According to documents reviewed by The New York Post, the Louisiana rapper approached MAGA lobbying firm Jack Burkman and Jacob Wohl of JM Burkman & Associates in September 2025 and paid them $600,000 to secure a pardon from President Trump for federal gun charges from 2023.
The documents show Boosie’s agreement that if the pardon was not obtained by 5:00 p.m. on Jan. 1, the firm had to provide a $300,000 refund.
“This contract was prepared by and signed by Burkman & Associates, including the return of funds provision,” Boosie’s Baton Rouge-based lawyer, Jill Craft, told The Post. “We expect them to live up to their end of the signed contract.”
The 43-year-old, whose real name is Torrence Hatch Jr., claimed Burkman and Wohl mentioned that they had reached out to House Speaker Mike Johnson, Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ill), Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) and conservative activists and commentators Laura Loomer, Mike Cernovich, Jack Posobeich and Erika Kirk during his attempt to win a pardon.
“EVERYONE U SAID U REACHED OUT TO FOR MY PARDON HAS SAID U R LYING,” Boosie wrote on X. “ITS GETTING HOT SO WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?”
