Pooh Shiesty (Lontrell D. Williams Jr.) has been locked up in connection with his federal gun case since 2021, with his custody continuing into 2022 when he took his plea and was sentenced.

Quick Scoop

  • Pooh Shiesty was first arrested in connection with a Miami shooting case in October 2020, then arrested again in June 2021 after another shooting incident, which led to his bond being revoked.
  • After the June 2021 arrest, he remained in federal custody while the cases moved forward, so fans generally consider that period in 2021 as when he “got locked up.”
  • In January 2022, he pled guilty to one federal firearm conspiracy count tied to those Miami incidents, and in April 2022 he was formally sentenced to about five years and three months, with credit for time already served since his earlier custody.

Later updates and release news

  • By 2024 and 2025, coverage noted that Pooh Shiesty had been in prison since 2022 and discussed projected early release dates, showing he remained locked up throughout those years.
  • In October 2025, federal inmate records showed he was no longer in Bureau of Prisons custody, indicating he was released earlier than his original projected release window.

So, in simple terms: he’s been locked up since his 2021 custody on the Miami cases, officially sentenced in 2022, and released from federal prison in 2025.
