Taxstone has been indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of being a felon in possession of a firearm and receiving a gun through interstate commerce.
According to court documents obtained by Bossip, the indictments were handed down on Thursday, February 16.
As we previously reported, Taxstone, born Daryl Campbell, was initially arrested on January 16, by U.S. Marshals New York, New Jersey Regional Fugitive Task Force and the New York Police Department at his aunt's home in Brooklyn, in connection with a May 25, 2016 shooting at Irving Plaza in New York City.
Prosecutors allege that DNA found on a 9-millimeter Kel-Tec semiautomatic handgun used in the shooting backstage at a T.I. concert, prove the weapon belonged to the "Tax Season" podcast host.
The shooting was reportedly the culmination of a beef between Taxstone and rapper Troy Ave, who was wounded along with two others. Troy's best friend and bodyguard, Ronald "BSB Banga" McPhatter, was killed.
Tax allegedly had the weapon before entering the green room that night. The gun somehow ended up in Troy's hands following a fight between the two.
Troy, born Roland Collins, is seen on surveillance footage firing the weapon as Taxstone flees.
Troy was arrested last May for his alleged role in the shooting. He pleaded not guilty to charges of attempted murder and two counts of criminal possession of a weapon and is free on $500,000 bail.
Taxstone is currently being held without bail.
