In March of 2018, he was arrested and charged with first-degree murder, attempted murder, and conspiracy to commit murder. He faced life in prison. Although he was acquitted of his murder and attempted murder charges, the L.A. District attorney refiled charges of criminal gang conspiracy.

This is one of the first interviews he did after being freed from incarceration.
