XXXTentacion was sent to jail Friday morning after prosecutors handed down seven new felony charges related to his 2016 domestic violence case.

The new counts include different degrees of witness tampering and witness harassment. Prosecutors believe he coerced the ex-girlfriend he's accused of beating. Earlier this month, she asked for the charges to be dropped, which resulted in a delay of his trial. The Florida rapper already faced charges of battery against a pregnant woman and false imprisonment.

Today at the hearing, a judge ruled he violated his bond from his initial arrest. He'll likely remained behind bars until trial, and could face decades in prison if convicted.
