Rapper T.I. Pleads Guilty
On Thursday afternoon, rapper T.I pleaded guilty to having unregistered machine guns which could lead to a 12 month prison sentence.
The 27-year-old who’s real name is Clifford Harris could get his term reduced if his 1,500 hours of community service goes as planned. The rapper would have to speak to youth groups about the consequences of guns, gangs, and drugs.
“While I’m not looking forward to being incarcerated, I have a long road of redemption to travel,” T.I. told reporters outside the courtroom, according to The Associated Press. “I am dedicated and committed to that. I’m looking forward to turning this negative time in my life into a positive. I’d like to thank God for blessing me with a second chance in life and success. I realize I completely violated the law, and I take it very seriously.”
In October T.I. was arrested for possession of unregistered machine guns and silencers and possession of firearms by a convicted felon. He’s been under house arrest since he was released on a $3 million bond October 26th.
