Lil Wayne Sentencing | USsPost:For all those that thought Lil Wayne would not be going to prison, they were proved wrong today. The rapper was addressed by his real name Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. (born September 27, 1982), better known by his stage name Lil Wayne, is an American rapper. Formerly a member of the rap group the Hot Boys, he joined the Cash Money Records collective as a teenager.
Lil Wayne was sentenced to 1 year in jail, which is exactly 12 months. With good behavior his jail sentence can be dropped down to as low as 10 months.
Before going to jail Lil Wayne said farewell to his fans via an online broadcast. The charges stem from a July 2007 arrest after police found a .40-caliber gun on his tour bus. Wayne could have been put away for 15 years for the felony, but in October he copped a plea deal, drastically cutting his sentence down to one year.
