Kenneth Petty aka Nicki Minaj’s husband had a tryst with law enforcement earlier this week.
Petty was arrested by US Marshals as he had failed to register himself as a sex offender.
The 41 year old is a registered sex offender in the state of New York, for a 1995 crime of first-degree attempted rape, for which he also served four years in prison.
Petty had moved with Minaj to Los Angeles last year in July and he was hence due to file himself as a sex offender in the state as well, which he failed to do until now.
Petty was then formally arrested and charged and was later released on a bond of $20,000. But he now also faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted.
