Star Of ‘Single Ladies’ Found Guilty Of Child Molestation
A few days ago, Harold “House” Moore was getting praise from friends on Twitter about his appearance on “Hawaii Five-O.”
Now he’s awaiting sentenc- ing for child molestation.
Moore , played ‘Terrence’ the brother of the main char- acter, ‘Malcolm’ on “Single Ladies,” “CSI” and Tyler Perry’s “House of Payne,” was convicted Friday of violating a 15-year-old girl in Gwinnett County.
Moore, who had reportedly been playing Dr. Dre in a forthcoming Tupac Shakur biopic, is facing five to 20 years in prison. The jury returned its
verdict after more than nine hours of deliberation, finding him guilty of sneaking into the girl’s bedroom and touching her early in the morning on Nov. 25, 2012, according to a news release from the Gwin- nett district attorney’s office.
Defense attorney Shannon Briley-Holmes has already prepared a motion for a new trial.
Moore testified during the trial and maintained his inno- cence. Moore had been out on bond since his arrest in 2012 and living in Los Angeles, but was immediately arrested after the verdict.
Kevin Hart is technically #5 on the list, because there was a tie for #4.

Lil Wayne Has Another Seizure?
The Game’s Son Raises
More Than $50,000 For Arkansas Police Officer
Snoop And The Game Lead Peaceful March Of Men Of Color To LAPD HQ
The Game has taken the lead in seeking reconciliation between the Black community and police. Last week, he and Snoop Dogg brought a group of men to meet with the LAPD to have an open discussion about the state of the country.
Like father like son, The Game’s 13-year-old son, Harlem Taylor, started a GoFundMe to support Offi- cer Tommy Norland. The Compton, California rapper took to Instagram to explain that they found out about the cop’s work through the social media site.
Officer Norland is active in the Black community in Lit- tle Rock, Arkansas. His Insta- gram shows photos of him playing with the children and laughing with the elderly.
In his post, The Game uses Officer Norland to disprove stereotypes of cops and says
there is a difference between bad cops and good cops.
Racial tension in America is high after two Black men, Alton Sterling and Phi- lando Castile, were shot and killed by police officers last week. Five police officers were then killed in Dallas at a Black Lives Matter Rally.
The Documentary rapper addresses any potential criti- cism from those saying he should donate the money him- self. He says he donated the first $1,000 and wanted to em- power his son by allowing him to set up the GoFundMe and invite the public to join him.
The Game does his own charity work through The Robin Hood project. Leading up to the release of The Docu- mentary 2, he gave away $1,000 a day to fans. He also donated $1 million to the city of Flint, Michigan in the midst of its water crisis.

Rappers and Los Angeles- area natives the Game and Snoop Dogg led a unification march for men of color Friday morning to the LAPD’s gradua- tion of its newest officers.
Snoop and the Game ar- rived at headquarters with about 100 marchers as a new class of 37 police recruits were graduating. They were greeted by senior police officials and later appeared at a press con- ference with Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti.
Snoop organizers didn’t
know there was an LAPD re- cruit graduation scheduled for last Friday morning. He shook hands with police officials and told reporters he hoped his presence would help reintro- duce the Black community to the department and open a di- alogue.
The march was the latest ex- pression of solidarity by celebrities after a growing toll of dead civilians, mostly Black, were killed by police in inci- dents around the country and caught on video.
