Rapper Pooh Shiesty Arrested Again After FBI Raid

Rapper Pooh Shiesty, whose real name is Lontrell D. Williams Jr., has been arrested in Dallas, Texas, according to law enforcement sources.

The arrest reportedly connects to a federal criminal investigation, though authorities have not yet publicly confirmed the specific charges.

The arrest came shortly after the FBI raided a family home connected to the rapper as part of the same investigation.

Agents executed both a search warrant and an arrest warrant during the operation.

Officials later confirmed that Shiesty was the primary target taken into custody.

At the same time, Shiesty’s father, Lontrell Williams Sr., was also arrested separately in Memphis, Tennessee.

Authorities have not disclosed whether the cases are directly related or what charges he may face.

The development comes not long after the rapper’s release from federal prison.

Shiesty had served more than five years behind bars following his conviction related to a 2020 Florida shooting case.

His release had marked what many fans viewed as a comeback opportunity for the Memphis-born artist, who gained national attention through collaborations and viral tracks before his incarceration.

Federal officials have scheduled a press conference for 9 a.m. PT, where more details about the arrests and investigation are expected to be released.

Until then, many questions remain unanswered, including whether the new case involves alleged violent crime, financial activity, or other federal violations.

The arrest has already sparked heavy discussion online, with fans and industry observers watching closely for updates about the charges and what the case could mean for the rapper’s career moving forward.

For now, authorities say the investigation remains ongoing.
