Blueface gets a break in prison sentence

A judge in Sin City imposed the sentence on Blue after he violated probation in connection with the October 2022 shooting. Hot97 Blueface, born Johnathan Porter, attended the hearing in Las Vegas on June 24 by phone, the Associated Press reported.

Based on 8Current newsClark County District Court Judge Kathleen Delaney sentenced him to three years of probation and suspended his prison sentence from two to five years. To put that in perspective, this means the Los Angeles artist will not have to serve any jail time if he chooses to comply with Delaney’s conditions.

8NewsNow revealed that Judge Delaney also imposed a 30-day jail sentence on the rapper, but gave him credit for time already served because he is currently in custody in a separate case in California. Although Blue was given a slight reprieve, he must adhere to strict probation conditions.

According to 8NewsNow, the musician must stay away from drugs and alcohol, stay off the Las Vegas Strip, attend counseling, have no contact with the shooting victim, maintain a full-time job, abide by a curfew, report to parole, and be allowed access to his social media and social media.

Judge Delaney also gave Blueface a stern warning regarding weapons.

“If you get caught doing that, you’re going to be brought back here for any kind of probation violation, especially anything involving a weapon, I wouldn’t hesitate to put you in jail for a significant amount of time. You’re playing with your freedom, obviously your life. But you’re playing with your freedom if you’re going to possess a gun and do anything that violates your probation in that regard,” Delaney explained.

Social Media Reacts to Rapper

Shade Room Instagram Report has sparked a lot of reactions from commenters, including Blueface’s mother, Karlissa Saffold, who wrote, “To all the real mothers! Please pray for me ❤️”

Instagram user @sauccyy.delly wrote, “Oh no, they’re about to terrorize our timeline again.”

Instagram user @mastermindcamryn wrote, “We actually left him and Chrisean in 2023.”

While Instagram user @la_ni_sh wrote, “Can they add social media to his probation 🥴”

Then Instagram user @youcan_this wrote, “The internet is so boring without him, can’t lie 😭”

Another Instagram user @r0832t wrote, “All of his lawyers were shocked by the judge’s decision 😂”

Finally Instagram user @just_us_seasonings wrote, “Now sit down somewhere and act like you know something.”

Here’s Why Blueface Is Behind Bars

As The Shade Room previously reported, Blueface surrendered to Los Angeles authorities on January 12 for allegedly violating his probation. TMZ later revealed that Blueface had violated “one or more terms of his probation” in a September 2021 attack in Los Angeles but did not specify the nature of the violation.

On February 1, the Daily Mail reported that a Las Vegas judge had issued an arrest warrant for Blueface for violating his probation in connection with the 2022 shooting. The judge ordered him to turn himself in to Las Vegas authorities after his release from Los Angeles.

According to Hot 97, Blueface’s attorney confirmed his cooperation with law enforcement and his commitment to focusing on his career. The outlet reported that he is scheduled to appear in court in Los Angeles on July 29. Although his release date is still unclear, his family is hopeful that he will be back soon.
