He then became a full time criminal.[1] While in the aftermath of his arrest, Yebba began penning an autobiographical work entitled "Fallen Hero".

Yebba continues his writing and has since penned several feature films such as horror–slasher The Hamilton House, Angel's Guardian and Rush Back. He also has 2 television projects in development, Affair of Honor and Knocked.[2][3] He appeared in season 2 of Bosch, as "Mike" a mob enforcer.

Yebba made his Directorial debut with the Award-winning short film Bad Blood and the recently completed Ordinary Man (2011) starring Ethan Embry, Brian Scannell and Ramiro Torres.
