Kenneth Petty Pleads Guilty To Failing To Register As A Sex Offender In California

Nicki Minaj’s husband, Kenneth Petty, has pleaded guilty to failure to register as a sex offender in California.

According to court documents filed on Thursday, Petty previously pleaded not guilty but then changed it to a guilty plea for the single-count indictment, NBC News reports. Back in November 2019, police pulled over and arrested Petty during a traffic stop in Beverly Hills. The news outlet reports authorities had learned he’d moved from New York to California without registering as a sex offender.

A year later, Petty was arrested after he was indicted concerning the same incident. He was released after posting a $100,000 bond.

His indictments come after Petty was convicted of first-degree attempted rape in New York in connection to an incident from April 1995. The victim was 16 at the time of the attempted rape. Petty ended up serving almost four years in New York State prison.

In August, the victim filed a lawsuit against Minaj and Petty, claiming they tried to compel her to recant her account of the rape. The couple allegedly offered one of the victim’s family members $500,000 if the woman said Petty didn’t do it.
