Shiesty is currently in jail in connection to an alleged shooting of a security guard at the King of Diamonds strip club during Memorial Day Weekend. Also charged are two other men, Bobby Brown, and Jayden Darosa. As seen in the criminal complaint, the three men were set to meet two men to purchase marijuana and sneakers at the Landon Hotel in Bay Harbor Islands. According to reports of the footage, Shiesty and Brown shot the men, with one suffering a shot in the hip while the other was shot in the buttocks. A surveillance camera reportedly recorded the shooting and robbery. Shiesty drove to the meetup in a rented McLaren, a vehicle Shiesty posted to his Instagram page.
