6ix9ine’s former manager, Kifano “Shotti” Jordan, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison.
According to Complex, the 37-year-old was sentenced on Friday at Thurgood Marshall Courthouse in Manhattan.
Jordan, a high-ranking member of the infamous Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods, was one of the most prominent figures in 6ix9ine’s racketeering case. He became a social media sensation and helped popularize the word “Treyway.”
Back in March, he pleaded guilty to firearms offenses in connection with a number of crimes committed alongside 6ix9ine and other members of the Nine Trey Bloods. He was charged with using and possessing a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence and discharging a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence.
Jordan once put his former client on blast for snitching. “This n***a, he broke every code and every rule out this motherfu**er,” he said during a phone call from prison. “He’s an ungrateful rat bastard, man. It’s just that simple. But I forgive the little ni**a after all that.”
6ix9ine, who has been behind bars since November on federal racketeering charges, is expected to testify about the kidnapping and assault he claims he fell victim to in 2018. In return for cooperating with the feds, he may be released early.
