Nicki Minaj’s husband, Kenneth Petty, has been ordered to serve up to four months of home detention as the result of threatening Offset in a viral social media video.
Nicki Minaj’s Husband Violates Probation With Offset Threats
On Wednesday (Sept. 20), federal judge Michael W. Fitzgerald signed off on an order to place Kenneth Petty under up to 120 days of home confinement due to his part in a recent viral video of multiple men threatening Offset.
“Mr. Petty was recorded on video making threatening remarks towards specific individual while in the company of someone with a criminal record,” the motion, which was obtained by XXL on Thursday (Sept. 21), reads. “The recent violations [of] conduct raises some concerns over Mr. Petty’s willingness to comply with the court’s orders. As such, the probation officers believes placement in the Location Monitoring Program will effectively allow for closer monitoring of Mr. Petty’s activities, limit movements, provide a sanction for his non-compliance and hopefully encourage him to reflect upon and reevaluate his current status in the community.”
“Kenny Petty shall participate for a period of up to 120 days in a home detention program which may include electronic monitoring, GPS, Alcohol Monitoring Unit or automated identification system and shall observe all rules of such program as directed by the probations officer,” the motion continues.
In March of 2020, Petty was indicted for failing to register as a sex offender in California. He struck a deal with prosecutors in August of 2021 and pleaded guilty to failing to register the following month.
XXL has reached out to Nicki Minaj’s team for comment.
