Earlier this week, TMZ suggested that Bobby Shmurda's family had cobbled together enough money to meet the rapper's $2 million bail and get him out of prison. The family reportedly attempted to post his bail today, but the judge rejected their efforts, meaning that Shmurda will remain behind bars. The rapper's legal team had no comment about the latest development.

Shmurda's trial is set to take place next February. Here's what you need to know about his indictment.
