Yesterday (October 26), buzz developed about Gates’ 180-day jail sentencing.
Rapper Kevin Gates was sentenced to 180 days in a Polk County jail after being found guilty of kicking a fan at a concert last year in Lakeland. The judge also ordered a one year probation after Gates’ jail time. The sentence was three times what prosecutors requested. (Fox 13 News)
Back in April, Gates filed paperwork to have his now-infamous August 2015 case tossed.
Gates says Miranda Dixon tried to grab him twice during the show last August in Lakeland, FL — and since he gave her a verbal warning after her first failed attempt … he had every right to fight back. In the docs, he says Dixon managed to grab his shorts the second time, and he thought she was trying to pull him offstage … so he used necessary force to defend himself and prevent further harm. (TMZ)
In September 2015, Gates spoke out on attacking the female fan.
“I’m not saying he was right in retaliating the way he did but at the same time, how many times can you keep asking someone to stop touching you before you defend yourself,” said Ryan Sayers. “I feel like she was disrespecting him because he asked her multiple times to stop and she didn’t.” said Danielle Vitale. (ABC Action News)
You don’t touch people you don’t know
he rared back and kicked her hard..
unnecessary.. security shoulda escorted her out not kick her out …literally
Glad he felt the need to act like a jerk to her. Just get security to get her away from you, isn’t that their purpose. If you can’t do it yourself in a way that wouldn’t result in a lawsuit or jail then be smart don’t be foolish.
Listen to the news stupid he told her to stop multiple times i think that it goes both ways in the sexual harassment issues cus if he did that to her then he gets charged with rape its not fare
Let me ask you something if Beyonce was on stage an a guy grab her 2 times an she ask him to stop an he dont do you think the same would happen to her
Fuck Kevin Gates!!!! Come to Memphis and get yo ass kicked for doing some weak suit like this.
U bitch bro if u dnt want somebody touching you you would of done the same foh
