Rapper Fetty Wap has pleaded guilty in a New York federal court to conspiracy to distribute and possess controlled substances. He now faces a five-year mandatory minimum sentence and remains in custody after his bond was revoked earlier this month.
He was released on a $500,000 bond on Nov. 5, 2021, but was arrested in New Jersey on Aug. 8 on charges that he violated the conditions of his pre-trial release.
The rapper displayed a gun and threatened to kill someone during a Dec. 11, 2021, FaceTime call, according to federal prosecutors. That person the rapper was speaking with was identified in court papers as "John Doe."Evan Agostini/Invision/AP, FILE "... In the call the defendant possessed a gun, threatened to kill him, and called an individual a 'rat,' despite the fact that this was a direct violation of both state law and the conditions of his release," an affidavit sworn by FBI special agent Derek Wonderland said.
The FBI obtained a video recording of the FaceTime call in which Fetty Wap "is shown holding a gun and pointing it towards John Doe," according to the affidavit."The defendant then says to John Doe' Imma kill you and everybody you with,' which he then repeats one more time.
ABC News has reached out to the rapper's representatives but a request for comment was not immediately returned.
