Shmurda was facing a life sentence, after a government sting caught him and members of his GS9 street gang engaging in a host of criminal behavior. GS9 are affiliated with the Crips street gang of Los Angeles (G Stone Crips). Shmurda and GS9 were formally accused in court papers of drug trafficking and the murder of a rival gang member. Shmurda and his friends need to do their time, try to stay out of trouble while incarcerated, come out of prison and live clean lives.

Side Bar: People, leave that life of crime alone. Sooner or later it will catch up to you in some form or another. It is not worth it.
