The Cuban reggaeton artist Chocolate MC could be on the verge of possible deportation to Cuba, amid new arrest warrants and a criminal record that continues to grow in the United States.
The journalist Mario Vallejo revealed that the urban artist, whose real name is Yosvani Arismín Sierra Hernández, has active detention orders in three counties in Florida: Miami-Dade, Escambia, and Pasco, as well as another in Texas for which the charges are unknown.
According to reports in Florida, he faces a charge of assault, for which he removed his electronic ankle monitor and fled, in addition to two other charges related to issues with his driver's license.
In a recent live stream from a pool, the self-proclaimed "King of the Repairmen" openly challenged the Miami-Dade police to find him and arrest him. “Let them do their job,” he said in a defiant and mocking tone while filming himself enjoying the sun and water.
“Miami-Dade Police, focus on your work, stop with the social media and the news, and work against the corrupt”, he wrote in his Instagram stories.
One of the police officers involved in his search, who has arrested him on previous occasions, stated that Chocolate's behavior is repetitive: when he is in trouble with the law, he tends to mock the authorities and provoke them through social media.
Why hasn't he been deported?
The question that many followers and critics are asking is why Chocolate MC has not yet been deported to Cuba, considering his criminal history in the United States, especially amid the wave of deportations being carried out by ICE, repatriating even individuals who have had no issues with the law in the United States.
“Maybe this time they will deport him, maybe not, it’s uncertain,” responded the official contacted by Vallejo, leaving the door ajar to a possibility that has not yet materialized.
If arrested this time, the reggaeton artist could spend a considerable amount of time behind bars, warns the journalist. In the meantime, Chocolate continues to defy the law, maintaining the same controversial attitude that has characterized his career both in music and beyond.
