American Rapper Ja Rule is out of prison

Mr. Rule, a.k.a. Jeffrey Atkins, has been released from Ray Brook Federal Prison in New York this morning, 7^th May, 2013.

The rapper earned a two-year sentence in 2010 when he pleaded guilty to attempted criminal possession of a weapon, stemming from a 2007 incident.

In 2011, Ja Rule was also sentenced to 28 months behind bars for tax evasion, after failing to pay taxes on more than $3 million in earnings from 2004-2006.

We gathered that “Rule served the bulk of the tax evasion sentence concurrently with his gun possession sentence, since the gun charge didn’t quite cover the tax evasion.

Anyway, Mr. Rule is officially done with cells now.

Like seriously: Is this now the new trend? Ja Rule out, Lauryn Hill in….. “Lauryn Hill was sentenced to prison for tax evasion on Monday.
