The records show that authorities have accused the rapper, real name Bill Kahan Kapri, of trafficking an amount of MDMA greater than 10 grams in mass but less than 200 grams. The rapper, whose last known location was Fort Lauderdale, was booked on Wednesday and \u201cpresentenced.\u201d His case will be considered in a circuit court.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tThe Orlando Police Department did not immediately respond to <em>Rolling Stone\u2019s <\/em>request for comment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tKapri\u2019s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, tells\u00a0<em>Rolling Stone\u00a0<\/em>that the arrest was a \u201ccoordinated surrender\u201d related to an incident in November 2025 when police found \u201ca bag containing several items, including a bottle of prescription cough syrup,\u201d in a car they searched. Kapri was not in the car, but, Cohen says, the bottle \u201callegedly had Mr. Kapri\u2019s fingerprint on it.\u201d Cohen believes the case is \u201cnot sufficient to charge possession of the item,\u201d at least legally.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t\u201cInstead of simple possession, they doubled down and filed it as a trafficking charge,\u201d he says. \u201cI will be fighting the charge. This is an ongoing theme where cases that would normally not be filed due to a weak legal basis are filed against Mr. Kapri. We look forward to yet another fruitful resolution to another case that should have never been filed.\u201d<\/p>\n<section class=\"brands-most-popular \/\/ recirculation-modules trending-in-article lrv-u-margin-tb-2 lrv-u-border-a-2 u-box-shadow-5-5 lrv-u-padding-lr-1 a-span1 u-padding-b-1@tablet u-overflow-hidden\">\n<h2 id=\"section-heading\" class=\"c-heading larva  lrv-u-text-align-center u-border-color-black a-font-theme-primary-xxs lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase u-letter-spacing-0063 lrv-u-padding-t-050 u-padding-b-0375@tablet lrv-u-padding-b-050@mobile-max lrv-u-border-b-2\">\n<p>\t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tPolice have previously arrested Kapri on multiple charges.
