Why Was B.G. Sentenced to 14 Years in Prison?
Prior to being sentenced over a decade ago, B.G. pled guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm during a traffic stop in 2009 in the New Orleans East area. Police recovered three firearms in addition to the car being stolen from a rental car parking lot. Geezy’s obstruction of justice charge stems from him urging one of his two associates to falsely claim ownership of the weapon, which he later confessed to.
According to Nola.com, prosecutors made it known that B.G. was not cooperating and was maintaining a “no-snitch” stance.
B.G. was initially due to be released on April 17, 2024.
