Judge Denies Tekashi 6ix9ine’s Early Release Request Over COVID-19 Fear

Judge Denies 6ix9ine’s Request To Serve Out Prison Sentence At Home

Incarnated New York rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine would come home on the 2nd of August, requiring military-level protection on a permanent basis. According to reports, he will be released early because he’s a perfect model prisoner.

“The reason why he’s getting released early is because he’s the perfect model prisoner,” said Dawn Florio, one of 6ix9ine’s representatives.

But his lawyer has been trying hard to have the rapper released earlier to avoid him getting coronavirus, but a judge rejected the filing. Tekashi must sit behind bars until his August 2 release.

“At the time of sentencing … the Court did not know and could not have known that the final four months of Mr. Hernandez’s sentence would be served at a time of a worldwide pandemic to which persons with asthma, like Mr. Hernandez, have heightened vulnerability,” Englemayer said.

Engelmayer said that legally he cannot change his sentence.

“Had the Court known that sentencing Mr. Hernandez to serve the final four months of his term in a federal prison would have exposed him to a heightened health risk, the Court would have directed that these four months be served instead in home confinement,” the judge, seemingly sympathetic.
