Rapper Fetty Wap sentenced to 6 years for drug trafficking
A federal court for the Eastern District of New York handed down a six-year prison sentence to rap star Willie Junior Maxwell II, better known as Fetty Wap, in a high-profile drug trafficking case.
The musician was also sentenced to five years of post-release supervision for his involvement in a conspiracy to distribute cocaine across Long Island and New Jersey.
The sentence comes following the arrest of Fetty Wap’s co-defendant, Anthony Cyntje, a New Jersey correction officer who received a 72-month sentence on March 7, 2023. The four remaining defendants, all pleading guilty, are now awaiting sentencing.
