Overview

  • A Bergen County judge credited Fivio Foreign with 196 days already served before handing down a three-year probation sentence on August 1.
  • His May guilty plea to third-degree terroristic threats led prosecutors to drop aggravated assault and illegal weapons charges stemming from a New Year’s Day parking-lot dispute.
  • The plea agreement allowed him to avoid a statutory minimum of five years behind bars that he faced due to prior convictions.
  • Under his probation, he must remain free of new offenses and submit to regular drug testing to maintain compliance with court requirements.
  • Fivio has not released new music since November and now faces the challenge of reclaiming his place in Brooklyn’s evolving drill scene.
