Budden has been ordered to live a “law biding life.” The case stems from a 2014 arrest when the Slaughterhouse member was accused of beating his ex-lover outside of a restaurant in New York, driving her back to his house in Jersey, and attacking her again.
There were also allegations that Budden choked the woman and stole her cell phone. The plea deal allowed Budden not to be indicted on robbery, grand larceny, and criminal obstruction of breathing.
At the time, Budden taunted and threatened to sue the NYPD after the department announced it was searching for him. The 35-year-old rapper consistently maintained that he never assaulted the woman. He addressed the situation on Twitter.
After 1 year and 7 months, all domestic violence/grand larceny charges against me are dismissed….. God is good.
