Nicki Minaj’s husband, Kevin Petty, has reportedly been sentenced to ‘one-year house arrest’ and ‘five years probation’. 

According to reports, the 44-year-old failed to register as a s** offender within the required five days after relocating to Los Angeles with the rapper in 2019.

It’s believed the US Attorney’s Office has sentenced and fined Petty $55,000.

TMZ reports that it was argued home detention didn’t amount to much of a punishment, as he would be serving this time at his and Minaj’s Calabasas mansion.

Apparently, the US Attorney’s Office wanted a 15-month prison sentence, as well as the five years probation.

Reportedly, Petty said that there were ‘no excuses’ for not registering before receiving his sentence.

It’s believed he stated: “I take full responsibility for whatever happens today.

“I’m ashamed, embarrassed and disrespected my wife’s brand. There are no excuses, I broke the law. I thank you for giving me the chance to speak, to apologise.”

The singer’s spouse was convicted of attempted r*** of a 16-year-old girl in New York back in 1995. He served four years for the crime.

In 2006, Petty then pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. However, he ended up serving seven years.

So far, Minaj and her husband have yet to comment on the sentencing.

Over the years, the mum-of-one has defended her partner.

In 2018, she apparently took to social media and wrote: “He was 15, she was 16… in a relationship. But go awf [off], internet, y’all can’t run my life. Y’all can’t even run y’all own life.”

She’s also branded Wendy Williams ‘demonic’ for discussing Petty and his history on her talk show.
