Apparently, Gucci Mane has a problem with freedom. Or maybe he's addicted to welcome home parties. This time Gucci gets sent to jail for attempting to throw a woman out of his moving car.
According to MTV >>
In April, Gucci was jailed on numerous unspecified probation violations, which stem from a 2005 aggravated assault case. That month, however, the Atlanta rapper was also arrested on charges he shoved a female passenger from a moving vehicle back in January. While Gucci served time on probation violations from the '05 case, he had yet to be sentenced in the January incident until Tuesday (September 13).
The rapper's attorney, Ashutosh Joshi, confirmed to MTV News that Gucci has been sentenced to six months in jail after pleading guilty to two counts of battery, two counts of reckless conduct and one count of disorderly conduct for pushing a woman out of his Hummer back on January 28.
The "Wasted" MC is currently locked up in Georgia's DeKalb County Jail, where his lawyer hopes he will be allowed to serve out his entire sentence. "It's a case that we knew about, that we expected would come about at some point," Joshi said.
State Court Judge Eleanor Ross sentenced Gucci to six months and three years of probation, which is to take effect after his release. As a result of his plea, the Atlanta trap spitter was ordered to complete 12 weeks of anger management courses, pay $5,091 to cover the woman's medical bills and a separate $3,000 fine. (The 1017 rapper's current sentence also satisfies the criminal damage to government property charge he was handed after kicking a cop car last year.)
