9:23Now PlayingFetty Wap has been sentenced to six years in prison for his role in helping run an extensive drug ring out of Long Island.
The “Trap Queen” rapper (real name Willie Junior Maxwell II) had been in custody since last August when his bail was revoked following allegations that he displayed a firearm and threatened to kill someone while on a FaceTime call.
He pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute 500 grams or more of cocaine, and prosecutors argued for a longer sentence, claiming Fetty had used his platform to “glamorize the drug trade” while making millions from his music after “Trap Queen” dropped in 2015.
“Young people who admire the defendant and are considering selling drugs need to be sent a message that selling drugs is not a glamorous lifestyle and, if they participate in that trade, they will receive lengthy prison sentences,” said Breon Peace, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District, who asked for a sentence between seven and nine years.
Fetty Wap’s sentencing came on Wednesday (May 24) when he appeared before Judge Joanna Seybert at the federal court in Central Islip, N.Y. (via The New York Times).
Fetty was arrested on federal drug charges at New York’s Citi Field in October 2021 as he was gearing up to take the stage at New York’s Rolling Loud Festival.
