Rapper T.I. was released on bond Friday, but he’ll be confined to his home to await trial on weapons charges. T.I. (real name: Clifford Harris) walked out of the federal courthouse in downtown Atlanta after posting a $3 million bond — $2 million in cash and $1 million in equity on property he owns.

“I want to thank all the fans for their support,” Harris said as he left the courthouse. “Due to the severity of the situation, I can’t say much more.”

Before hopping into a black sport utility vehicle, he added, “I want to get all of this behind me.”

U.S. Magistrate Judge Alan Baverman agreed to the bond over government objections so long as Harris follows certain conditions, including remaining in a home except for medical appointments and court appearances.

Harris also was required to surrender his passport, not own any guns and stay away from witnesses and informants in the case. The only people who will be allowed to live with him are his girlfriend and children. Visitors must be approved by the court.- more
