Since DeenTheGreats arrest in May, the streamer and boxer hasnt missed a beat with his content or boxing journey. From releasing new music on YouTube with Adrien Broner to participating in the 45-Day Locked-In-Thon, hes remained active despite his ongoing legal case. Now, theres a major update as Deen faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted in connection with an alleged yacht incident in Miami. His lawyer is now speaking out on the latest developments.
As previously reported, court documents obtained by TMZallege the charges stem from a May 27 yacht incident in Miami. Prosecutors claim DeenTheGreat, whose legal name is Nurideen Shabazz, became involved in a physical altercation with a woman aboard the yacht.
According to the alleged victim, Destiny Aleman, Deen became upset after other men tried talking to her aboard the yacht. She claimed Deen grabbed her forearm while she was recording the interaction, leaving a minor scratch before allegedly taking her phone.
The yacht owner reportedly turned over security footage to police, which authorities say showed Deen allegedly grabbing Aleman multiple times. Police were reportedly waiting at the dock when the yacht returned, and authorities say Deens account did not match the footage.
If convicted of the felony robbery charge, Deen could face up to 15 years in prison under Florida law. The charges remain allegations, and no conviction has been reported.
DeenTheGreats lawyer, Richard L. Cooper, is speaking out after the streamer faces up to 15 years in prison following felony robbery and misdemeanor battery charges in Miami. Cooper says he believes the case will be dismissed and expects it to be resolved soon.
In a statement to TMZ, Cooper said, On May 27th Deen was arrested and charged with a 2nd degree felony which carries a maximum of 15 years in a Florida prison. This is nothing new. However, we still anticipate that this case will be dismissed by the prosecutors in short order. We look forward to resolving the case next week.
