The latest news coming out of Big Freedia’s legal drama is that she’s agreed to attend rehab.
The reality TV star and bounce music artist apparently agreed to the treatment to avoid sitting behind bars pending her sentencing for a federal housing scam that she pled guilty to last March.
Freedia admitted to defrauding the government by stealing nearly $35K in Section 8 benefits despite her financial success as a bounce music artist.
Along with getting substance abuse rehabilitation, Freedia will also have to undergo drug testing as part of the new terms of her bail agreement.
The New Orleans native, whose real name is Freddie Ross Jr., faces ten years in prison and $250,000 in fines for her one count of felony theft.
Currently, the starlet is already paying restitution for her crime. Hopefully, the judge will be lenient in her sentencing scheduled for June 16 in light of her admission of guilt and actions toward repayment for her theft.
