What is G Herbo accused of?

He faced serious accusations along with five other associates, including promotor Antonio Strong. They were accused of engaging in a fraudulent scheme, using stolen identities to amass around $1.5 million in charges. The fraudulent expenses included private jet trips, a luxurious vacation to a villa in Jamaica, and even the purchase of expensive "designer puppies."

The case was filed in Massachusetts because one of the private airline owners involved in the scheme operates from that state. The charges against G Herbo and his associates highlight the severity of their alleged actions, which involved deceitfully obtaining high-end services and luxury items.

According to the plea agreement made public on Wednesday, G Herbo allegedly used the money obtained from the fraudulent activities to enhance his career. He would travel to different concert venues and show off his luxurious lifestyle by posting pictures and videos of himself on private jets, in fancy cars, and at the lavish Jamaican villa.

Moreover, Wright is said to have assisted Antonio Strong in acquiring designer puppies from a business. He pretended to be the one purchasing the puppies while hiding Strong's real identity from the business. This deceitful act aimed to cover up their involvement in the fraudulent scheme and acquire expensive items.

Herbo's legal team is yet to release an official statement regarding his guilty plea or his purported statement about Young Thug.
