This is not the first time Jelly Roll has visited inmates at the Genesee County Jail.

Jelly Roll visited the Genesee County Jail on December 5th, 2023, after Genesee County Sheriff Chris Swanson invited him to Flint via social media. The pair had a fun back-and-forth through videos and locked the date in so Jelly Roll could be part of an I.G.N.I.T.E graduation ceremony for inmates.
