For someone not even 30 years old, Kodak Black has racked up quite a rap sheet.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The latest? The \u201cTunnel Vision\u201d singer \u2014 real name Bill Kapri \u2014 is behind bars on suspicion of drug trafficking near Orlando.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to the Orange County Sheriff\u2019s Office, the 28-year-old man born in Pompano Beach turned himself in on Wednesday. Inmate records reveal prisoner number 26016178 is in custody at the Orange County jail being on no bond.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Black is charged with allegedly trafficking between 10 grams and 200 grams of MDMA, known on the street as molly or ecstasy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to the five-page affidavit, the arrest stems from an incident that occurred six months ago in Orlando. On Nov. 24, 2025, officers responded to calls of gunshots near the Children\u2019s Safety Village, a nonprofit helping kids at risk.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

While on scene, officers searched two vehicles, a BMW SUV and a Lamborghini SUV, which both smelled of marijuana, the document says. The drivers of both those cars were arrested on a number of charges that night; their relationship to Black is unknown.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In the trunk of the BMW, officers found cannabis and a metal container containing a pink pill. In the Lamborghini, officers found a \u201cwhite, powdery substance\u201d on a $100 bill on the front floorboard. Nearby was a pair of scissors that were seen in Black\u2019s lnstagram post a week before, the complaint says. Also found in the Lambo was a pink bag, which contained $37,000, \u201cnumerous documents\u201d and a prison ID card that carried the name \u201cBill Kapri.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among the myriad items collected was a sample of an unknown substance submitted for testing by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. An FDLE report that came back on April 17 revealed the substance was a trafficking amount of MDMA and a warrant was issued for Black\u2019s arrest.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cFollowing further investigation and laboratory results confirming the presence of MDMA in an amount exceeding the trafficking threshold, probable cause was established,\u201d an OPD media relations rep confirmed to Rolling Stone.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Grammy nominee has faced multiple arrests in recent years, involving charges including robbery, possession and battery. The artist also has a philanthropic streak and was even given a key to the city of Pompano Beach.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Black\u2019s hard-working lawyer Bradford Cohen did not immediately respond to a Miami Herald request for comment on Thursday. He did tell TMZ the trafficking charge has a \u201cweak legal basis,\u201d and \u201cshould have never been filed.\u201d<\/p>\n
