G Herbo has agreed to enter a guilty plea in his federal wire fraud case.
The rapper, along with five of his associates are accused of using stolen credit cards and IDs to make personal purchases that amounted to around $1.5 million.
Herbo, real name Herbert Wright is set to plead guilty this month formally and is facing up to 20 years in prison.
Accepting the guilty plea means his sentence will likely be less harsh.
“Wright used the proceeds of these frauds to travel to various concert venues and to advance his career by posting photographs and/or videos of himself on the private jets, in the exotic cars, and at the Jamaican villa,” part of the plea deal reads. “In addition, Wright helped Strong obtain designer puppies from a business by falsely representing to the business that Wright was the actual purchaser of the puppies and by concealing Strong’s actual identity from the business.”
