Rapper Fetty Wap, born Willie Junior Maxwell II, walked out of federal prison this week after serving three years of a six-year sentence for drug trafficking.
The 34-year-old rapper's release marks a dramatic turn in a story that saw him plummet from earning millions with chart-topping hits to smuggling cocaine and heroin across state lines. Maxwell's legal team said his downfall was driven by financial pressure, made worse by the Covid-19 pandemic and the hit it dealt to his income.
