Mystikal has reportedly been sentenced to 20 years in prison for rape in Louisiana.
After entering a guilty plea in connection with the case back in March, Mystikal, born Michael Tyler, was sentenced in court on Tuesday (June 16), Louisiana First News reports. The rapper learned his fate following a victim impact statement from the woman he attacked, who says she is still traumatized from the situation. Afterward, Mystikal reportedly told the court: "If that's what I did, I deserve every day of this sentence."
The 20-year sentence without the possibility of parole is five years short of the maximum that the rapper could have received after being accused of raping and torturing a woman at his home in 2022. This is Mystikal's second conviction for a sex crime. He spent six years in prison after pleading guilty to sexual battery and extortion in connection with an incident with his then-hair stylist in 2003. In 2017, he was again charged with rape. However, the case was eventually dropped due to a lack of evidence.
XXL has reached out to Mystikal's attorney for comment.

“The margin of error is very, very thin. We absolutely dominated for most of the series. But our errors, our mistakes, are punished so hard. We can’t have ups and downs like this. The ups are okay, the downs are the reason we lost.”
