    Tekashi 6ix9ine Violated His Probation Again — This Time by Assaulting Someone in a Mall

    Tekashi 6ix9ine has pled guilty yet again to breaching the plea deal he secured by testifying against his former Brooklyn gangmates, marking his third violation of supervised release in less than a year.

    The rapper copped to the violation during a Thursday (Sept. 25) hearing in New York federal court. According to prosecutors, Tekashi (Daniel Hernandez) admitted that he attacked a man in a Florida mall last month after the man taunted him for flipping on his crew in return for leniency back in 2018.

    The assault, a misdemeanor, runs afoul of rules that ban criminal offenders from violating the law again during their period of so-called supervised release. The 29-year-old rapper has repeatedly violated his supervised release in the last year, and Judge Paul A. Engelmayer ordered him to remain under house arrest until a final sentencing hearing on the violations in November, according to prosecutors.

    Tekashi’s lawyer did not immediately return a request for comment on Thursday.

    Once a rising hip-hop star, Tekashi was charged in 2018 with helping the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods gang as they “wreaked havoc on New York City.” But he quickly cut a deal with prosecutors to flip on his gangmates in exchange for leniency.

    Under the terms of that deal, Tekashi was sentenced to just two years in prison and five years of supervised release. The rapper was released even earlier due to health risks associated with his asthma during the COVID-19 pandemic, and he began serving supervised release in 2020.

    With just months left on the five-year supervised release, Tekashi was charged last November with committing a host of violations, including methamphetamine usage, failing to appear for drug tests and traveling to Las Vegas without permission.

    Tekashi admitted to these violations, and Judge Engelmayer sentenced him to 45 days in jail plus another year of supervised release. Federal officers then found illegal drugs in his Miami home after he got out, and he pled guilty in July to another violation for possessing cocaine and MDMA.

    The rapper was awaiting sentencing on the second violation when the Florida mall assault occurred in August.  He’s due back in court on Nov. 4.
