The Shade Room has learned that Yaya Mayweather has changed her plea in her assault with a deadly weapon case that occurred in 2020.
According to documents exclusively obtained by The Shade Room, the mother of one appeared in a Houston court on Monday, and has changed her plea from guilty to NOLO CONTENDERE (no contest). This plea allows defendants to accept the criminal punishment but not admit guilt.
According to a source with direct knowledge of the situation, she is due to be back in court in December and six years of probation has been recommended.
The 21-year-old pleaded guilty back in April for stabbing Lapattra Lashai Jacobs, ex-girlfriend to rapper NBA Young Boy, TSR exclusively learned.
In April 2020, Jacobs was at NBA Youngboy’s home when the daughter of the famous boxer appeared. The women began to exchange words when Yaya grabbed two knives and stabbed Jacobs. On Wednesday, Yaya pleaded guilty to the crime.
Since the incident, Yaya hasn’t stopped championing NBA YoungBoy, the father of her one-year-old son, Kentrell Jr. Witnesses have seen Yaya in clubs rapping endlessly to his songs, posting cryptic messages on Instagram, all while he is in a relationship with Jazlyn Mychelle and the couple now has two kids.
While COVID prolonged the case, Jacobs spoke about her relationship with NBA YoungBoy back in 2020.
During an IG live, she insinuated that NBA YoungBoy doesn’t take his relationships too seriously because of his younger age.
He’s still young so he ain’t ready to settle down. In my mind, and I know ‘cause I’m older than him, so I know a young person not ready to settle down. Really not ready to settle down like actually settle down.
Jacobs also discussed her past relationship with YB. Allegedly, it ultimately ended due to her alleged fight with Yaya Mayweather.
Like, we still would have been low-key if this s**t wouldn’t have happened to me.
