JumpinJack AJ Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Rapper Beanie Sigel Lands Back in Prison AP Posted: 2008-03-29 14:06:56 Filed Under: Celebrities in Court, Music News (March 29) - Rap star Beanie Sigel has returned to prison. A federal judge in Philadelphia sentenced Sigel to three months in prison Friday after authorities say he gave a false urine sample to probation officials. Officials also say the rapper tested positive five times this month for Xanax and Percocet. Sigel, whose real name is Dwight Grant, was already serving a six-month term in a halfway house for having previously violated supervised release. Sigel told the judge he was an addict and had a relapse when he was sent to the halfway house. In 2004, U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick sentenced Sigel to a year in prison and two years of supervised release after Sigel pleaded guilty to weapons and drug charges. He was acquitted in September 2005 of attempted-murder charges in connection with a shooting. ------------------------------------------------------- This doesn't say much for his character. After previous charges, u think he'd get his crap 2gether...or at least take a mature hold of the self-control in his life so that he didn't end up back there. It's bad enough crappy rappers like Sigel have pop fans thinking that he represents true, quality Hip-Hop music...but when idiot actions follow him, it makes it worse.
