Detroit rapper Sameerah Marrell was finally apprehended after dodging the feds for over a month over tax evasion charges.
The rapper, who was known as Creme and was one half of the duo Deuces Wild, was scheduled to appear in court on Oct. 25 to plead guilty to tax evasion charges stemming from a $5.5 million IRS case. However, she skipped out on the appearance and was on the run until she was finally discovered and taken into custody in Memphis.
In July 2021, Marrell and Noelle Brown were charged with aggravated identity theft, false claims, and conspiracy after the IRS alleged that the two women executed a tax scheme that resulted in them filing multiple false tax returns that totaled more than $13.6 million between 2013 - 2017. The women were reportedly paid $5,539,049 by the IRS before the government agency caught on the scheme.
Marrell and Brown are reportedly facing ten years in federal prison if convicted.
