\n\tFederal prosecutors are accusing NBA YoungBoy<\/a> (a.k.a. YoungBoy Never Broke Again) of violating the terms of his house arrest by using unspecified drugs \u2014 and of telling his supervising officers that he has \u201cno intentions\u201d of stopping.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a filing Thursday (Feb. 29), prosecutors asked a Louisiana federal judge to set a hearing to deal with the rapper\u2019s \u201cnoncompliant behavior\u201d while he awaits a July trial on federal gun charges. They say he violated a rule forbidding him to \u201cuse or unlawfully possess a narcotic drug or other controlled substance\u201d while under house arrest.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tThe Secret Life, House Arrest and Rebirth of YoungBoy Never Broke\u00a0Again\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n\t\u201cThe undersigned has learned that the defendant has violated [this rule] and has informed his supervising officer that he has no intentions to discontinue using the substance that resulted in the violation,\u201d U.S. Attorney Ronald C. Gathe, Jr.<\/strong> wrote in the filing.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe filing did not specify what drug YoungBoy is accused of using. The rapper\u2019s attorneys did not return a request for comment; they will likely file a formal response to the allegation in the days ahead.<\/p>\n

\n\tYoungBoy was indicted by Louisiana federal prosecutors in March 2021 on charges of \u201cfelon in possession of a firearm\u201d after he was allegedly found with two guns during a September 2020 incident<\/a> in Baton Rouge, La. Possessing guns would be illegal for YoungBoy since the rapper was previously convicted in 2017 of aggravated assault with a firearm.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen he was arrested in Los Angeles<\/a> on those charges, another gun was found in his car, leading to a similar case brought by California federal prosecutors. YoungBoy was acquitted on those charges<\/a> following a July 2022 trial, but he\u2019s still facing a looming trial in Louisiana over the original indictment.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile awaiting trial, YoungBoy has been confined to his Salt Lake City mansion \u2014 a house arrest that has now lasted more than two full years. In October, his attorneys pleaded that the \u201clong period of social isolation\u201d was harming his mental health. They asked that the judge loosen restrictions, including allowing him to travel to a recording studio to create new music. But that request was largely denied in November<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tYoungBoy\u2019s trial is scheduled to kick off on Jul. 15 and is expected to run for two weeks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
