Rapper Sean Kingston and his mother, Janice Turner, have been found guilty of wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud following a federal trial in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The pair, accused of defrauding luxury retailers and service providers, now await sentencing in July 2025.
The Jamaica-born artist, whose real name is Kisean Anderson, was convicted on multiple counts after a federal jury deliberated for just over three hours. The charges stemmed from a scheme in which Kingston and Turner allegedly used his celebrity status to obtain high-end goods and services without payment, per reports from NBC News.
