B2K Member J Boog Released, Fights Alleged Domestic Situation

Posted on 01/06/10 - J Boog Former B2K member Jarell Houston, aka J-Boog, has been released from police custody in Los Angeles after being arrested for suspicion of domestic violence and unpaid traffic tickets.

While the "Bounce" singer is reportedly happy to be free, sources close to him say allegations of there being a domestic situation between him and the mother of his children are 100% false.

"There hasn't been an official filing for domestic violence," Damuer Leffridge, COO of Boog's label, Popular Records, told VIBE late Tuesday.

TMZ, speaking with neighbors, was first to report that Boog had been arrested after neighbors said they heard screaming followed by six to seven police squad cars.

While Leffridge says Boog's girlfriend is in fact the woman involved, she has no plans to press charges for what could be called a verbal dispute...
