XXXTentacion Killers Hit With Life In Prison

by

The music world was rocked when controversial rapper XXXTentacion was shot and killed at a Florida motorcycle dealership in 2018. Viral footage showed his exit blocked by an SUV and a fatal confrontation with three men. However, regardless of how you felt about XXXTentacion, the death of a young and vibrant musician was an undeniable tragedy. Despite it being nearly five years since his death, the case has remained painfully relevant.

His alleged killers only faced trial two months ago. Despite being arrested in late 2018, Michael Boatwright, Trayvon Newsome, and Dedrick Williams faced trial in February 2023. They were charged with first-degree murder and robbery with a firearm. According to the prosecution, the three men tracked and deliberately targeted XXXTentacion before confronting and killing him as he left RIVA Motorsports in Deerfield Beach. The three men were also accused of stealing $50,000 and a Louis Vuitton bag. The trial featured testimony from Tentacion’s uncle, Leonard Kerr, who was with him at the dealership. It also heard from Robert Allen, a fourth defendant who had pled guilty to a lesser charge. The court also heard a wave of other damning testimony. Boatwright, Newsome, and Williams were found guilty on all counts on March 20. It took the jury eight days to decide a verdict.

Life Sentences For Murder Of XXXTentacion

Two and a half weeks after being found guilty, XXXTentacion’s killers returned to court to receive their sentence. First reported by TMZ, the judge passed down a life sentence to the three men. However, the sentencing was a mere formality. In the state of Florida, the men would face mandatory life sentences if found guilty. There was no surprise and change to that as the judge handed down the sentences. Allen, who pled guilty to second-degree murder in exchange for his testimony, will be sentenced at a later date.

However, the sentencing of Boatwright, Newsome, and Williams brings to a close a five-year saga. It is the end of an ordeal for the family, friends, and fans of the late rapper. With his killers now set to spend the rest of their lives behind bars, people associated with XXXTentacion can now truly begin to heal. They can begin to move on, knowing that justice has been served.

by

Maxo Kream just confirmed that he turned himself in to authorities for charges stemming from his 2016 RICO case. Moreover, he took to Instagram to confirm the news reported by Say Cheese TV and give a message to his followers. Furthermore, he said that he’s only going back on minimal charges and will be free soon.

Maxo Kream Back Behind Bars On His Own Accord

Regarding the RICO case in question, authorities arrested Maxo Kream and seven other alleged members of the Kream Clicc gang in 2016. Before blowing up as an MC, Maxo reportedly joined the 52 Hoover Gangster Crips as a teenage drug dealer. Said involvement caught up with him and, along with the rest of the Kream Clicc, he faced charges of money laundering, drug trafficking, and more. After posting $200,000 bail and getting out, he maintained his innocence. “They’re out here saying organized crime, bro,” he tweeted back then. “I’m organizing music for my album….Doing right….Trying to take care of the family.”

Later, the 33-year-old announced on Instagram in 2018 that he and his legal team beat the case. “Laws hit me wit the RICO but my Power Attorney had the Cheat Code,” he captioned his post. As of writing this article, it’s unclear whether law enforcement revisited his initial arrest and involvement, or if this is due to completely new discoveries. With that in mind, come back to HNHH for the latest updates on this story and more news on Maxo Kream.

Andrew Tate Potentially Incriminated Himself In Jail Call

by

New reports online suggest that Andrew Tate potentially incriminated himself in a jail phone call during his human trafficking case. Moreover, the main source for these reports is a video from account Lawyers For Workers. In said clip, the lawyer alleges that a source close to Tate revealed that the controversial influencer might’ve messed up on the record. For those of you unaware, Romanian authorities arrested Tate and his brother in late December of last year on charges of assault and human trafficking.

While these reports are unofficial at the moment, he spoke often of his malicious and illegal activities, so it’s not exactly a surprise. Still, the lawyer explained the alleged situation in a video posted by No Jumper to Instagram. “We got a credible report of Andrew Tate doing some really dumb things,” the lawyer began. “So, he’s in Romanian prison, lock-up, detention, waiting for his trial. Like in the United States, they let you make calls. Like in the United States, they monitor your calls… anything you say can and will be used against you.

Andrew Tate Might’ve Incriminated Himself While In Jail

“The reports are that this guy did two outrageously out of bounds things on jail calls,” he continued. “So often, jail calls is what gets people screwed. They end up admitting stuff that gets them charged with the crime or they start committing whole new crimes. In this guy’s case, first, there’s only a list of people that he’s allowed to call. The reports are that he called people on the approved list, but then they patched in other third parties.

“That could be its own crime, certainly not going to help his attempts to get out on bond,” the lawyer went on. “Big trouble, if you ask me. Number two- this is actually the real problem. They’re saying he’s on jail calls discussing with another individual bribing two Romanian public officials.” However this case ends up developing, Tate continues to be outspoken and boastful online. Recently, he addressed rumors that he was battling lung cancer in a bizarre tweet. Regardless of your take, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on Andrew Tate.

