Blueface, born Jonathan Jamall Porter, was sentenced to a maximum of three years probation after pleading guilty to reducing the charges against him to battery and discharging a firearm at or into an occupied structure.
"He has the ability to earn a reduction to a gross misdemeanor charge upon successful completion of his probation," said Kristina Wildeveld, the rapper's lawyer.
"He is ultimately just looking forward to getting back to focusing on his music career and moving forward with his life."
Blueface was arrested in 2022 for opening fire outside a strip club in Las Vegas after an argument ensued between himself and a man identified as Kentavious Traylor.
He was brought to the Clark Country Detention Center with the following charges: attempted murder with a deadly weapon and discharging a firearm at or in an occupied vehicle.
Blueface's Victim Shares Selfie
According to reports, following the sentencing, Traylor took a selfie with Blueface and his legal team behind him.
However, at the back, it was clearly shown that the baby-momma of the "Thotiana" rapper flipped her middle finger for the camera.
Netizens could not help but chuckle at the picture, "everything about this picture is crazy. I can't even have a cell phone in traffic court. Was Zeus there filming?"
"No it's them allowing him to take selfies and pix for me," another added.
Blueface's String of Legal Battles
According to reports, this is not the only crime the rapper has committed recently. Apparently, he was also arrested and is facing a felony charge of robbery.
"We are hopeful we can quickly resolve this for him to everyone's satisfaction along with his current charges," said his lawyer regarding the incident.
Blueface rose to prominence in 2017 after he went viral on SoundCloud. His most popular releases are "Thotiana" and "Next Big Thing."
He signed a record deal with Cash Money Records' affiliate Cash Money West, and became pals with other prominent rappers like Drake, Quavo, and more.
Aside from music, Blueface is also into boxing. The rapper joined the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship in 2021 and won against Trujillo. However, unlike his music career, the rapper's boxing career is not as big and he has not been focusing on the sport-or music releases, for that matter, in the past several years.
