Yak Gotti To Be Released From Jail After Three Years

It's been a long and difficult legal battle for Yak Gotti. He was originally arrested in May of 2022 and charged in connection to the YSL RICO case. Now, however, it looks like the worst part will be coming to an end very soon. According to XXL, the Atlanta rapper is scheduled to be released from prison today. This comes after he pleaded guilty to aggravated battery.




The judge sentenced him to 12 years, nine months to serve with credit for time served. Reportedly, he negotiated a plea deal yesterday (April 8), and will now begin five years of supervised release. His attorney Bruce Harvey shared a statement with the outlet about this latest update in his case.

Yak Gotti Legal Issues

"All his other cases have been dismissed or terminated, and there will be no other prosecutions for any alleged conduct while incarcerated," it reads. "It is the height of irony that Yak was acquitted of all conduct related to his alleged Gang and murder charges, and the only conduct for which he has been sentenced is for conduct at the Fulton County jail-the 'most dangerous jail in the United States.'"




Following his release, Yak Gotti will be on probation, and must abide by various conditions. These conditions include not owning a firearm, and not promoting gangs in his music or on social media. In June of 2024, Yak Gotti was hit with various charges including aggravated assault, aggravated battery, and riot in a penal system amid his jail stay. This was due to an incident which saw him and several other men allegedly attack another inmate at the Fulton County Jail. In December of the same year, he was acquitted of his charges related to the RICO case. He remained behind bars over the new charges.
