VALHALLA, N.Y. (AP) — Rapper Casanova, who is jailed in New York in a gang-related federal racketeering case, is facing disciplinary charges over a dance challenge video posted on social media.

The 34-year-old rapper, whose legal name is Caswell Senior, will be disciplined by officials at the Westchester County Jail after a woman recorded him accepting the so-called Junebug challenge during a video visit, the Journal News reported.

The challenge asks TikTok users to perform a set of moves in the strangest location they can think of. The woman recorded Casanova dancing in jail and posted it on Instagram, the newspaper reported.

Westchester County Correction Commissioner Joseph Spano said correction officials have revoked Casanova’s video visitation privileges because recording videos and taking pictures during a virtual visit is prohibited.

“I’m happy to say we don’t have a lot of issues with video visits because inmates know it’s a privilege, not a right,” Spano said.

Casanova faces another charge for not wearing a mask, authorities said.

Casanova’s attorney, James Kousouros, noted that his client was not the one who posted the video and said he hopes the matter can be resolved without Casanova being cut off from video visits, the only way he can see his loved ones during the coronavirus pandemic. Kousouros said Casanova was just “trying to keep his spirits up and have a laugh.”

It appears that Casanova will remain incarcerated—for now—after a judge denied the rapper the ability to post bail.

According to VladTV, on Thursday (Jan 28) a federal magistrate judge has denied Casanova’s attempt to get out of jail while awaits court for charges of racketeering and drug trafficking. During the court hearing, U.S. Magistrate Judge Paul Davison stated that while Casanova’s defense team provided a “formidable” argument for the “Woah” rapper on $2.5 million bail, but Davison expressed that he was “concerned” about the danger to the community if Casanova was released.

“When you go back to the history and characteristics of this defense, this is a defendant who has, over the last decade, managed to rack up three serious violent felony convictions,” Davison said, later adding he was concerned by Casanova’s alleged role as a gang leader. “It is quite reasonable to infer that people who cross (Casanova) get hurt.”

During proceedings, prosecutors also fueled the judge’s decision by describing the rapper as a high-ranking member of the Gorilla Stone gang who had the authority to order others to commit violence, before adding that there is “rampant evidence of guns, drugs, and violence centrally involving this defendant.”

“He sits near the very top of a violent organization,” assistant U.S. Attorney Russell Felton argued Thursday morning, later adding, “He’s one of the top leaders and narcotic suppliers in a large scale operation that was carried out by more junior members of Gorilla Stone.

In addition to his current charges, the U.S. Attorney also alleged that Casanova, whose real name is Caswell Senior, was responsible for the shooting that occurred at his birthday party at a strip club in Florida that resulted in a suspected rival Crip member being shot by someone in Gorilla Stone. Felton inferred that Casanova had ordered the shooting, which his attorney, James Kousouros, vehemently denied before adding that prosecutors had provided no evidence to back up the allegations against Casanova and that he expected him to be acquitted; noting that the photos of guns found on Casanova’s phones were fake weapons used to promote the song “Gripped Up.”

“We say the government is providing the court with photos of weapons that are promotional photographs,” Kousouros said. “(Casanova’s) appearances are very public, they’re photographed, you never see him with a weapon. Aside from the innuendo that he is the big boss directing people to do things, the government has not come forward and put a gun in my client’s hand. The government has not come forward and given you any evidence of him, directing, anybody to commit any kind of violent acts. The government has not come forward and said ‘Judge, we know that he sold cocaine or heroin on a particular date. We searched his house, and found money.’ There is nothing except inferences from what other people have said and photographs that he has posted to support these charges.”

A point that the U.S. Attorney argued was due to Casanova’s elevation in rank within the gang, before recalling the rapper’s interview with Nick Cannon where he stated that he is “still ape,” a reference to being part of Gorilla Stone. Felton adds that there was “overwhelming reliable evidence” that Casanova was also a drug supplier for the gang who had “moved up from muscle to a leadership role.”

As previously reported, Casanova was one of 18 alleged members of the Untouchable Gorilla Stone Nation gang who was arrested last November on charges of murder, attempted murder, racketeering, assault, and fraud among other charges. The Roc Nation artist faces up to life in prison if convicted, although he maintains his innocence. Hours before he turned himself in to authorities, the “Commissary” rapper recorded a video ensuring fans of his innocence before adding he’s prepared for the fight.

“As you already know I’m fighting serious charges right now,” Casanova said. “But um, I’m innocent – that’s one. Two, I been fighting my whole life so I’ll get through this. But just understand how they could get you jammed up.”
