After facing legal woes for not registering as a sex offender after moving to California, Nicki Minaj‘s husband Kenneth Petty has entered a plea regarding criminal charges. Petty will be pleading guilty to one count of failing to register, TMZ reported. Since he agreed to plead guilty, prosecutors will give him a low-level sentence. The charge he is pleading guilty to carries a minimum sentence of five years of supervised release. If Petty would not have taken a plea deal, he would have been facing 10 years in prison along with a lifetime of supervised release.
Back in November 2019, Petty was pulled over by officers from the Beverly Hills Police Department and they found that he was only registered as a sex offender in New York and not California. He was then arrested and released on a $20,000 bond. Petty had been living in California since July 2019.

These troubles are stemming from Petty being convicted of committing a first-degree attempted rape of a then 16-year-old girl in 1995 and serving four years behind bars. His alleged victim, named Jennifer, came forward in January and gave her account of what happened to her after accusing the Petty’s of having people threaten her family. She said that one day while she was on her way to school, Petty, who she knew from the neighborhood, stopped her and asked her where she was going. She told him that she was headed to school and he said he was too. She said he then put a sharp object in her back and forced her to go with him.

“Kenny was a bum. He was a street guy. He was always on the street corner. That’s what I knew him for, a street drug dealer…I had no reason to fear him at the time, I just thought he was annoying. Next thing you know, this n*gga was on up on me. He had something in my back. And he said, ‘Start walking.’ I said ‘Kenny, stop playing.’ He was like I’m serious, start walking.’ I automatically assumed it was a gun. Next thing you know, he pushed a door open. He’s pushing me up the steps. And when I get up in the room, I’m trying to talk him out of stuff. I’m trying to leave and he pushes me down. I’m holding my pants but he’s squeezing the sides of my stomach, really hard. (Through tears) As he’s squeezing me, I had to let go of my pants to get his hands off of me. It was rough going through what I went through with him. It was hell… He was standing in front of the mirror, beating his chest like ‘I’m the man. I’m the man.’ I picked up a bottle and threw it with all my might at his head.”
Aside from this conviction, Petty had also been convicted of first-degree manslaughter and served seven years in prison.

#PapaBear: Nicki Minaj Shares Photos Of Her Baby Boy, Barbz Are Over The Moon
Nicki Minaj and her husband Kenneth Petty are still discovering the joys of new parenthood with their precious baby boy, but they’ve kept the lid on public photos. The Queens rapper graciously shared photos of her son with her legion of fans, and the Barbz are over the moon.
Minaj’s son, lovingly known as Papa Bear, was looking especially fresh with his cute and high-end fashion choices on deck. The baby even has an iced-out Papa Bear chain, which is the only way to be when your mom is one of the top-charting rappers of all time. In a loving message devoted to PB, Minaj also thanked the fans for supporting her motherhood journey and shouted out the moms and moms-to-be.
From Nicki MInaj’s IG:
#PapaBear thank you so very much for choosing me to be your mama Wishing you guys a happy & prosperous New Year. Thank you for your love & support throughout this journey. It’s meant so much to me. Becoming a mom is by far the most fulfilling job I’ve ever taken on. Sending love to all the superhero mothers out there. Big hugs to all the women who have been pregnant during this challenging time.
While the photos of Papa Bear were dropped on Saturday morning (Jan. 2), yesterday Minaj posted a bare-faced 2021 celebratory clip with audio of her lighting up a microphone with the caption, “Yes but can u rlly rap or…” but it isn’t clear who the target of her shade was.
Comparing that quick video of Minaj and next to her son, as the saying goes, it looks he was spat out. Papa Bear has mom’s eyes for sure. And we absolutely love how happy and healthy he looks.
Congratulations again to the Petty family and a strong salute to their beautiful bundle of joy.
We’ve got the excited reactions from the Barbz below.
