The terms of a contract Pooh Shiesty allegedly attempted to have Gucci Mane sign during a robbery have been unveiled.
Federal prosecutors attempting to revoke Shiesty's bond ahead of his federal robbery and kidnapping trial have shared new information about the rapper's alleged involvement.
In addition to sharing surveillance photos of Shiesty allegedly robbing his label boss at gunpoint, prosecutors shared paperwork he is claimed to have tried forcing Gucci to sign.
One of the first points in the alleged contract was that Shiesty be allowed to terminate his record deal immediately with 1017 Records. A second point asked he be released from all obligations under his deal and he be given ownership of his masters and intellectual property, which reportedly is one of the main things that Gucci Mane didn’t want to give up.
Additionally, Shiesty's alleged paperwork was to transfer 1017's approval rights with Atlantic Records to Shiesty directly at his "sole discretion," pointing to the fact that he wants to negotiate with any label to secure another deal.
According to prosecutors, the contract was printed up hours before the robbery happened. At gunpoint, Shiesty allegedly forced Gucci Mane to sign it in hopes that it would be honored in court.
Since that happened, the full scheme of the robbery for which he's accused of was discovered. He and several others allegedly held Gucci Mane at gunpoint, robbed him of $450,000 worth of personal property, and kidnapped him. He's been charged with kidnapping and robbery, along with his father, Lontrell Denell Williams Sr.
Though Shiesty’s associate Big30 (who’s also been charged in connection with the robbery) was given bond and Shiesty’s father has requested it for work reasons, someone described as a "victim and survivor" of the robbery has requested that the rapper remain in jail ahead of the trial.
"His actions show a disregard for the safety and well-being of others," a letter by the "victim" read, according to documents obtained by Complex. "These alleged crimes were committed while he was already under government-monitored release, which raises serious concerns for me about what would prevent him from causing further harm if given another opportunity."
If convicted, Shiesty could face a maximum sentence of life in prison.
