Pooh Shiesty went to federal prison for a firearms conspiracy charge tied to a 2020 shooting and drug deal gone wrong in Bay Harbor Islands, Florida, involving guns, marijuana, and codeine.

What He Went to Jail For

  • In October 2020, Pooh Shiesty (Lontrell Williams Jr.) was involved in a deal at a Florida hotel where men were meeting to exchange marijuana, liquid codeine, and high-end sneakers. During that encounter, shots were fired and one man was injured.
  • Federal prosecutors said the incident involved firearms used in connection with violent and drug‑trafficking crimes, which is what ultimately led to the federal case against him.

The Actual Charge and Sentence

  • In January 2022, he pleaded guilty to one federal count: conspiracy to possess a firearm in furtherance of violent and drug‑trafficking crimes , in exchange for other, more serious charges being dropped.
  • In April 2022, he was sentenced to 63 months (about five years and three months) in federal prison, with credit for time served while he was already in custody.

Other Incidents Mentioned in His Case

  • His legal trouble was compounded by a separate 2021 incident in a Miami strip club, where he was accused of shooting a security guard, which helped keep him in custody and added to the overall federal case context, even as some details were later disputed.
  • Overall, the core reason he went to jail was not “lyrics” or “image,” but a federal firearms conspiracy linked to violent and drug‑related conduct.
