Baton Rouge rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again f.k.a. NBA YoungBoy could be facing a lengthy prison sentence if prosecutors have their way.
The Advocate reports that East Baton Rouge Parish Assistant District Attorney April Leon alleges the 18-year old is "a threat to society and the safety of others" in court documents. She wants the probation for his role in a nonfatal 2016 drive-by shooting.revoked ... and for him to serve the suspended 10-year prison term.
Monday's court proceedings stem from YoungBoy's February 24 arrest in Tallahasee, Florida on outstanding out-of-state warrants.
He's accused of body slamming his girlfriend, Jania, then dragging her back into their Waycross, Georgia hotel room. The scene was caught on surveillance footage, but Jania now says they were "just playing."
YoungBoy, born Kentrell Gaulden, was extradited to Georgia on February 26. He's being held without bail in a Ware County jail on charges of felony kidnapping and aggravated assault.
"It's serious, but it's not nearly as severe as it's been made out to be," YoungBoy's attorney, James Manasseh, argued. “There’s no kidnapping. There’s no weapons involved.”
He added that he has been in contact with Georgia officials.
Leon is asking the judge in the case to conduct a probation revocation hearing on May 18.
