Mystikal Posed For Never-Before-Seen Sex Offender Mug Shot

Rapper Mystikal, also known as Michael Tyler, pleaded guilty to rape charges in a Louisiana courtroom Tuesday afternoon. Mystikal pleaded guilty to third-degree rape charges and faces a maximum of 20 years in prison. A judge ordered a presentence investigation. Mystikal was arrested in 2022 on rape and domestic abuse charges. He pleaded not guilty that same year to those charges. Ascension Parish deputies told WAFB that just before midnight on July 30, 2022, they responded to a hospital in the area in reference to a sexual assault. “Once we got there, we talked to the victim, who had some very visible injuries on her body, and she was very distraught,” said Donovan Jackson, spokesman for the Ascension Parish Sheriff’s Office. “She talked with us, we interviewed her, and she was able to identify who the suspect was. And in this case, it was Michael Tyler, also known as Mystikal.” Deputies arrested Mystikal at his Prairieville home. He has been held without bond since 2022. Mystikal faced similar charges back in 2004 for sexually assaulting his hair stylist. He spent six years behind bars and became a registered sex offender.
