Feds Release Images Of Gucci Mane Being Held At Gun Point As Pooh Shiesty Denied Release Again

Pooh Shiesty gets denied bond again as feds release studio images showing Gucci Mane allegedly held at gunpoint in Dallas.

Pooh Shiesty can’t catch a break in court, and the feds just made sure everybody knows why.

Federal prosecutors filed new court documents on June 24 that included still images from surveillance footage showing Gucci Mane allegedly being held at gunpoint inside the Dallas studio where the alleged January robbery took place, and a Dallas judge denied Pooh’s latest bond request on Thursday.

The images included in the government’s opposition to Shiesty’s renewed bid for pretrial release are among the most damning to surface in the case.

One photo allegedly shows Gucci Mane standing beside Pooh Shiesty inside the studio. Another image reportedly captures Shiesty’s father holding the contract Gucci was allegedly forced to sign.

A third frame shows a man prosecutors identify by the initials R.D., which is Gucci’s legal name, Radric Davis, near a figure holding an assault rifle. Prosecutors say Big30 recorded the whole thing on his cellphone as it happened.

The government’s court filing didn’t pull any punches on Shiesty’s character either. According to Fox 13 Memphis, prosecutors wrote that he “leads a Memphis street gang of roughly 100 members” and is “a man who can summon an armed entourage at will.” They also claimed in the filing that he’s personally shot at least two people.

It’s not just the government fighting to keep Pooh locked up. An alleged victim in the case, identified only as C.W. and described as a retired police officer, wrote a letter to the judge requesting that he deny release.

C.W. said he’s been restricting his own kids from playing outside because he’s scared of what Shiesty might do if he gets out, and he cited the rapper’s whole pattern of behavior dating back to a 2020 shooting that eventually sent him away for more than three years.

Defense attorneys on Shiesty’s team have been punching back hard. They filed a 13-page motion on June 11, pointing out that the FBI never recovered the alleged contract, the gun, any of the stolen jewelry, or a recording of the forced signing.

They’ve also noted that Gucci himself went on social media after the incident and denied the robbery ever happened, even showing off the jewelry that was allegedly stolen.

Prosecutors countered that they’re not aware of any formal recantation on record and the judge agreed and decided to keep Pooh Shiesty locked up.

As AllHipHop previously reported, Shiesty’s trial got pushed from July to February 22, 2027, meaning he’s sitting in Kaufman County jail for the long haul while co-defendants Big30 and his own father are both out.

Per Action News 5, Shiesty’s attorneys had proposed 24-hour home confinement with GPS monitoring, supervision by a retired FBI agent and a retired DEA agent, and bond secured by up to eight properties.

The judge said no anyway.

Pooh Shiesty was only six months out of federal prison on a prior firearms conviction when authorities say the January 10 incident went down, which prosecutors have leaned on heavily at every hearing to argue he’s exactly the kind of defendant who can’t be trusted on the outside.
