Controversial hip-hop artist Blueface has been directed to pay a substantial sum of $13 million in damages as a consequence of his involvement in a shooting at a Las Vegas strip club.
Legal records acquired by TMZ revealed that the owner of the Euphoric Gentleman's Club filed a lawsuit against Blueface, asserting that the shooting had severely impacted the club's operations, leading to its eventual downfall.
The court awarded the club owner a summary judgment totaling $13,072,482.
This extensive monetary penalty is itemized into several categories, including $12.6 million in lost revenue, lease damages amounting to $198,000, and approximately $84,000 in payroll expenses paid to employees following the club's closure in November 2022, among other costs incurred.
Previously, Blueface had accepted a plea deal in the criminal case associated with the incident, resulting in a suspended sentence. This implies that he will be under three years of probation and will avoid incarceration provided he maintains a clean record.
It remains uncertain whether Blueface intends to contest the judgment. Notably, he was not represented by legal counsel during the civil case, and it appears that he did not appear in court to challenge the recent ruling.
