Nicki Minaj will have plenty of time to spend with her sex offender husband over the next year. Kenneth Petty—Minaj’s husband who previously served prison time after being convicted of attempted rape—was finally sentenced today after being arrested two years ago and pleading guilty for failing to register as a sex offender. His sentence includes one year on house arrest, three additional years on probation, and a $55,000 fine. Via TheHill:
Nicki Minaj’s husband on Wednesday was sentenced to home confinement for failing to register as a sex offender, multiple outlets report.
Kenneth Petty, who married the singer in 2019, avoided jail time and will serve an at-home sentence for a year, followed by three years of probation, and will pay a $55,000 fine.
Petty’s sentencing by U.S. District Judge Michael Fitzgerald comes two years after Petty was arrested in 2021 for failing to register as a sex offender in California. He previously served a four-year prison sentence after pleading guilty to attempted rape.
