Bobby Shmurda affiliate Rashid Derrisant was sentenced to 98 1/3 years to life in prison in a New York City court on Tuesday, according to a press release from the Office of the Special Narcotics Prosecutor.
Derrisant was on trial for 22 counts tied to his activities as a member of the Shmurda-associated gang GS9, including one count of second-degree murder to five counts of second-degree attempted murder. His crimes fueled the cross-state violence between the GS9 and Brooklyn-based gang "Brooklyn's Most Wanted" (or "BMW") with the rivalry's effects extending as far as Miami.
The bulk of Derrisant's lengthy sentence comes from three separate shootings, one which took place in South Beach, Miami, resulting in one death and multiple injuries.
