SleazyWorld Go faces a life-altering legal moment after a federal jury found the 28-year-old Kansas City rapper guilty of being a felon in possession of a firearm. With a prior armed robbery conviction in Michigan from 2016, he was legally prohibited from owning weapons. Despite that restriction, he frequently showcased firearms across social media. In fact, he appeared in over 30 posts over two years.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) began investigating in June 2022 following an anonymous tip that prompted a review of his online activity. The inquiry went beyond photos. On October 19, 2022, agents observed SleazyWorld Go handling a black pistol near a vehicle at a Kansas City, Kansas, townhome complex. Additionally, a search of his vehicle later revealed four firearms, prompting an August 2023 indictment.
The charges initially included felon-in-possession and machine gun violations, among others. At trial, the jury convicted him only on the felon-in-possession count involving a Romarm/Cugir 7.62x39mm pistol. However, they acquitted him of the machine gun charge and additional serious allegations.
Attorneys Plan Appeals Ahead of SleazyWorld Go’s Sentencing
His attorneys released a statement recognizing the jury’s verdict while signaling plans to pursue post-trial motions. “We acknowledge the verdict and the judicial process,” they wrote. “We emphasize our client’s focus on family, business ventures, and community involvement, and we will explore every available legal avenue to challenge this conviction.”
Sentencing is scheduled for June 30, 2026, with federal guidelines allowing up to 15 years’ imprisonment. SleazyWorld Go’s legal team has already indicated they intend to exhaust appellate options. They aim to overturn the conviction and safeguard their future.
