Peewee Longway’s Jewelry Up For Auction

It’s been a tough time for rapper Peewee Longway. Following his arrest in September 2024 on federal drug and gun charges, the rapper has now pleaded guilty. As part of a plea deal, he faces a maximum prison sentence of 14 years. This development comes as federal authorities have begun auctioning off a significant amount of jewelry that was seized during his arrest.

The Plea Deal and Seized Assets

Longway pleaded guilty to Conspiracy to Possess with the Intent to Distribute a Controlled Substance and Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon. Prosecutors had accused him of trafficking drugs through his studio and storing firearms at both his home and studio. The plea deal aims to resolve these serious charges, but it comes with a hefty potential prison sentence.

During the initial arrest nearly two years ago, law enforcement seized a large collection of Longway’s assets, including numerous pieces of jewelry. This haul reportedly included chains, pendants, bracelets, and watches. It’s standard procedure for the government to auction off such seized items once a case has progressed, especially after a guilty plea.

Jewelry Auction Details Emerge

Now that Longway has agreed to the plea deal, the auction process has kicked off. Social media has seen some of the starting bids and prices for these items. For example, a ‘Longway Longway’ pendant is reportedly going for $11,500, while a pendant with ‘diamond simulants’ is listed at a much lower $30. Another intricate pendant has garnered a highest bid of around $7,000.

It’s worth noting that these auctions often include items from multiple cases, so not all pieces necessarily belong solely to Longway. The government typically bundles items together. It remains uncertain if Longway will have the opportunity or the means to reclaim any of these pieces after his release from prison.

Sentencing and Future Outlook

Peewee Longway is expected to receive a sentence between 10 and 14 years. His official sentencing date is set for this summer, on July 9. This marks a significant turning point in the rapper’s career and legal battles.
