Pooh Shiesty’s Dad Faces Bond Revocation

The legal troubles surrounding rapper Pooh Shiesty and his associates continue to escalate. Following his own arrest last week, attention has now turned to his father, Lontrell Williams Sr., as prosecutors are actively pushing to have his bond revoked and send him back behind bars while awaiting trial.

Allegations of Kidnapping and Robbery

Both Pooh Shiesty and his father were reportedly arrested in connection with an alleged robbery and kidnapping involving Gucci Mane. Authorities claim that Pooh Shiesty, along with his crew, orchestrated a “coordinated armed takeover” in an attempt to force Gucci Mane to release him from his 1017 label contract.

The accusations are serious: it’s alleged that Pooh Shiesty held a gun to Gucci Mane’s head while Big30 blocked the exit, compelling the label head to sign a release. Lontrell Williams Sr. is also implicated in the alleged crime.

Bond Revocation Push

While Lontrell Williams Sr. was initially granted a $250,000 bond, with a $25,000 cash deposit, prosecutors are not letting up. According to Action News 5, they are arguing that Williams Sr. poses a significant flight risk and are formally moving to revoke his bond. The federal government is expected to file its official motion on April 13.

This move comes as Pooh Shiesty himself faces a potential life sentence if convicted of the charges. His lawyer, Bradford Cohen, has stated they are still evaluating the evidence, noting a perceived gap between the government’s claims and the actual proof. Cohen is preparing for Pooh Shiesty’s upcoming bond hearing.

A History of Legal Battles

These recent arrests add to Pooh Shiesty’s ongoing legal challenges. He was released from prison in 2025 after serving approximately three years for a 2022 robbery and shooting incident. He had pleaded guilty to a charge related to that event and was released early for good behavior.

The situation highlights the intense scrutiny and legal pressures faced by artists involved in the music industry, particularly when allegations of serious crimes surface. The outcome of these proceedings will undoubtedly have significant implications for both Pooh Shiesty and his father.
