Jayda Cheaves Calls Gun Possession Arrest An “Honest Mistake”

This controversy is a thing of the past for Jayda Cheaves. The mogul and mother of Lil Baby’s child recently made her way to Jamaica to celebrate her birthday in extravagant style, but upon attempting to return home via a private jet, authorities reportedly located two firearms. Cheaves and a man named Gregory Wright were detained.

After reportedly pleading guilty to two counts of illegal gun possession and paying over $5,000 in fines, they both were released. Cheaves reappeared on social media with a message of gratitude for her friends and fans.
