Strategy KI has been found guilty of a wide sundry of charges, including GBH (grievous bodily harm), by a British court of law.
According to HipHopSince1987, the rapper — who recently collaborated with Boosie Badazz on a track called “No Trust” — had the verdict handed down in a Chichester Crown Court on Thursday (July 15).
One of the charges he was found guilty of was “affray,” which is used to describe “a disturbance involving violence or the threat of violence, to the extent of which another person of ‘reasonable firmness’ (referring to the average person) present at the scene would fear for their safety,” per Britton & Time Solicitors.
Strategy KI was also found guilty of criminal damage (similar to property damage in the United States, except British law makes no exception for intentionality save for “without lawful excuse”), and GBH (or, grievous bodily harm, which is the most serious form of battery short of attempted murder in British courts).
Of the three charges, GBH carries the strictest penalty, with varying degrees of punishment. For example, the maximum penalty for GBH on its own carries a five year maximum sentence, with the potential for two more years to be added if the crime had a racial or religious motive. But if the GBH was carried out with the intent to cause harm, then the maximum sentence is life in prison, per the British sentencing council.
