Why is Cardi B’s husband Offset ‘facing 12 years in prison’? Rapper’s charges, age and net worth – Metro.co.uk

NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
News broke this week that rapper Offset could potentially be facing up to 12 years in prison due to previous firearms convictions.
He also met his dad for the first time in over two decades, posting pictures of the reunion with the caption ‘DREAMS COME TRUE’.
It’s been a whirlwind few years for the Migos star, as he shot to fame, got married to Cardi B, had a baby with her, and became embroiled in a number of scandals.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Bad And Boujee rapper.
Offset was born Kiari Kendrell Cephus on December 14 1991, making him 27 years old.
He started Migos with his cousin Quavo and Quavo’s uncle Takeoff where they grew up together in Gwinnett County outside Atlanta.

Their singles Versace and Bad And Boujee brought them worldwide fame, and they have released two studio albums; one of which reached number one in the US.
The rapper then went on to release solo music, going platinum with Ric Flair Drip,
Offset is a father of four children, and shares Jordan, nine, with Justine Watson and Kody, three, from his relationship with Oriel Jamie. Kalea, also three, was born to mum is Shya L’Amour.
He married Cardi B in September 2017, and their first daughter together, Kulture Kiari Cephus was born in July 2018.
Although the couple have been rocked by a number of cheating allegations – and broke up for a time – they are currently still together.
According to some sources, Offset’s net worth is around $16 million (£12.4 million).
On April 23 this year, Offset faced charges for possession of guns and drugs. The charges date back to July 2018, and refer to when he was pulled over by the Atlanta Police Airport Division for ‘illegally tinted windows’.
When a search of the vehicle the rapper was driving was conducted, police allegedly found the guns and marijuana.
As it’s not the first time he’s been convicted of crime, there are fears that the sentence could be harsh, with criminal defense attorney Alan J Levine teling HollywoodLife.com ‘Focusing on the felony gun possession charge, the simplest scenario is that, if Offset is indeed a convicted felon, and if he did receive, transport or possess a weapon, and if this is his first time doing so as a convicted felon, he could face a one to 10 year sentence that may or may not include time in prison. The Judge can impose a fine of up to $100,000 (£77,000),’
The two other charges of illegally changing lanes as well as possession of marijuana also carry a one-year sentence and $1,000 (£775) each.
However, having pleaded not guilty to the charges, Levine added a ‘sympathetic’ judge could see him avoid prison altogether.
‘Jail is not imminent,’ he continued. ‘Even if he were sentenced for the felony gun possession, the Judge has the discretion to probate or suspend Offset’s sentence.
Offset will appear in court in May.
