King was in town for his wife’s funeral. His wife died on Thursday from stomach cancer complications. Ironically, yet randomly, rapper Ja Rule was sentenced to two yearsin jail today for…just too much:
Ja Rule reached a plea deal with prosecutors and will serve two years in jail. Ja Rule was arrested on July 23rd, 2007 after police stopped his $250,000 Maybach for speeding after a concert at the Beacon Theater. Police also found that the registration on the pricey vehicle was suspended and had no insurance.According to the Associated Press, the smell of marijuana gave police a reason to search the vehicle. Ja Rule was arrested when a 40-caliber semiautomatic handgun in the rear driver’s side door was found. The judge has already thrown out Ja Rule’s statement that he had weed on him and he wasn’t charged with drug possession, bolstering the defense’ argument that the search was illegal. [MTV News]
Why can’t we just say no to jail and firearms in public places? We not gon’ make it. Lol smh.
