G Herbo Charged With Providing False Information To Federal Agents In Fraud Case

G Herbo Reportedly Charged With Lying To Federal Agents In Fraud Case

Last year, G Herbo was hit with serious charges related to identity theft and fraud. Back in December, the Chicago rapper turned himself in to authorities in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, his legal issues continue to pile up.

He returned to court after the U.S. District Attorney filed another charge against him for lying to federal agents.

According to The Shade Room, Federal documents claim that the rapper had lied about his connection to one of his alleged co-conspirators who, the D.A. claims, is one of Herbo’s friends.

“Herbert Wright III, a/k/a ‘Herb,’ ‘Lil Herb,’ ‘G Herbo,’ and ‘Herbert Light,’ knowingly and willfully made the following materially false, fictitious and fraudulent statements and representations in a matter within the jurisdiction of the executive branch of the Government of the United States, that is, during a voluntary interview with a special agent of the United States Secret Service and a special agent of the (FBI),” the doc reads.

The co-conspirator in question is Antonio Strong who the D.A. says is actually Herbo’s business partner. Prosecutors claim that Herbo informed the FBI that he never received any payments or valued gifts from Strong.

“In truth and in fact, as the defendant knew: (a) since at least 2016, Strong worked with and assisted him; (b) he provided Strong money; (c) he received things of value from Strong, including private jet charters, luxury accommodations, and exotic car rentals; and (d) he had frequent direct contact with Strong, including telephone conversations, text messages, and Instagram direct messages,” the doc continues.
