T.I. Gets off Easy
Tip and his family on Easter
Looks like T.I.’s lawyers are sketching out a plea deal that will limit his bid to 1 year.
From the Associated Press:
Rapper T.I. was expected to plead guilty Thursday to federal weapons charges and will face prison time, according to two people familiar with his case.
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.
If this goes through, those lawyers definitely deserve a raise and some hookers.
Update:
Tip is expected to enter the plea at 1:30 p.m. Quick, get those “Free T.I.” t-shirts ready.
