Pooh Shiesty’s father has reportedly been placed on house arrest following the alleged kidnapping and robbery of Gucci Mane.
According to Fox 13 Memphis, during a court hearing on Friday (April 3), Lontrell Williams Sr. was given a $250,000 bond and put on house arrest. Williams is reportedly only allowed to travel to and from court dates in Dallas.
With home incarceration being the strictest possible bond outside of being placed in federal custody, Williams will additionally receive electronic monitoring.
Four other defendants were also reportedly placed on detention during the hearing, including Memphis rapper Big30 (real name Rodney Wright Jr.), who allegedly recorded the January incident.
It's alleged that Williams Sr. was present in a Dallas recording studio with Shiesty, Wright and three others while overseeing the "Back In Blood" artist being released from his label contract with the Gucci Mane-founded 1017 Records.
Shiesty (real name Lontrell Williams Jr.) is said to have been wearing "a black Nike brand 'shiesty' mask, black hooded shirt, and black pants" during the alleged altercation.
It's claimed that Shiesty gave Gucci (real name Radric Davis) paperwork to terminate his contract, to which the rapper and music executive allegedly declined. An argument took place, during which Gucci was allegedly held at gunpoint by two suspects, Kordae Johnson and Darrion McDaniel, the latter of whom is accused of stealing jewelry from the victim.
"Instead of discussing business in a civil matter, the defendants resorted to violence and intimidation to achieve their purported business objectives," stated United States Attorney for the Northern District of Texas, Ryan Raybould. "For anyone contemplating using violence and intimidation as a business practice, I'm here to tell you that it will be vigorously investigated and prosecuted in the Northern District of Texas."
Shiesty, who signed to 1017 Records in a joint partnership with Atlantic in 2020, was released from prison in October 2025 after serving three years for federal conspiracy. As early as January, Yo Gotti reportedly showed interest in signing the rapper to a deal with CMG Records. If convicted the rapper could receive life imprisonment.
