(CNN) — Rapper T.I. was released from prison on Tuesday after seven months, his attorney confirmed.
The performer, whose real name is Clifford Harris Jr., will serve the remainder of a reduced sentence in a correctional center near Fulton County Airport in Atlanta, Georgia.
Harris was sentenced to a year and a day in March 2009 resulting from weapons charges related to purchasing machine guns and silencers.
Officials charged him with providing a bodyguard with $12,000 to buy weapons.
In May, he reported to a federal prison complex in Forrest City, Arkansas, to begin serving his sentence.
In addition to serving prison time, T.I. was placed on house arrest, given community service and was ordered to pay a $100,300 fine.
It was not the first time the platinum-selling artist had been in trouble with the law.
Harris was not permitted to own any guns because he had been convicted in 1998 on felony drug charges, possession of crack cocaine with intent to distribute, in Cobb County in suburban Atlanta.
After the rapper’s arrest, he entered a plea agreement, which federal authorities called unique because it allowed him to remain out of prison for a year while he performed.
Steve Sadow, Harris’ attorney, said prisoners with Harris’ sentence are eligible for a 54-day sentence reduction for good behavior.
Harris is expected to remain at the halfway house for three months and will still be required to finish serving slightly less than 500 hours of community service and about 23 days of home incarceration.
Before reporting to prison, Harris threw himself a going-away party/concert attended by thousands at Philips Arena in Atlanta.
Shaq Fouled Out ? oooooo and he’s gonna have to pay this time. his wife Shaunie has filed for legal seperation; moved the kids and herself to cali from florida; and had shaqinstein served with a full court pass.
An inside source told us last week that Shaq has been chopping down Shaunie’s best friend and that’s what caused the abrupt filing of the papers. Damn, just two years ago, your boy was dropping her because she let her trainer get it, and now it’s his turn. SMH.
the worst part is that he was cheating for five years with the woman who is supposed to be Shaunie’s best friend. shall we say frienemy
This is gonna be a big payout. I bet it’s gonna excede the $150.M that Michael Jordan paid to His Former Wife Juanita. Pain is in his heart and soon it will be in his wallet - no doubt.
Babies cost money Nasir, and you are a parent already so you know this. why would you not want to take care of your child in the fashion you are living in ? this is why the judge needs to look at his real income and decide fairly on what should be provided to the child, and also Kelis; as she hasn’t worked since she got pregnant.
Honestly now Nasir, there has to be someone paying the bills son. he’s making money and he went half on the baby so,
Daddy be a Father; instead of acting like a spermdonor.

We predict that things are gonna start getting really interesting for Mr. Jones; Real Soon. he betta be nice or he may end up homeless; wishin he could slip back up in that yard to sip a lil bit more of that milkshake.

Comedian Katt Williams has been jailed in Georgia on charges of burglary and criminal trespassing. A deputy at the jail in Coweta County, southwest of Atlanta, confirmed Williams was being held there and that a magistrate was expected to set bond at an arraignment Monday afternoon. The deputy did not have access to a police report to provide more details. Williams’ real name is Micah Williams.
This is Thursday November 5, 2009
listen to this call from a 17 year old man who claims Katt
is holding him hostage in a house somewhere; maybe in Coweta.
the phone he is using is from the areacode (504)
which is southern Louisiana – probably near New Orleans.
the time peroid is off, since we dont’ know exactly when this call happened as he was supposedly locked up over the weekend. that would logically mean that it had to happen sometime last week; after Katt took the man to wherever they went. the drama sounds alot like drugs and hoes to us.
Katt has said that the only thing that was wrong with the
story was that he was in a House He Was Leasing; Whooo-Haaaa !!!
Co’mon Katt, if you’re holdin the man cause you want to keep
him there, while you are doing whatever you are doing; and he
wants to go, you are guilty of holding the man hostage.
what’s so hard to understand about that pimpin ?
We Recall his problems in 2008
Ooooooo,,,The Headlines say “CrazyKatt is at it again”
we remember when he came to the D in 2007 for new years;
and got bish-slapped by a man in a pair of $5g cowboy boots.
we also remember when he went to the mental hospital
for a court ordered evaluation; after suspect behaviour
in new york and finally Sumpter, South Carolina last year.
he had to know they weren’t gonna play that crazy
actin mess in the SC. they just don’t roll like that.
this is speaking from personal knowlege of folks from the SC.
We’re Praying that Someone who Loves Him or that someone
in his family who cares; will step in and finally help
to get Katt Back On Track. he is such a comic genius.
who can ever forget Money Mike ?
“Don’t Be Sorry Hoe, Be Careful”
we must be honest, these words made us want to slap the perm off his lil lucky charms head. it’s just his style of delivery that makes him so memorable. He truly is the personification of the onscreen 90’s pimp.

