Rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine Faces Further Consequences for Troubled Behavior
In a latest blow to the embattled rapper, Tekashi 6ix9ine has been sentenced to three months in prison after violating his probation, the second time this year he's found himself behind bars. The ruling comes on the heels of two incidents that led to Hernandez's supervision being revoked: in March, police discovered small amounts of cocaine and ecstasy during a raid at his Miami home, while five months later, he was involved in an altercation at a Florida mall where he punched a man who had been taunting him.
The judge overseeing the case expressed frustration with Hernandez's actions, saying they "suggest that you believe ordinary rules don't apply to you." As part of his sentence, Hernandez is required to report to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn on January 6, 2026. This marks the second time he's been ordered back to prison for probation violations since entering into a plea deal in a federal racketeering and firearms case.
Hernandez first pleaded guilty to nine charges related to his involvement with the Nine Trey Bloods gang in 2019, admitting to ordering a member to shoot at rival rapper Chief Keef. Since then, he's faced numerous other legal issues, including a claim that his Florida home was robbed while he was away. His mother reportedly claimed she was held hostage by masked men who ransacked the property.
The sentence is part of a long list of consequences Hernandez has faced over the past nearly decade, demonstrating a pattern of behavior that suggests a disregard for the law and a lack of accountability. As the court's ruling makes clear, his actions will continue to have serious repercussions on his life until he demonstrates a commitment to changing his ways.
