YFN Lucci Is Facing Felony Charges On Top Of Charges
“Everyday We Lit” hitmaker YFN Lucci was named in a massive indictment as one of a dozen gang-related suspects facing a long list of racketeering charges. Lucci’s lawyer says this case and the murder charges his client is facing will not hold up.
Findling said that the murder charge against Bennett, which has since been rolled into the racketeering case against him, will not stick in court. According to Findling, the incident happened when someone shot at Bennett’s car as he was driving with friends. Someone in the back seat defensively returned fire, and in the ensuing exchange of shots, a passenger in the car was killed, Findling said. Because Bennett was the driver, he was charged with felony murder. (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)

YFN Lucci Released W/ Big Restrictions
Lucci was (kind of) free after posting a $500,000 bond back in January. The terms of his release included wearing an ankle monitor, surrendering his passport, and keeping a 7 p.m. curfew. Lucci basically couldn’t leave the house to see anyone except his lawyers and his kids, and couldn’t post on social media.
“The bond was negotiated last week and finalized today. He was released just before 4 pm. There are a variety of conditions which is somewhat consistent with these cases, which included surrendering his passport.” (Drew Findling, Lucci’s lawyer)
YFN Lucci Denied Bond On First Try
Lucci reportedly requested bond so he could be available to support his mother and his four children. In his initial request — which was rejected — the rapper claimed he isn’t a threat to anybody and isn’t at risk of fleeing.
YFN Lucci‘s hoping to get out of lockup to take care of his kids and his mom … even though he’s facing some serious charges for his alleged role in a homicide. According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ … the rapper’s asking the judge to set a reasonable bond because he has “four underaged children whom he financially supports.” YFN also claims to provide a home and money for his mother living in Fulton County, GA.
