Desiigner has discovered his fate following the plane masturbation incident he was involved in earlier this year.
TMZ Hip Hop was on hand when the “Panda” rapper officially was sentenced in his indecent exposure case, and the sentence was handed down on Thursday (September 14). The judge ordered Desiigner to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life, and serve two years of probation.

In addition, Desiigner is prohibited from ever possessing a firearm, must perform 120 hours of community service, submit to random drug testing, and must participate in a psychiatric evaluation. If the evaluation determines that the Brooklyn native must undergo extensive psychiatric treatment, he must submit to it without question, or he will be in violation of his probation order.
The sentencing marks the end of a strange case which began all the way back in April, when Desiigner was first charged with indecent exposure.

The “Panda” rapper allegedly exposed himself “multiple” times while seated in the Delta One cabin, and allegedly masturbated during the flight, while he was en route to Japan.
Desiigner was reportedly handed an FAA violation card following the incidents, then moved to the rear of the plane with two travel companions to be monitored. Upon landing, he was detained and interviewed by the FBI.
He was charged in the state of Minnesota, as he was flying outbound from there to Japan.
The rapper then provided a statement to TMZ, in which he claimed his prescription medication was what caused the alleged incident, but that he’d been dealing with mental health struggles for quite some time, and he was finally going to seek help for them.
“For the past few months i have not been ok, and i have been struggling to come to terms with what is going on,” he began. “While overseas for a concert i performed at, i had to be admitted in to a hospital, i was not thinking clearly.”

He continued: “They gave me meds, and i had to hop on a plane home. I am ashamed of my actions that happened on that plane. I landed back to the states, and am admitting my self in a facility to help me. I will be cancelling all of my shows and any obligations until further notice. Mental health is real guys, please pray for me. If you’re [sic] not feeling like yourself please get help.”
