Boosie Badazz has made peace with accepting a plea deal in his gun possession case, which he was originally charged for in 2023.
The Baton Rouge rapper (real name Torence Hatch) was arrested during a traffic stop in San Diego in 2023, where officers recovered two handguns, per Fox 5 San Diego. A state charge for the arrest was dismissed, but the rapper was charged with possession of a weapon by a felon.
Also reviewed was a social media video that allegedly showed the rapper wearing a gun in his waistband while with a local gang member. Boosie was required to wear an ankle monitor after posting $100,000 but removed it during a pool party last June to celebrate his pending dismissal.
Boosie victoriously walked out of a courthouse the following month to celebrate his gun charge dismissal, but according to a new X post, shared on Monday (August 4), the announcement might have been premature.
“JUST ACCEPTED A PLEA FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ON MY GUN CASE,” he wrote. “I THOUGHT THIS CASE WAS OVER N I WAS GOING TO GET ON WITH MY LIFE BUT ‘GOD DONT MAKE MISTAKES’ N IM TIRED OF FIGHTING.”
“TALKED TO MY FAMILY N THIS IS THE RIGHT DECISION,” he continued. “TO ALL MY FANS ACROSS THE WORLD SAY A PRAYER FOR YA BOY N GO GET THE NEW ALBUM #wordsofarealone.”
After the gun charge was thought to be dismissed last year, Boosie left the courthouse in tears. “This situation made me see who was down with me and who wasn’t,” he told Courthouse News. “Ninety percent of people thought I was going to prison, but God had a different plan.”
