Looks like Pooh Sheisty's feds case just took a turn for the worst! Pooh Shiesty, born Lontrell Williams, has been indicted on several federal charges in connection to a shooting incident in the Miami-Dade county back in October of 2020.
Pooh Sheisty's federal charges included Conspiracy to Possess Firearms in Furtherance of Violent Crime, Hobbs Act Robbery Conspiracy and Discharging a Firearm in Furtherance of a Crime of Violence on June 25. These charges carry a maximum of 20 years yet a possible life sentence for Discharging a Firearm in Furtherance of a Crime of Violence.
Two other men, Bobby Brown and Jayden Darosa, are facing the same charges as the Memphis rapper.
The probable cause affidavit filed on June 3 and now unsealed, Pooh Shiesty, Brown, and Darosa are accused of participating in a robbery in the parking lot of the Landon Hotel, located at 9700 East Bay Harbor Drive in Bay Harbor Islands, Fla., on Oct. 9, 2020, at around 1:50 p.m. that led to two individuals being shot.
Video footage of the incident went viral in January this year as Pooh was spotted driving a bright green McLaren sports car moments before the shooting.
The court filings state that Brown rode in the passenger seat with Pooh while Darosa drove a separate black Mercedes Maybach. The men were meeting up with two other individuals to purchase high-end sneakers and weed. Pooh Shiesty also so happened to rent his vehicle from one of these men and was hoping to get an extension on his rental. However, things took a turn and the two men sustained individual gunshot wounds to the hip and butt.
Surveillance footage from the incident also caught a Louis Vuitton bag falling out of the driver's seat of the McLaren as Pooh fled the scene after the shooting. Police later recovered the bag, which contained $40,912.
The court filing also noted that on Pooh Shiesty's official Instagram account, photos were uploaded to his account showing several long rifles and $100 bills prior to the October of 2020 shooting incident. One of the $100 bills had a serial number of "L873066478J," which matched one of the $100 bills found in the Louis Vuitton bag that was recovered by police.
The affidavit also claims there were tagged images on Pooh's Instagram account of him posing with a green McLaren, similar to the one he was driving on the day of the shooting. Pooh's co-defendant Darosa also had photos of a Draco firearm, like the one Pooh Shiesty used, on his Instagram page.
