Sale temps pour 6ix9ine, après le flop de son album TattleTales, et avoir fait une overdose de caféine et de pilules amaigrissantes (ça ne s’invente pas), on apprend qu’un de ses anciens chauffeurs a été informateur pour le compte du FBI.
Jorge Rivera, c’est son nom, était un des anciens chauffeurs du rappeur de Brooklyn, il a été inculpé dans l’affaire de racket dont son ancien patron était mêlé ainsi que son gang, le Nine Trey Bloods. Le chauffeur a été placé en probation, ce qui lui a évité une peine de prison.
Néanmoins, les procureurs fédéraux ont révélé que Rivera coopérait avec le FBI depuis plus d’un an, selon VladTV. Rivera avait augmenté sa coopération avec le bureau fédéral après son arrestation et son expulsion par les services de l’émigration américaine.

Story via @vladtv - Jorge Rivera, the former driver to #6ix9ine and confidential FBI informant, was sentenced to two years of federal probation this week, avoiding any additional jail time. In 2019, Rivera was brought up on racketeering charges alongside 6ix9ine, Shotti, and 10 other members and associates of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods. But federal prosecutors eventually revealed that Rivera had been working with the FBI for over a year before the arrests were made.

After he picked up an immigration charge two months later, Rivera agreed to act as a confidential informant. From April-July 2018, he notified his case agents of multiple robberies and shootings. On another occasion, he told the FBI about a gun in a vehicle, and the agents retrieved it by staging a car break-in, prosecutors said. On July 21, he notified authorities when he saw several Nine Trey members arming themselves at a concert in New York, resulting in the concert being shut down. When 6ix9ine was kidnapped the next day, Rivera alerted authorities and provided video footage from the incident. He later testified against Ellison, who was convicted and is still awaiting sentence.
