Bobby Boseman, also known as Killa B, was sentenced on April 30 to 235 months in federal prison for possession with intent to distribute cocaine and maintaining a drug premises, according to United States Attorney Jerome F. Gorgon Jr.

Gorgon announced the sentencing alongside Jennifer Runyan, Special Agent in Charge of the Detroit Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Terence Green, Chief of Police for the City of Flint. The sentence was imposed by U.S. District Court Judge F. Kay Behm following Boseman’s guilty plea.

Court documents show that between February 26 and August 3, 2021, Boseman used his residence on Tebo Street in Flint as a location for manufacturing and distributing cocaine. Authorities said he directed others who sold drugs from his home and allowed customers to use drugs there. Police recovered drugs, firearms, and large amounts of ammunition from the home on three occasions during this period.

During Boseman’s arrest on August 3, police found two naked and injured women inside the residence. According to court records, Boseman accused them of stealing drugs and kept them naked without food for days while subjecting them to beatings and forcing them into sexual acts. Both women had visible injuries; one suffered a collapsed lung while the other’s eyes were nearly swollen shut.

“Only a coward beats women. And only a pimp forces them to sell their bodies. This rapacious drug dealer treated these women worse than animals,” said Gorgon.

Jennifer Runyan said: “Make no mistake, the FBI will not tolerate those who invoke fear, violence, and exploitation in our communities… This defendant chose to torture women, distribute dangerous drugs, and inflict lasting harm through ruthless criminal actions. This sentence ensures the defendant will have years in federal prison to reflect on those choices while justice is served.” She commended law enforcement agencies involved in investigating this case.

The investigation was conducted by special agents from the FBI with assistance from Flint Police Department and Flint Area Narcotics Group (FANG). Assistant United States Attorneys Ann Nee and Anthony Vance prosecuted the case.
