Pras
Sentenced To 14 Years In The Slammer
Published
Fugees member Pras Michél has been hit with a 14-year prison sentence … handed down after his conviction on conspiracy and illegal foreign lobbying charges.
The verdict came down Thursday in a D.C. federal court — slapping Pras with three years of probation on top of his 14-year stint. He already got hit last month with a massive $64 million forfeiture tied to the alleged scheme.
The hip hop lyricist got slapped with 10 guilty counts back in April 2023 — everything from messing with campaign finance laws during Obama’s 2012 run to allegedly cozying up with the Trump administration in 2017.
Basically, it’s the worst-case scenario for Pras … especially since he told TMZ Hip Hop he and his team were crossing their fingers for a pardon from Trump himself.
Pras is now set to turn himself in on January 27.
