NBA YoungBoy Pleads Guilty in Prescription Drug Fraud Case

The latest ruling comes after YB pleaded guilty in a related prescription drug fraud case in Utah. Logan District Judge Spencer Walsh agreed to suspend a prison sentence, citing YB’s previous plea, and ordered the rapper to pay a $25,000 fine.

YB was arrested at his Huntsville, Utah, home back in April and charged in Weber County, Utah, with gun possession and Cache County, Utah, with running a prescription fraud ring out of his home. Authorities say the rapper posed as doctors and used real people’s names and birthdates to call in prescription drugs that his associates would scoop up from area pharmacies. He had firearms in his home when he was arrested.

During the hearing, Judge Walsh implored NBA YoungBoy to take advantage of his promising future after he gets out of prison. “I’m sure that in your future, once you’re done with your federal prison time, you can be really successful on federal probation and have a really bright future where you can reach your full potential in every aspect of your life,” Judge Walsh said.