The Execution of Troy Davis – Will Happen TONITE IF YOU DON’T HELP STOP IT. SAVE Troy Davis, Because He Doesn’t Deserve To Die For A Crime He Didn’t Commit.
Death-row inmate Troy Anthony Davis on Tuesday will file a last-ditch appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, the final court that can consider whether Davis killed a Savannah police officer 20 years ago.
Davis’ attorneys asked the high court to send Davis’ case back to a federal judge for an evidentiary hearing on his innocence claims.
Davis’ new evidence eviscerates the state’s case against him,” the filing said. “Despite substantial new evidence of his innocence, no court has ever held a hearing to assess the scores of new witnesses that show Mr. Davis is innocent.”
The petition says that carrying out Davis’ execution without a “full and fair hearing in which he could make a truly persuasive demonstration that he is actually innocent” would be unconstitutional.
Davis, 40, sits on death row for the killing of off-duty Officer Mark Allen MacPhail. The 27-year-old former Army ranger was shot three times before he could draw his weapon. He was responding to the wails of a man being pistol whipped in a Burger King parking lot.
Since Davis’ 1991 trial, seven of nine state witnesses have recanted their testimony and other witnesses have implicated Sylvester “Redd” Coles as the shooter. Coles was at the scene at the time of the shooting and the first person to implicate Davis in the killing.
Davis is filing an unusual petition for a writ of habeas corpus directly to the Supreme Court. It is through these lawsuits, almost always filed in lower courts and then appealed to the high court, that an inmate can bring a constitutional claim.
The last time the court granted relief to such an extraordinary petition was in 1925, Jason Ewart, one of Davis’ attorneys, said. This involved Philip Grossman, who was serving time for contempt even though he had been granted a presidential pardon. The high court ordered Grossman’s release.
Since then, however, the high court has sent some cases back to federal court judges, directing them to conduct hearings, he said.
“This is the last court that we can go to,” Ewart said. “It’s something that’s not often granted, but we think this is an exceptional case.”
Davis’ innocence claims have attracted worldwide attention. Former President Jimmy Carter, Pope Benedict XVI and former FBI Director William Sessions have asked that Davis be spared death by lethal injection. Amnesty International is holding a rally on Davis’ behalf Tuesday afternoon at the state Capitol.
Chatham County prosecutors, who tried Davis, have long expressed confidence that Davis was the triggerman. Larry Chisolm, who became Chatham’s new DA in January, declined comment Monday on the substance of prior court rulings or the facts of Davis’ case.
“He’s not going to take any action at all until all appeals are exhausted,” Lydia Sermons, a spokesman for the DA’s office, said Monday.
Davis’ Supreme Court petition notes that the only two eyewitnesses who have not recanted their trial testimony are Coles, who later told police he had a .38 caliber revolver on the night of the shooting, and Stephen Sanders, who was at the Burger King with his Air Force buddies.
Two hours after the shooting, Sanders told police he could not recognize anyone at the scene except by their clothes. At the trial two years later, Sanders identified Davis as the killer.
Davis’ recantation evidence is exceptional and warrants intervention by the high court, his petition says.
“Few — if any — recantation cases involve consistent, multiple recantations from state witnesses who were innocent bystanders to the crime,” the petition says.
In past years, Davis has come extraordinarily close to being executed and to getting relief in the courts.
Davis’ execution had previously been set three times but he was granted stays each time — once in 2007 less than 24 hours before he was to be put to death.
Davis has lost his bid for a new evidentiary hearing in two important court rulings, both decided by one-vote margins. In March 2008, the Georgia Supreme Court turned him down in a 4-3 decision. A month ago, the federal appeals court in Atlanta rejected Davis’ appeal by a 2-1 vote.
On April 16, the two federal appeals court judges in the majority said they viewed the recantations with skepticism and, after reviewing Davis’ claims, “remain unpersuaded.”
In dissent, Judge Rosemary Barkett said to execute Davis in the face of the new evidence “is unconscionable and unconstitutional.”
The court kept in place Davis’ stay of execution for another 30 days. That expired Saturday.
