From the Baltimore Sun, where you can read more on the story:
Baltimore rapper Lor X was sentenced Tuesday to 15 years in prison for overseeing a gang that distributed fentanyl throughout Southwest Baltimore.
Circuit Judge Lawrence R. Daniels imposed a total sentence of 40 years incarceration but suspended the majority of time behind bars for the rapper, whose legal name is Xavier Johnson.
“He’s going to have 25 years hanging over his head,” Daniels said of Johnson’s eventual release. “I got to tell you, Mr. Johnson, if you so much as spit on the sidewalk, I’ll give you all of it.”
The judge’s comments punctuated a tense sentencing hearing for Johnson, 33, who pleaded guilty in September to one count of organizing, supervising and financing a gang and two counts of being in possession of large quantities of a mixture of drugs containing fentanyl.
