\n\tTekashi 6ix9ine (Daniel Hernandez) was arrested Tuesday (Oct. 29) over allegations that he violated the terms of a parole agreement struck with prosecutors after the rapper agreed to testify against his former Brooklyn gangmates.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe rapper was arraigned in Manhattan federal court Tuesday over alleged violations of his supervised release, which is set to expire in April 2025. According to court records, Tekashi pleaded not guilty to the new violations and was ordered to remain in custody until his next court date.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a statement to Billboard<\/em>, Tekashi\u2019s attorney Lance Lazzaro<\/strong> said his client had been \u201ccharged with three technical violations regarding his supervised release\u201d and that he was \u201cconfident that each specification will be dismissed.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tTekashi was originally charged in 2018 with federal racketeering and murder conspiracy charges over his involvement with a New York City street gang called Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods. He then famously flipped on the gang and provided bombshell testimony in return for a plea deal, which saw him sentenced to just two years in prison and five years of supervised release.<\/p>\n

\n\tAt Tuesday\u2019s hearing, prosecutors argued that Tekashi had violated his release conditions by traveling to Las Vegas without permission, failing to submit for drug testing and testing positive for methamphetamine, according to Matthew Russell Lee of Inner City Press<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe hearing featured arguments from Lazzaro that the failed drug test was from the use of prescribed Adderall, according to Josh Russell of Courthouse News<\/em><\/a> \u2014 but the judge was apparently unswayed, citing a \u201cbroader pattern\u201d of misconduct during parole that he said suggests a \u201cfull spectrum disregard for the law.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tTekashi\u2019s next court date is an evidentiary hearing set for Nov. 12.<\/p>\n

\n\tOnce a rising star in the world of hip-hop and social media, Tekashi was charged in November 2018 alongside several other members of Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods, who prosecutors claimed \u201cwreaked havoc on New York City\u201d by \u201cengaging in brazen acts of violence.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBut just a day after being arrested, Hernandez cut a deal with federal prosecutors to flip on his crew in return for lenience. Taking the witness stand during a 2019 trial, he offered detailed and frank testimony about his involvement in the gang and his former gangmates.<\/p>\n

\n\tUnder the deal with prosecutors, Tekashi was sentenced to two years in prison and five years of supervised release and ordered to serve 1,000 hours of community service and pay a $35,000 fine.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe prison sentence was set to run until July 2020, but Hernandez was released early, in April 2020, after his attorneys argued that the COVID-19 pandemic posed an increased risk to him because he suffers from asthma.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
