Pooh Shiesty’s Dad Released on Bond

Lontrell Williams Sr., father of rapper Pooh Shiesty, has been released from federal custody after a Texas judge granted him a $250K bond — a move that overturned earlier detention efforts by prosecutors. The case, centered on an alleged January 2023 robbery and kidnapping of Gucci Mane in Dallas, now heads toward trial with nine defendants, including Pooh Shiesty and Big30, facing life sentences if convicted. The indictment alleges Pooh Shiesty forced Gucci Mane to sign a contract at gunpoint and stole cash and jewelry. A pretrial conference is set for July 1, with trial beginning July 6 — and the legal drama continues as Williams Sr. steps back into public life.
