Young Buck Pleads Guilty in Tennessee, Receives 8-Year Community Corrections Sentence

The deal resolves a nearly six-year case stemming from a 2020 domestic incident.

Overview

  • The rapper pleaded guilty in Sumner County to a felony gun charge and domestic assault tied to a 2020 altercation.
  • He received an eight-year sentence with 30 percent suspended, equating to roughly 2.4 years served through community corrections rather than in prison.
  • Special conditions require an alcohol and drug assessment within 60 days, no violent contact with Lucresia Neal, forfeiture of seized property and weapons, and reporting to community corrections.
  • The court credited him for time served from April 7 to May 7, 2025, after a 30-day jailing for repeated bond violations.
  • Court records say his then-girlfriend allegedly shot at him during the 2020 incident, and the prolonged case saw multiple delays and a public protest in 2025.
