Bobby Shmurda was sentenced to seven years in prison on Wednesday, despite the

rapper's attempts to persuade a judge to overturn his previously arranged plea deal. "I
want to withdraw my plea," Shmurda said during his sentencing in a Manhattan
courtroom, according to NBC New York. "I was forced by my attorney to take the
plea. I was forced."

New York state court Justice Abraham Clott denied Shmurda's request, enforcing the
seven-year term agreed upon in September. In that original plea deal, established
nearly two years since his arrest, the rapper pleaded guilty to 4th-degree conspiracy to
criminally possess a weapon and 2nd-degree criminal weapons possession, Billboard
reports.
