23 Jun
Summary
- Mystikal sentenced to 20 years for third-degree rape.
- Son Million Tyler expresses disappointment and sympathy.
- Rapper attempts to reconnect with son, but is met with silence.
Rapper Mystikal, whose legal name is Michael Taylor, received a 20-year prison sentence on June 12, 2026, following a guilty plea to third-degree rape. The conviction stems from a July 2022 incident at his Prairieville, Louisiana, home. Mystikal accused a woman of theft before allegedly sexually assaulting her.
During the sentencing proceedings, Mystikal's son, Million Tyler, was present and witnessed the victim's testimony. He has since spoken out, expressing his disappointment while also conveying sympathy for both the victim and his father. Million stated he hopes his father receives the necessary help.
Following the sentencing, Mystikal has reportedly attempted to mend his relationship with Million. However, his son has not yet responded, indicating a need for personal processing time before engaging with his father. Million acknowledged wanting to speak with his father but could not predict when he would be ready.
Mystikal's attorney mentioned that the rapper loves his son and wishes to repair their bond, but understands Million's current emotional struggle. While Mystikal pleaded guilty to third-degree rape, a civil lawsuit from the same accuser alleging physical and emotional distress is ongoing.