Kay Flock Shows Gains In New Jail Photo

by

It’s been well over a year since Bronx up-and-comer Kay Flock was taken into custody for the murder of 24-year-old Oscar Hernandez. Police released footage from the Dec. 2021 incident, which sees Kay—real name Kevin Perez—approaching the victim once noticing him in a barber shop. As the 19-year-old awaits trial, he’s unfortunately been hit with yet another charge, this time for racketeering. On Feb. 23, Kay Flock was federally indicted for allegedly running the Sev Side/DOA gang with five others.

In spite of the charges brought against him, the “Make A Movie” drill artist appears to be maintaining behind bars. In a newly-obtained image, a noticeably larger Kay Flock is seen posting up in his cell. Dressed in jail garb and all-white Air Force 1’s, the photo is captioned with lyrics from King Von’s “How It Go” single. Kay updated fans about his case almost one year ago on Instagram, letting them know not to “believe the blogs or the internet” as “all is good.” In a recent phone call he’s heard saying “I’ll be back real soon, 2023 March, ya heard?” As we enter the month in question, that sadly doesn’t seem to be happening.

Kay Flock Shows Off His Progress

Jeffrey Lichtman, former attorney of El Chapo, announced he will be taking on the murder case in July 2022. Calling Kay Flock “a good kid,” Lichtman writes: “I’m looking forward to winning his trial. When the facts come out I think people will be shocked he was even charged.” He also claims it was an act of self-defense, as Kay was presented with no other options. He expounded on the cases in a recent interview with Fox 5’s Lisa Evers, as well as his new podcast, Beyond the Legal Limit. The episode, released Monday (Feb. 27) can now be streamed on Apple, Spotify, and iHeartRadio.

In the interim, Kay Flock has continued to release new music, with his latest offering having dropped in December. The D.O.A. Tape: Care Package is an extension to his debut, and sees previously released records like “Geeked Up” with Gucci Mane and Flock’s Cardi-B-assisted “Shake It” single.

Boosie Badazz Wants Nipsey Hussle’s Killer To Get Stabbed To Death By Crips In Jail

by

Boosie Badazz recently expressed that he wants Nipsey Hussle’s killer, Eric Holder, to get stabbed to death by crips while in jail. Of course, the harsh, morbid, and vengeful tweet came after the court sentenced Holder to 60 years for the murder. Moreover, authorities sentenced him after finding him guilty of first degree murder on Wednesday (February 22) for the 2019 killing. While many debated whether this sentence is enough, clearly the Louisiana rapper wants a more extreme price to pay. Furthermore, he took to Twitter to fire off the intense wish.

“JUST 60 years for killing Nip n he go get PAROLE N 20 lol,” Boosie wrote. “I hope some crips stab him to death n prison! MAKE NIP SMILE!” Though Boosie stated some disappointment, Hussle’s friend Cowboy spoke to TMZ about justice and grief in this case.  “60 years, that’ll hold him,” he shared. “It was definitely justice for Nipsey. It’s going to hurt forever. It’s going to be an open wound forever because we’re not going to get over Nipsey… He got all this time but it’s not going to bring Nipsey back.

Boosie Badazz Goes Off On Nipsey’s Killer

“I’m still grieving Nipsey,” he continued. “I could imagine how his mom, his dad, his brother – they were tight. I’m still hurt and I was just his friend.” On the other hand, many waited for a long time to learn the fate of Eric Holder. Moreover, the court delayed his sentencing for various reasons following his July 2022 grand jury conviction. Allegedly, Holder took issue with Nipsey accusing him of being a snitch, while he just tried to warn him about.

“Nipsey was like, ‘Man, you know, they got some paperwork on you, you know,” a witness told the grand jury in 2019. “‘I haven’t read it, you know. Like you my bro, you know. Like maybe you need to take care of that, you know.’” Holder also suffered a brutal prison attack during his two-week trial. With this new sentence in mind, animosity towards Holder will likely remain, but Nipsey’s memory and life can be celebrated more in peace now. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news on Nipsey Hussle and his enduring legacy.

Pooh Shiesty Posts From Jail, Boasts About Status, Money: “Jay-Z Can’t Even Relate”

by

He was an artist climbing the Rap ranks when Pooh Shiesty was indicted in 2021. It stemmed from a shooting in October 2020, but in June 2021, Shiesty was arrested for a separate incident. The rapper faced several charges, but in the end, he pleaded guilty to conspiracy to possess a firearm in furtherance of violent and drug-trafficking crimes. Pooh was sentenced to five years behind bars, and he’s remained relatively quiet—that is, until now.

On Tuesday evening (February 21), Shiesty emerged on Instagram with a lengthy post. Unsurprisingly, the message was also quickly shared, and it looked as if the rapper was talking that talk from behind bars. He seemed more concerned with his street cred and Google’s listing of his net worth. “King Shiesty tappin in from the middle of the pennititary aka Hell where they say i cant go , jailing no telling !!” he began. “I still remain Untouched , Millions still in double digits ! tell google fix my networth we can verify that sh*t right now.”

