Late last month, we shared the news that YFN Lucci's parole date was pushed back to January 2026, but there's a good chance he'll be getting out a lot sooner.
Yesterday, Lucci's attorney Drew Findling said Fulton County's District Attorney Fani Willis gave a letter to the State Board of Pardons and Paroles about the rapper being released early.
"The District Attorney of Fulton County did the unorthodox," Findling told WSB-TV.
Findling went on to say that he's trying to get Lucci out now, but it's very possible he won't be released until January 2025.
Willis wrote the letter on June 11, and said she's okay with Lucci's early release, as long as he kept his nose clean while behind bars.
"Pursuant to the parties' negotiated agreement, the State does not object to Defendant, Rayshawn Bennett being released from Department of Corrections the first time he becomes eligible for parole or after serving one-third of his prison sentence, whichever comes first," reads the letter, which shows Lucci's real name.
"This recommendation by the State is conditioned upon the Defendant’s compliance with the lawful authority of all Department of Corrections personnel and having had no incidents of any kind in any facility in which he has been housed while in the custody of the Department of Corrections," Willis also stated.
Lucci pleaded guilty to one count of violating the Street Gang and Terrorism Prevention Act in January and was hit with 10 years of prison time and 10 years of probation.
All of this stems from a man named James Adams being shot to death in a vehicle that Lucci was driving in 2020.
