  • Mally Mall is currently serving three years probation for running an illegal Las Vegas prostitution ring
  • His request to end his supervised release was denied last month by the same judge who once called him a monster
  • He will continue serving probation until next year

Jamal Rashid — the rapper, producer, reality show star, and former real-life pimp better known as Mally Mall — will remain on probation after his attorney’s January 20 motion to end his court-ordered supervision was shut down by a federal judge last month.

According to US District Court Judge Gloria Navarro, Rashid’s “concerted effort over at least 12 years to operate an illegal prostitution business” makes it impossible to be more lenient.

Defendant’s conduct was not the result of a single poor decision or regrettable judgment,” Navarro wrote in her February 24 order, which was first reported Monday by KLAS-TV/Las Vegas. “Rather, his livelihood for more than a decade depended on his illegal operation.”

In 2021, Navarro sentenced Rashid to 33 months at the Federal Correctional Institution in Sheridan, Ore., followed by three years of probation after he pleaded guilty to running an illegal prostitution ring.

According to the FBI, which raided his Las Vegas house on human trafficking warrants in 2014, Rashid “persuaded, induced, enticed and caused hundreds of victims to prostitute themselves for his benefit” beginning in 2002.

“Rashid operated a high-end prostitution business that transported victims across the United States, using various paid websites … to advertise the victims for prostitution purposes,” read a press release from the US attorney’s office, District of Nevada.

Isn’t it Ironic?

One of the conditions of Rashid’s probation that he now objects to — according to the motion filed by his attorney, Christ Rasmussen — is needing permission to travel out of Nevada. According to Rasmussen, this requirement “interferes with Rashid’s music career.”

Ironically, victims said in court documents that he made them “put trackers on their cars and cameras in their condos,” and that they needed permission to go to the gynecologist.

The mere inconvenience of having to obtain approval to travel for work purposes from probation and the court is an insufficient reason to terminate his supervision,” Navarro responded in her order.

Before Rashid’s sentencing, Navarro said she wasn’t sure she’d accept the deal because Rashid had been such a monster.

Rashid’s probation is scheduled to end on Sept. 17, 2026.
