Sources say Stevie J wouldn’t put up in his child support case … so he’s getting locked up instead.
According to TMZ, The U.S. Attorney Southern District of NY, revealed the ‘Love & Hip Hop’ star will have to turn himself in to authorities April 10 for failure to pay child support. Stevie owes more than $1.3 MILLION in back child support.
These cases are usually handled in state court, but the amount owed and the length of time he was in arrears makes it a federal case. The judge also skewered Stevie for ID’ing his probation officer’s name on social media.
Stevie pleaded guilty for failure to pay child support back in February 2017. He accepted full responsibility and had been ordered to fork over $1,304,835.86. He was also placed on probation for 3 years … unless he paid off his tab sooner than that.
