Boosie Badazz Hires Lobbyists To Seek Trump Pardon Before Sentencing

He faces a potential two-year term at a Nov. 21 federal sentencing in his San Diego gun case.

Overview

  • Public filings identified by LegiStorm show Boosie retained J. M. Burkman & Associates to pursue a presidential pardon from Donald Trump.
  • The registration lists Jack Burkman and Jacob Wohl as the lobbyists working on his behalf to seek clemency.
  • Boosie accepted a federal plea in August 2025 in the 2023 firearm case and is awaiting sentencing set for Nov. 21.
  • Federal prosecutors have recommended a 24‑month prison sentence after dropping a second weapons count as part of the plea.
  • Burkman and Wohl have prior convictions tied to 2020 voter-suppression robocalls, and clemency experts describe the current pardon process as irregular and uncertain.
