If you didn’t know, former Destiny Child’s singer, Farah Franklin has been arrested several times. She’s no stranger to being locked up, which is awfully sad for someone who could have had a promising future in spite of her depature from Destiny’s Child.
In case you didn’t know, in 2011, Franklin was arrested for Disorderly Conduct. Franklin claims she was “manhandled” by the arresting officers and was a victim of racial profiling.
“Unfortunately, I am the latest victim on what seems to be a growing list of those who are racially profiled and mistreated by Culver City Police,” she told TMZ. “I am really upset about all that has taken place. I have never had a run in with the law before Saturday. On Saturday I was not arrested, I was detained.”

So no fast forward to 2016, and it’s been exactly sixteen years since her dismissal from Destiny’s Child, and she was arrested last night for public intoxication — note the red nose in her mug shot.
According to police, Farrah got into an argument with a male friend around 3 AM Thursday outside a gym in DeKalb County, GA.
When officers showed up she said she was not ready to go home, and added … “These n***** won’t leave me alone.” Police noticed signs of drunkenness — odor of booze, slurred speech and bloodshot eyes — and asked how much she’d been drinking. She fired back, “Not enough.”
Bail is set at $250. She’s still in custody. Source
