Rosenblum is representing the Hot In Herre artist, 49, after his arrest early Wednesday in Maryland Heights, an outer suburb of St. Louis, Missouri, after police allegedly discovered four ecstasy pills in his vehicle. Nelly's lawyer Scott Rosenblum is pushing back on the 49-year-old rapper's Wednesday arrest in connection with suspected drug possession, saying he was 100 percent 'confident this case will go nowhere'; pictured in his mug shot from the Maryland Heights Police Department Rosenblum implied that the officer treated Nelly differently due to his fame, as 'under similar circumstances, assuming there was an old warrant without any notice to the individual for no proof of insurance, any other citizen would have been told to address it and allowed to go on their way.'
