Gunna is set to be released from prison after pleading guilty to racketeering charges, The Shade Room has learned, with his sentence having been commuted to time served.
According to WSB-TV, Gunna pleaded guilty to RICO racketeering conspiracy and gang related charges on Wednesday.
The rapper will reportedly be released from prison at an unspecified date.
Gunna had been caught up in a sweeping gang indictment against him, fellow rapper Young Thug and several other alleged members of the alleged criminal street gang Young Slime Life.
Channel 2 Investigative Reporter Mark Winne reports that Gunna, whose real name is Sergio Kitchens, faced a judge and entered a negotiated plea, known as an Alford plea.
He pleaded guilty on one charge due to it being in his best interest, while still maintaining his innocence on the same charge, according to the outlet.
The charge was one count of conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corruption Act.
The 29-year-old had been sentenced to five years with one year to be served in prison, which was ultimately commuted to time served.
The remaining four years on his sentence is now suspended, and will be subject to special conditions including 500 hours of community service, WSB-TV reports.
The rapper offered a brief statement after receiving the news of his sentencing.
“While I have agreed to always be truthful, I want to make it perfectly clear that I have NOT made any statements, have NOT been interviewed, have NOT cooperated, have NOT agreed to testify or be a witness for or against any party in the case and have absolutely NO intention of being involved in the trial process in any way.”
