According to documents obtained by XXL from the District Court of Harris County in Houston, Texas, a judge awarded the victim, Lapattra Lashai Jacobs, a whopping $40,105,000 in compensatory damages, plus $10 million in exemplary damages, which is akin to punitive damages.
The breakdown of the compensatory damages includes $8 million for physical pain and mental anguish, loss of earnings, and disfigurement. An additional $32 million is for future damages that also include physical pain and mental anguish, physical impairment, and disfigurement. The extra $10 million was because the judge found Mayweather knowingly committed an aggravated ass@ult involving the use of a deadly weapon.
NBA YoungBoy (whose legal name is Kentrell Gaulden) was named as a defendant in the suit, which was filed in the 189th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas.
Additionally, the judge ordered Mayweather to submit documentation covering all bank accounts, contractual obligations, revenue streams, and additional earnings in order to fulfill the financial judgment.
Mayweather pleaded guilty in April of 2022 to Aggravated Assault With a Deadly Weapon following the st@bbing incident inside NBA YoungBoy’s Louisiana home on April 3, 2020. She shares a son with YB, whom she was dating at the time of the incident.
Jacobs is NBA YoungBoy’s other baby mother, and the pair were at his home together when Mayweather arrived and reportedly became angered by Jacobs’ presence. The two women began a verbal altercation, which turned physical when Mayweather allegedly retrieved two knives from the kitchen and st@bbed Jacobs twice. Jacobs was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries to her arm and bicep and underwent surgery.
NBA YoungBoy shares 5-year-old Kentrell Gaulden Jr. with Mayweather. The rapper also reportedly shares a 6-year-old child with Jacobs.
