Kodak Black Sentenced To Almost Four Years In Prison For Lying On Gun Application

(AllHipHop News) Kodak Black appeared in court today (November 13th), where he was officially sentenced for lying on an application to buy guns.

Kodak Black, real name Bill K. Kapri, will be spending almost four years in prison after he pleaded guilty to making false statements on his federal application to buy three firearms.

The rapper neglected to check the boxes for a background check, which would have indicated that he was a convicted felon.

Kodak maintains he needed the guns for his self-defense because he was being targeted by various gang members.

The judge disagreed and gave the rapper a term of 46 months behind bars.

Kodak’s legal drama unfolded in May when he was detained just before his appearance at Rolling Loud Miami.

The Feds arrested the rapper for trying to buy the guns from Lou’s Police and Security Equipment in Hialeah on two separate occasions.

In addition to leaving out his felonious past, the rapper didn’t mention his pending case for drugs and weapons charges when he tried to re-enter the U.S. from Canada after mistakenly driving into the country in April.
