Chicago rapper G Herbo, real name Herbert Wright III, was arrested on September 25, 2020, along with his street gang, on racketeering charges (RICO Act). G Herbo and company have been arrested on charges of, "Conspiracy to commit wire fraud and aggravated identity theft."

It is in reference to a credit card fraud scheme that illegally made the defendants $1,500,000. They used the funds to buy jewelry, clothes, cars, rent limos, lease private jets and take vacations. Of course, like many unwise criminals, they posted photos of this lavish living on social networking.

Previously, on April 23, 2019, I wrote about G Herbo beating up the mother of his child and denounced his criminal acts of domestic violence. As I know the industry very well and how much people make from entertainment, last year in an article I also questioned how he was making his money.

In my Judiciary Report article last year I stated of G Herbo, "He is into crime to supplement his income, as his music isn't selling well and the music industry is not generating the type of money it used to do. A baby should not be in an environment with a violent parent who is into crime. The poor child could get hurt" (Rapper Herbo Was Arrested For Beating Up And Choking The Mother Of His Child Ari Fletcher After Seeing Her With New Boyfriend Boxer Gervonta Davis).

Well, my article has been proven correct 19-months later with G Herbo's arrest on credit card fraud charges. Now you can see where G Herbo was getting money from to flash expensive diamonds and other luxury items online...massive fraud that stole $1,500,000 from people's credit cards. Ironically, there are more crimes, but it's not up to me to indict him for those things.
