah, they're going to want a felony because they don't want him to have access to firearms. They'll give him a deal like "eat the felony and walk".

Convicted felon Boogie1488 what a world we live in. If he doesn't walk I'm betting the 'Boogie is dead' meme will become 'Boogie was raped'.
 
boogie must be ready to die of a heart attack panicking that he can't spin this on social media like he normally would, no doubt due to his "lawyer" telling him to keep his black hole mouth shut

Im fairly certain that you can have your right to legally purchase a firearm revoked. Also he couldn't get a concealed carry permit.

Convicted felons, regardless of the crime, have their rights to carry/concel arms revoked. If you so much as even have a handgun on your person or your house and you are a felon you don't pass go you go directly to jail.
