The 27-year-old singer, whose real name is Clifford Harris, was expected to be sentenced to 1,500 hours of community service talking to youth groups around the country, followed by about 12 months in prison, according to two people familiar with the negotiations who spoke on condition of anonymity because the plea deal had not been finalized yet Thursday morning.
Damn... He got a great deal considering what he faced:
He was charged with possession of unregistered machine guns and silencers, as well as possession of firearms by a convicted felon. He faced a maximum of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for each count.
Nothing is final yet, so if any changes are announced, I will surely edit the post.
UPDATE:
TIP is to serve one year and one day in prison, perform 1000 hours community service and pay a $100,000 fine. The sentence of over 1 year makes him eligible for %15 reduction in time for good behavior. He will be sentenced March 27th 2009 and likley start his prison term then. HOWEVER, if he fails to abide by these terms, and fails to show responsibility for his actions, he may end up sentenced to 97 Months (8 years + Change) in jail.
