Considered by some as a socialite, Hushpappi – the once highly entertaining and controversial internet sensation has finally been dealt a long prison sentence after months of a seemingly lethargic legal proceeding.
Hushpappi (Ramon Abass), has been sentenced to 11 years by a US court.
Recall that Hushpuppi was arrested in June 2020 in Dubai over an extensive fraud scheme that has robbed victims of their money in the U.S, Qatar, the United Kingdom, and other places.
He was then extracted to the United States where he was charged with fraud and money laundering, multiple counts of hacking, impersonation, scamming, banking fraud, and identity theft.
Following the sentence on Friday (November 4), Hushpuppi will now spend only nine years in prison as he had already spent two years incarcerated in the US.
