According to WSB-TV, the Atlanta rapper (real name Rayshawn Bennett) was sentenced to 20 years in prison on Tuesday (January 23) but will serve 10.
Lucci, 32, pleaded guilty to one count of violation of the Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act. He was initially facing numerous felony charges, including murder, which carried a maximum sentence of life without parole.
As part of his plea deal, Lucci is expected to get credit for time served, which began when he surrendered to authorities in January 2021.
The State has also agreed to write a letter to the pardon and parole board saying they will not object to his early release.
Prior to receiving his sentence, Lucci reportedly apologized to the murder victim’s family, as well as his own family and friends.
The “Everyday We Lit” rapper was among a dozen suspects indicted in a sprawling 105-count racketeering indictment against his YFN collective, which prosecutors allege is a faction of the Bloods gang.
Lucci was initially arrested over a December 2020 shooting in Atlanta that killed a 28-year-old man and injured another man. Prosecutors told the judge during the trial that he was the driver and didn’t fire the deadly shots.
