Does this guy ever stop??

Following his detention in the Dominican Republic on a warrant, Tekashi 6ix9ine found himself behind bars again, as media house TMZ has confirmed. Authorities in Santo Domingo detained the New York-born rapper on Wednesday in connection with a reported domestic violence incident involving his girlfriend, reggae artist Yailin la Mas Viral. The police brought Tekashi into the Palace of Justice in the capital city of the Democratic Republic after he was charged with using physical and psychological assault against Yailin, according to CNN. The Department of General Violence, which deals with cases of domestic abuse, is reportedly looking into the issue.

Without going into specifics, Dominican authorities confirmed Tekashi’s detention on Thursday in a press release. The local police are currently holding Tekashi while he waits for his initial court appearance. As usual, Tekashi has been arrested multiple times for various offences and has been a troublemaker of known reputation. With the regularity with which he gets on the wrong side of the law every time, it’s almost unimaginable to remember that this same Tekashi once turned state witness during his RICO prosecution and collaborated with federal agents, leading to the imprisonment of numerous gang members. This recent arrest adds to Tekashi’s already extensive criminal record and makes you wonder: What next? Despite his previous cooperation with authorities, it seems that trouble continues to follow him. Well, it remains to be seen how this latest incident will impact his legal situation and future.
