Rapper Fivio Foreign Pleads Guilty to Third-Degree Terroristic Threats in New Jersey Case

Brooklyn rapper Fivio Foreign, known for his track "City of Gods," pleaded guilty to a third-degree charge of making terroristic threats following a New Year’s Day incident in New Jersey where he allegedly threatened a woman with a gun during a parking dispute. As part of a plea deal, four additional charges, including unlawful possession of a firearm and aggravated assault, are expected to be dismissed. Fivio has been incarcerated since January and his attorney, Adam Lustberg, expressed hope that his time served will be taken into account, potentially leading to probation at his sentencing scheduled for August. The case involved an incident where the woman asked Fivio for a jump-start for her car, and he allegedly responded with a violent threat, an event corroborated by witnesses and surveillance footage. This legal situation has paused Fivio's rising career in the Brooklyn drill scene, but the plea deal may offer him a chance to return to music. Despite his controversial moments, including previous social media posts, the rapper's legal team remains optimistic about a lenient sentencing outcome.
