Boosie Badazz could see his supervised release revoked by a judge following his alleged involvement in an incident at Texas nightclub last month.

According to court documents reviewed by Complex, a probation officer for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California has accused the Baton Rouge rapper of violating the terms of his supervised release after being charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon when he allegedly struck a security guard in the head with a glass hookah base.

He appeared in court on June 1 after a warrant was issued because he fled the scene before officers arrived. Following the hearing where his bond was set at $85,000, the rapper posted a video in which he classified the legal matter as a "money grab."

Boosie also allegedly violated his supervised release by traveling outside of his federal judicial district without prior approval, as evident by his alleged appearance in the nightclub where the incident occurred.

Even though the government requested a 24-month prison sentence after he pleaded guilty to a federal count of being a felon in possession of a firearm, Boosie was sentenced to time served, totaling 10 days, and three years of supervised release.

The petition notes that just weeks after the court exercised "considerable leniency" with his sentencing, Boosie "exhibited a pattern of non-compliance," and "failed to adhere to the most basic monitoring restrictions."

"His conduct demonstrates a disregard for the Court’s authority and unwillingness to comply with the expectations established to facilitate a successful transition to the community," the petition reads.

"Additionally, his history reflects longstanding involvement in a criminal lifestyle beginning at a young age. This lifestyle has continued to expose him to high-risk situations and criminogenic influences, including violence, weapons possession, antisocial peer associations, and illegal substance use."

The probation officer has recommended that Boosie is sentenced to 18 months in prison that would be served concurrently with any time given in the aggravated assault case. The rapper would then have 18 months of supervised release following his release.
