US rapper NBA YoungBoy pleaded guilty to several drug fraud charges in a Logan, Utah, courtroom. The rapper admitted to two counts of felony identity fraud, two counts of forgery, and six counts of unlawful pharmacy conduct. Initially facing 46 charges, YoungBoy’s plea deal reduced these to misdemeanors, avoiding additional prison time in exchange for a $25,000 fine.
NBA YoungBoy, currently serving a 27-month federal sentence, also entered a no-contest plea for 36 other charges. The judge, Spencer Walsh, expressed hope that he could succeed on federal probation after serving his sentence.
Besides this case, YoungBoy faces an unresolved federal gun charge in Louisiana, adding to his legal challenges as he looks toward his future.
