YFN Lucci's attorney confirms imprisoned rapper is still alive amid death rumors

As a seasoned movie buff with a knack for deciphering truth from fiction, I can confidently say that the rumors of YFN Lucci’s demise were indeed premature. With my years of experience in navigating the tumultuous world of celebrity gossip and crime dramas, I’ve learned to separate fact from fantasy, especially when it comes to tales spun by the social media mill.


It’s been verified by his attorney that YFN Lucci is in good health and still alive, despite speculations about his demise while in prison, as reported by The Times.

33-year-old rapper Rayshawn Lamar Bennett admitted guilt to a gang-related offense in January, following negotiations with prosecutors. This came more than three years after he was initially indicted on murder, gang, and racketeering charges in Atlanta. Currently, he is serving a 10-year prison term for these crimes.

This week, a false claim that the rapper known as “Documentary” had been killed circulated on social media. However, Drew Findling, who was his lawyer during the RICO trial, has since debunked this rumor, with TMZ being the first to report it. In the past, Findling had also defended former President Donald Trump in a case regarding election interference in Georgia, but another attorney eventually took over for reasons that remain undisclosed.

Two weeks following the demise of YFN Lucci’s former label companion Rich Homie Quan (both aged 33), who was discovered deceased in his Atlanta residence, the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office has yet to reveal the reason behind the “Lifestyle” rapper’s passing.

In a May 2021 indictment, YFN Lucci was one of several individuals accused of being members of the Bloods gang. Before this, he had been charged with murder; authorities claimed he was the driver in a shooting that was related to gang activity and resulted in the death of 28-year-old James Adams, as reported by Rolling Stone.

In accordance with a plea agreement, 12 out of 13 charges against YFN Lucci were dismissed, and he admitted guilt for one count that involved violating the Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act. He was given a sentence of 10 years on parole in addition to his prison term. However, due to a letter submitted by the District Attorney of Fulton County to the State Board of Pardons and Paroles in July, there’s a possibility that Lucci could be considered for early release from prison as early as January 2025.

In simpler terms, “The District Attorney of Fulton County acted unusually,” Findling said to WSB-TV in Atlanta. “That letter from the district attorney carries significant weight and is essentially the focus of the letter, additional documents, and the memorandum we’ve submitted to the parole board.

As a film enthusiast, I found myself stunned by the shocking turn of events involving rapper YFN Lucci. In February 2022, while serving time, he was unfortunately stabbed. Subsequently, three members of his YSL collective faced charges for attempted murder, as detailed in an indictment from May 2022. This unexpected plot twist has undeniably cast a shadow over the rap community and left many fans anxious for updates.

In light of the recent altercation, I, as an ardent film of justice enthusiast, can confirm that my client has made it clear they have no interest in striking a cooperation deal and will not be testifying against Young Thug in the ongoing racketeering trial. The court will decide if this renowned rapper is indeed a significant figure in the criminal street gang, Young Slime Life (YSL). It’s been reported by The Times that this Atlanta-based group is said to have ties with the national Bloods gang.

The YSL trial commenced in November but has faced multiple postponements due to various reasons such as judge rotation, a breach of confidentiality involving one juror’s identity being leaked online, and the unfortunate incident where co-defendant Shannon Jackson, also recognized as Shannon Stillwell, was stabbed.

In their repeated statements, defense lawyers have expressed worries about the prolonged duration of the trial. Meanwhile, Fulton County prosecutors are yet to testify over a hundred witnesses as per the latest report from Atlanta News First on Wednesday.
