NBA YoungBoy Pleads Guilty in Utah Prescription Drug Fraud Case

The rapper will serve 27 months in federal prison and pay a $25,000 fine as part of the plea deal.

NBA YoungBoy, real name Kentrell Gaulden, pleaded guilty to charges including identity fraud and forgery in a Utah court.
Originally facing 46 charges, Gaulden's plea deal reduced his felonies to misdemeanors, avoiding additional prison time in Utah.
He is currently serving a 27-month federal prison sentence for related charges and will be on supervised probation for five years post-release.
The fraud scheme was uncovered when individuals using Gaulden's vehicle attempted to collect fraudulent prescriptions.
Despite legal troubles, NBA YoungBoy remains a popular artist, with over 16 million monthly listeners on Spotify.
