Boston Richie, the 28-year-old rapper, is now in federal custody following shocking allegations of assault against his 19-year-old pregnant girlfriend, Tatiana Chanel. The disturbing incident unfolded at a Houston hotel on March 31, where Chanel reported that Richie brutally choked her multiple times during a violent altercation, leaving her fearing for her life.
According to a criminal complaint, the couple was at a nightclub when an argument escalated. Chanel claims Richie forcibly took her phone, then proceeded to push her into a vehicle, choking her for several seconds and causing her to lose consciousness. With her pregnancy at only a few weeks along, the gravity of the situation is heightened as she stated, “If you call the police, I might as well 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁 you.” The attack only ended when a mutual friend intervened.
Richie’s legal troubles compound further as he was already facing federal charges related to drug trafficking and firearm possession, with a prior release condition that prohibited him from committing new offenses. The recent assault led federal prosecutors to issue a warrant for his arrest, asserting he violated his release terms by leaving Florida without permission.
As the situation develops, Richie’s future appears bleak. If convicted, he could face significant prison time for both the assault and his ongoing federal charges. Meanwhile, allegations have surfaced suggesting Chanel might consider dropping charges if compensated, raising questions about potential witness tampering. If he remains in custody, Richie risks missing the 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 of his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥, a tragic consequence of his actions.
With the case attracting significant media attention, the implications for Richie’s career and personal life are dire. As details continue to unfold, the urgency of this situation looms large, leaving fans and followers anxious for clarity on the fate of both Richie and Chanel.