Pooh Shiesty Boasts About His Status

He continued: “Yeah im locked up not f*cked up. i was 21 up 8 figures jayZ cant even relate my money tripple my followers.” Additionally, it seemed that Shiesty was upset with how certain people were speaking about him. “Stop playing with my name before i buy one of you for sale ass n*ggas you n*ggas ANYTHING! I put on for this Choppa Gang sh*t everyday. Twice on Sundays im on the same sh*t from Tokio to Tennesse.”

After a bit more bragging, Shiesty had a message for those who have stood in his corner. “For my fans , supporters , love ones holding me down everyday,” he said. “Keep keeping it solid i promise it dont get unnoticed i see everything and got some special for all word is law.” However, he also had a scathing note for his foes.

Shiesty Has Words For His Enemies

“The rest of you pussies dead ! keep hating , false advertising , back biting , and counting me out, it up and stuck like a tree house,” he further stated. “Im touching down to terrorize i gotta dorito on my shoulder im going 100% flamboyant on you f*cking clowns ! its all bad for you wild ass n*ggas ‘ ALL EYES ON SHIEST ‘ #NeverCheckedIn #SnitchK #No5k1 #Norule35 #Mr.Omerta.” Read the post in its entirety above.

JT Recalls Feeling “Exempt” From Jail While She Scammed People

by

JT recently spoke on how she felt “exempt” from jail during a time when she scammed people to hustle. Moreover, she discussed broader themes of incarceration and generational issues on the Angie Martinez IRL podcast. During their conversation, the City Girl recalled her mother, brother, and sister all going to jail. However, as she grew up, she felt invincible to imprisonment despite her risky lifestyle. Moreover, she said that she didn’t fear prison time, because her friends were doing the same and maintaining freedom. In the Instagram clip of their conversation’s caption, the media personality explained JT’s story.

“@thegirljt is a born hustler, she’s always been an intelligent girl who wanted to move faster and further,” the post read. “From Burger King to Whole Foods to scammin’ to rapping and topping the charts, JT always had the skills, but she couldn’t always break the generational curses. Less than two months after dropping her first record with the City Girls, she was indicted and would later have to go on to serve a federal prison sentence. Based on statistics, [JT’s] story could have been bad, REAL BAD, But God had something bigger for her.”

Furthermore, the 30-year-old elaborated on her story. “You wanna know a secret?” she asked Angie. “My mom, my brother, and my sister on my mom’s side, they all had been to prison. I thought I was exempt. I thought it couldn’t happen to me. All my friends scammin’, and none of them went to jail. I thought I was untouchable. I thought I was going to be out here in my Chanel bags. My Gucci, and I though I was going to get away with it…and I was going to live my best life. But God had something bigger for me, you know? I feel like that’s the reason I never went to prison. It could’ve went bad. Real bad,” she concluded, laughing with Martinez.

Meanwhile, the Miami rapper just spoke glowingly of her boo, Lil Uzi Vert, and how inspiring they are. Between that and avoiding a life-changing scam bust, JT has much to be appreciative for. As always, come back to HNHH for more inspiring stories and the latest on JT and the City Girls.

Fredo Bang Reveals Drug Smuggling Tales From Behind Bars

by

Fredo Bang recently opened up about his experiences behind bars for two years, and also shared his proximity to drug smugglers in prison. While he doesn’t have much first-hand experience, he revealed some curious terminology. Moreover, the Baton Rouge MC served two years in jail for a second degree attempted murder charge. He spoke to VladTV of his tales, and as he dug deeper, he had some terms to explain. Furthermore, Vlad asked him of the cruel ways in which people rob smugglers who use their anal cavities to hide drugs. During his explanation, he said that people in prison call their rear end their Gucci bag.

“Your Gucci bag,” he stated, before explaining that using it didn’t mean you were safe from a beatdown. “They gon’ beat you up, they gon’ pin you down, they going off in there. They want that mojo, they want that meth and they want that back. If they gotta go in that back, that’s what they doing.” While Fredo sold drugs while he served time, he claimed to never have gone that far.

“I ain’t even gon’ lie, I ain’t never played those games,” Fredo said, “I don’t even know how to wipe back there too long, you feel me? I ain’t never played with my Gucci bag. When I was selling drugs in jail, I used to have like a little pocket. I had a migo stitch in the pocket. So when I go in there, I just pull it out the pants. If I’m getting searched it don’t really show too much. I ain’t put nothing in my Gucci bag.”

Still, the 26-year-old didn’t give much further details about how he got the drugs in the facility. In fact, that seems to be part of his nature. Reportedly, he refused to answer questions during a pre-trial conference for YNW Melly’s double murder trial last June. Fredo continuously invoked his Fifth Amendment rights and the judge denied the prosecution’s motion to require him to answer. As always, log back into HNHH for the latest on Fredo Bang, the case of YNW Melly, and more interesting revelations from rappers.
