Tay-K’s Legal Issues
Tay-K, born Taymor McIntyre, is already serving 55 years in prison for his role in the 2016 robbery and murder of Ethan Walker in Mansfield, Texas. After initially being arrested for that case in 2016, he was released on bond and infamously cut off his ankle monitor and went on the lam. During this time, he released the viral hit “The Race.” While on the run, police say Tay-K killed 23-year-old Mark Anthony Saldivar during a robbery outside a Chic-fil-A restaurant in San Antonio. Following his sentencing for Walker’s murder in 2019, Tay-K was extradited to San Antonio to face crimes in connection to Saldivar’s killing.
