Tekashi 6ix9ine's former manager Shotti took a plea deal this summer, agreeing to 15 years on RICO charges.

It could have been a lot worse. Today is believed to be the last day of the trial of Aljermiah "Nuke" Mack and Anthony "Harv" Ellison. During testimony this week, it was revealed that Shotti was the Nine Trey's enforcer (Shotti = shooter.)

Today, we learned the Feds have Shotti on tape -- thanks 6ix9ine's driver, who was an informant -- admitting he once shot five people in one night for Nine Trey boss Mel Murda.

Now US Attorney is playing audio that driver Jorge Rivera, cooperating with government after picked up on immigration charges, recorded of Shotti telling #6ix9ine, we got to kill somebody, I drive around with a semi-automatic rifle
