Lil Uzi Vert’s alleged assault of his ex-girlfriend and the rapper SAINt JHN in 2021 had the Philadelphia native facing potential jail time on numerous charges. According to TMZ, Uzi won’t be behind bars for his involvement in the case but will have to follow numerous conditions to maintain his freedom.
The rapper struck a plea deal with the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office last week and by pleading no contest, he’ll serve three years of probation, one year in treatment for mental health and substance abuse, 52 weeks in domestic violence counseling, restitution and 10 years under a criminal protective order.
In July 2021, his ex Brittany Byrd filed a police report against him, claiming he struck her at a Los Angeles area restaurant and pressed a gun into her stomach. Byrd was at the Dialog Cafe in West Hollywood with SAINt JHN for a business meeting when Uzi arrived on the scene and exited his vehicle to confront them.
