Meanwhile, social media users have reacted to the update on Blueface in The Shade Room’s comment section.
As The Shade Room previously reported, Blueface turned himself in to Los Angeles authorities for reportedly violating the terms of his probation in January.
Afterward, TMZ reported that Blue violated “one or more of the terms of his probation” from a September 2021 assault case originating in the city. Then, to make matters worse, in February, the Daily Mail reported that a Las Vegas judge issued an arrest warrant for the rapper.
That warrant was reportedly issued due to Blue’s arrest violating his probation terms reportedly stemming from a 2022 Las Vegas shooting case, per The Shade Room.
At the time, the Las Vegas judge ordered Blueface to him self into authorities there following the close of his release from Los Angeles authorities. However, in July, Blueface appeared in front of the Las Vegas judge via phone, per The Shade Room. The Las Vegas judge reportedly sentenced him to three years of probation with a 2-5 year suspended prison term.
Meanwhile, Blueface’s sentencing on Friday, August 9, marks the rapper receiving his jurisdiction for his Los Angeles probation violation.
