Gucci Mane aka Radrick Davis has been sent back to jail and has been sentenced to serve 1 year in Fulton County jail on probation violation charges. The video above is the Atlanta news coverage of his hearing, during which the judge revoked Gucci Mane’s probation because he used drugs & alcohol and didn’t complete the required community service. Dude even showed up drunk for a probation meeting. His excuse? He had just left the studio and had consumed champaign the night before. What a dunce! After he completes his year in jail, Davis will still have 2 1/2 years of probation and will have to serve 600 hours of community service. Some people just deserve to be locked up.
*Sigh* Yes…you read right! Rapper DMX lost it during his hearing in a Miami-Dade County courtroom Tuesday morning after learning he would spend another month in jail.
“I ain’t going back to no fc*king jail,” said DMX (aka Earl Simmons). “Oh, well that just ingratiated you to me,” said Judge Lawrence Schwartz. “I’ve never heard the F-word before, so it’s OK.” The judge then warned Simmons’ lawyer that the rapper had better not curse in his courtroom again.
The mugshot above is from Simmons’ most recent arrest at a Miami-Dade County Wal-Mart earlier this month after failing to appear at a court hearing in Arizona. He was also arrested in June for not having a valid driver’s license. Check out the courtroom video under the cut: (more…)
Shawntae Harris aka Da Brat has been sentenced to 3 years in jail following an altercation at Jermaine Dupri’s Studio 72 last fall. The victim, Shayla Stevens, was working as a waitress at the nightclub when Da Brat struck her in the head with a bottle of rum after the waitress bumped into her. This sentence concludes the criminal case, however Stevens has a civil case pending against Da Brat for unspecified medical and other costs.
Check out more specifics under the cut…and don’t forget to check out the video that comes to mind everytime I read about this case. ATL don’t play… (more…)
Sources say that Da Brat (aka Shawntae Harris) has struck a plea deal with Dekalb County prosecutors in her pending assault case. To refresh your memory, Brat was arrested last fall after she attacked a waitress with a bottle during Jermaine Dupri’s Halloween Party at Studio 72 (View Mugshot). I’ve heard that the deal is for Harris to turn herself in by the end of the week to begin serving a 1 year sentence, however Dekalb County’s website lists her pretrial scheduled for August 22nd. Brat has been out on bond since November 1, 2007. Will update you as I get additional details…
My obsession with mugshots is taking up alot of posts this week…they’ve been coming back to back! Earl Simmons, aka DMX, was arrested AGAIN last night (I told y’all the month wasn’t over yet…). DMX was arrested in Phoenix and charged with a felony charge of false identity and it doesn’t look like he’ll be getting out any time soon! (more…)
I just got this in my inbox last night and I ALMOST didn’t post it….but I couldn’t do it to yall. You deserve to know the truth!! One of my former favorite ATLiens, T.I. went on an Atlanta radio station recently to confirm that Shawty Lo is seeking his acknowledgment in the song “Dunn-Dunn“. In the interview, T.I. tells Shawty Lo to “get in the game first…” and to “do something worth considering first, and then (he) will be acknowledged“. T.I. also goes on to say that if it wasn’t for him, no one would know what Bankhead was. Now, am I the only one whose like WTF? Your azz just barely got outta jail and you are really feeling yourself. Tip, for real though…although this interview was very entertaining, I assure you, you have bigger fish to fry than to seek beef with ANYONE. Keep your nose clean…bruh. 4real. You cannot be that stupid.
