Reportedly, due to 13 months already served, 69 could be out in late 2020.
Tekashi was facing a minimum of 37 years in prison for multiple charges including racketeering and firearms. He was also on probation for unlawful use of a minor in a sexual performance from an incident in 2015.

There has been no confirmation that Tekashi would enter Witness Protection after his released as rumored.
