XXXTentacion Jailed After Being Charged With 7 New Felonies

Rapper XXXTentacion, real name Jahseh Onfroy, was jailed Friday morning after prosecutors hit him with seven new felony charges. Each one is related to a 2016 domestic violence case against the Florida native.

Onfroy, 19, is facing charges that include witness tampering and witness harassment, online court records confirm.

According to TMZ, prosecutors believe he may have coerced the former girlfriend linked to the case, whom he's accused of brutalizing.

The additional charges come not long after Onfroy filed a document, which he alleged the victim signed, stating that she no longer wished to pursue legal action against him. This filing delayed his trial.

During Friday's hearing in Miami-Dade County, Judge Teresa Mary Pooler determined that Onfroy had violated his bond from his initial arrest.

As such, the musician was taken directly to jail where he's likely to remain until his next trial date.

Onfroy is now facing decades behind bars.

In October 2016 he was charged with aggravated battery against his pregnant ex-girlfriend, false imprisonment, domestic battery by strangulation and witness tampering.

Excerpts from the victim's lengthy testimony, obtained by Pitchfork, suggest Onfroy had been regularly abusive toward his then-girlfriend.

The woman claimed she and Onfroy began living together in May 2016. She said two weeks later, he slapped her and damaged her iPhone after she complimented another man's jewelry.

According to the victim, that same day Onfroy ordered her to choose whether to have a "barbecue pitchfork" or a "barbecue cleaner" put inside her vagina.

She alleged, in her testimony, that her former boyfriend became increasingly violent following the two incidents, threatening her life "literally like every day." She added that he head-butted, punched, stomped, and kicked her once for humming along to a song and threatened to cut her tongue out.

In August Onfroy was arrested for a separate incident where he was charged with aggravated battery with a firearm, armed home invasion and robbery. He later plead no contest to all charges and received 6 years of probation

After his release, she and Onfroy moved back in together in North Miami. She said in her testimony that after learning she had been intimate with another man, Onfroy became even more abusive.

He reportedly brandished a glass bottle at her while shouting that he was "going to f--- you up."

A week later they moved into an apartment together in Sweetwater, at which time Onfroy allegedly strangled the woman more than once. She said another resident intervened.

The victim learned she was pregnant this past October. That month she claims Onfroy made calls to the man whom she slept with while he was in jail, threatening to kill her and her unborn baby.

She also claimed he head-butted, punched, elbowed, strangled and threatened to kill her in the bathtub.

Onfroy pleaded not guilty to the charges against him.
