What was Pooh Shiesty sentenced for? Does Pooh Shiesty have 20 years in jail?

Pooh Shiesty, a rapper from Florida, was sentenced to five years and three months in federal prison for a gun charge.

According to court records, Lontrell Williams Jr., 22, was sentenced Wednesday, April 2022, in federal court in Miami.

In January 2022, he pleaded guilty to conspiring to possess firearms in furtherance of violent crimes and drug trafficking. The native of Tennessee faced up to 20 years in prison.

Shiesty’s 20 years sentence was reduced when prosecutors dropped three charges as part of a plea bargain, including a gun charge with a maximum sentence of life in prison. The charges stemmed from three separate incidents, according to court records.

According to officials, Williams was inside a car in Memphis, Tennessee, in July 2020 when an occupant of the car discharged a firearm at a gas station.

Authorities said that three months later, Williams was part of an armed group that shot and injured two people while stealing marijuana, codeine, and high-end sneakers from a hotel in the Miami-area town of Bay Harbor Islands, Florida.

Finally, prosecutors claim that Williams shot and wounded a security guard after a performance at a Miami strip club in May 2021.
