Yaya has been accused of stabbing NBA Youngboy’s baby mother, Lapattra Lashai Jocaobs, which resulted in serious injuries.

In April 2020, reports claimed the crime Yaya allegedly committed could carry a $10,000 fine or up to 99 years in prison.

However, a new report on Wednesday (Oct 20) claims Yaya Mayweather is facing up to 20 years in prison for the assault.

While Yaya has not addressed the assault allegations publicly, reports have stated that she may be behind bars for upwards of 20 years if convicted.

While Yaya has stayed quiet about her case, she has often taken to social media to voice her opinions on her ex-boyfriend, NBA YoungBoy's.
