From Yahoo! News, where you can read the full story:
Floyd Mayweather’s 21-year-old daughter, Iyanna “Yaya” Mayweather, has accepted a plea deal and taken responsibility for the 2020 stabbing of Lapattra Jacobs. Notably, Mayweather and Jacobs share a child with rapper NBA YoungBoy—aka YoungBoy Never Broke Again.
Mayweather appeared in court in Houston on Wednesday, where she pleaded guilty to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
While Mayweather was originally facing a minimum of two years, with the max being 20 years behind bars, The Shade Room reports that prosecutors recommend six years of probation instead.
Mayweather’s attorney, Kent Schaffer, spoke to XXL about her plea.
“We resolved the case between Iyanna and the State,” Schaffer said. “The agreement calls for Iyanna to be on deferred adjudication for a period of six years, after which she will have no felony conviction and the case will be dismissed. She is eligible to have the deferred adjudication end after two years pending her good behavior.”
“Although we believe that Iyanna was defending herself after being attacked, we thought this was the safest resolution for her. This is especially true since her boyfriend and his bodyguards refused to testify, probably due to their own legal problems,” he added.
