Desiigner may be facing more trouble in his recent indecent exposure case stemming from an April flight from Japan back home to the States.
According to a report from TMZ on Thursday (August 10), the “Panda” rapper is at risk of jail time after allegedly admitting to breaking the terms of his pretrial release. In documents obtained by the outlet, Desiigner’s probation officer told the court the rapper admitted to using marijuana and then failed to show up for drug testing in July.
He also claiming that Desiigner has yet to verify that he’s attended the required counseling sessions, nor has he signed his co-payment agreement for drug testing. He also allegedly failed to supply a P.O. Box address to the probation department.
The PO is now asking the judge to see if his pretrial release should be revoked, but the judge has yet to rule.
As previously reported, Desiigner was charged with indecent exposure after he allegedly exposed himself “multiple” times while seated in the Delta One cabin on a flight – and masturbated during one of them. He 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.
The 26-year-old provided a statement to TMZ following the incident, in which he claimed his prescription medication was what caused everything to go down – but that he’d also been dealing with mental health struggles for quite some time and was finally going to seek help for them.
A charge of indecent exposure on an aircraft is a misdemeanor that’s punishable by up to 90 days behind bars and a $500 fine if convicted. The Brooklyn native will have a court date in the near future, but a date has not yet been set.
Shortly after the incident, Desiigner announced he was admitting himself into a mental health facility on what also served as his 26th birthday.
“I turned 26 today and i want to thank ya’ll for holding me down,” he wrote on May 3. “I admitted myself into a facility last week to focus on my mental health. But before that i had planned to release TIIMMY TURNER 2 this week as a surprise to my fans. I recorded this joint a while ago and it reflects on where i’ve been mentally over the past year.
“Sorry i can’t promote it the way i like to cause i’m off the grid, but i just want to give you some new music while i take time away to become a better me. I’m going through a tough time right now but i won’t let my struggles define who i am. I will come back stronger and make more music that connects with all of you on a deeper level.”
He continued: “For those of you dealing with any mental health issues, it’s okay to ask for help.”
If the meds i’m on causes me to masturbate in public im definitely going to stop taking them.
Desiigner is quite the person. The only human born with a naturally autotuned voice. Never understood why he posted that video of his ugly ass mug crying over Offset. Just some things that aren’t meant to share with the world. Like when im in bed with chicks, not into recording or any of that bc im real ugly when I fuck you know? Private moments you don’t share. Plus i dont trust the cloud. Delete those X rated pics from your phones my peeps. I know this sounds like random gibberish, but this is the same guy who jerks off in airplanes. Snakes on a Plane is a classic bad-cinema flick that does not need a remake.
