Earlier today, Blueface appeared in court for a sentencing hearing, where the judge sentenced him to four years in prison. The “Thotiana” rapper’s father shared the sad news with fans on Instagram, expressing his disappointment at the verdict. Blueface first turned himself in in January for allegedly violating his probation and has been in jail since then.
Fans and loved ones hoped this sentencing hearing would mark the end of Blueface’s incarceration, but apparently, they didn’t get the news they wanted. His mother, Karlissa Saffold, even told TMZ last month that she was planning a welcome home party for his return. Now, she’s taking to Instagram to update fans on the situation and weigh in on the verdict.
Carissa Safford thanks fans for their support
“I want to stand here and thank you all for all the love and all the support and all the prayers today. I see all the prayers and I thank you so much,” she said through tears. “I don’t want you to think God didn’t show up today, because He did, and if you were in court and you heard Jonathan take responsibility, you heard Jonathan sound like Jonathan. He was in the right frame today and we didn’t get what we wanted It’s a verdict, but we got some conclusions, we have a new beginning, and we all hope that things can go smoothly and quickly.
Fortunately, Blueface seems to be doing just fine despite this. As expected, Safford’s emotional message received even more support from fans.
