Pooh Shiesty Back in Federal Custody, New Release Date Pushed to April 2026

UPDATE: Pooh Shiesty record label reached out to me and confirmed that he is not in jail. Apparently his April date existed since his “release” and he’s on home confinement until April like he has been the whole time since his release.

According to Federal Bureau of Prisons records, Memphis rapper Pooh Shiesty (real name Lontrell Denell Williams Jr.) has officially been taken back into federal custody.

The records list a new projected release date of April 11, 2026, signaling a setback for the rapper, who had been nearing the end of his previous sentence. At this time, Pooh Shiesty is reportedly being held in Dallas, though specific details surrounding the reason for his return to custody have not yet been made public.

As of now, federal authorities have not released further information regarding the circumstances that led to the updated incarceration status. Fans quickly noticed the change after BOP records were updated, sparking speculation across social media.

Pooh Shiesty, known for breakout hits and his rise under Gucci Mane’s 1017 label, has remained a frequent topic of conversation even during his legal troubles. Supporters are now awaiting clarity on what this development means for his future — both legally and musically.

More information is expected as details become available.
