Tekashi 6ix9ine will have to complete court-ordered drug and mental health programs once he wraps up his three-month prison sentence.
Last Friday (Dec. 5), Judge Paul Engelmayer — the same judge who handled his 2019 racketeering case — sentenced the 29-year-old rapper (born Daniel Hernandez) to a full year of supervised release. As part of that, he’ll be required to join a mental health program focused on anger management and take part in outpatient drug treatment.
According to court documents filed on Dec. 8, these conditions will kick in after he finishes his prison term on January 6, 2026.
Before sentencing, he told TMZ he wasn’t worried about serving time and planned to use the stint behind bars to get in shape. He also said he expected to be separated from the general population because of his “snitch” label and planned to make the most of the isolation — even claiming he wanted to drop from 190 pounds to 120 by eating just one box of Oreo cookies a day.
These new terms follow multiple supervision violations, including getting caught with cocaine and MDMA and an assault inside a Florida mall.
A recent federal raid on his property — where agents found the drugs tied to his case — played a major role in sending him back into custody after years on probation for his testimony in the Nine Trey racketeering case.
