According to reports, a lack of sufficient evidence helped Flocka avoid suiting up for court.

Waka Flocka Flame can rest a little easier today — because a grand jury just CLEARED the rapper of all drug related charges stemming from a police raid on his Georgia home. A grand jury in Henry County, GA ruled … there was not enough evidence against Waka to warrant a trial for the drug charges filed against him — possession of a controlled substance and possession of weed measuring less than an ounce. Three other charges stemming from the raid were dropped before the case went in front of the grand jury. (TMZ)

In January, Flocka turned himself in to police after his home was raided.
