You may know him as the over the top, in your face Miami rapper Gunplay, but to the courts, the Dade Country rapper is known simply by his government name (Richard Morales) and the rap sheet attached to it.
Back in October, Gunplay was arrested by the authorities for his possible involvement in an armed robbery at a tax preparation office located in Miami-Dade County. The robbery was caught on film and Gunplay was suspected to be the man on video toting a gun.
