Petty’s disturbing criminal history includes the attempted rape of a 16-year-old girl in 1994 when he was 16.<\/p>\n

He went to prison for almost four years for the crime and was registered\u00a0as a level two sex offender in New York, which indicates he’s at a moderate risk of committing the crime again.<\/p>\n

Petty, who grew up in Queens, New York like Minaj, has been arrested several other times over the years. In one of the cases he served seven years in prison for manslaughter for his involvement in the deadly shooting of a man.<\/p>\n
