Busta Gets Probation, Community Service

by JOKESTA

WEDNESDAY MARCH 19, 2008

After copping a plea deal earlier this year, New York rapper Busta Rhymes has finally been sentenced for assaulting his former driver and a fan.

Rhymes, real name Trevor Smith, was also ordered to perform 10 days of community service; pay a $1,250 fine, plus court costs; and enroll in a drunken driving program.

The charges stem from separate incidents in which Rhymes allegedly assaulted a fan for spitting on his vehicle and continuously abused his former driver.

According to CBS News, Scott Leemon, Rhymes' lawyer, said a private agency called Rock Corp. will work out the community service program. He said he doesn't know yet what it will be. He also said Rhymes has paid most of the fines and surcharges he owed.

After the sentencing, Rhymes said the terms of the plea deal won't be a problem. "I have no trouble being a good dude because that's what I am," said Rhymes.

"I couldn't feel better, and this couldn't have happened at a better time. I thank the judge for giving me a chance and I thank everybody for being supportive," he continued.

He finished off by saying he just wanted to get back to "having fun, making music, running around and showing love."

Co-Sign to the fullest, P. Me and my man's been sayin' that ish for a long time. It's gotta be the 'roids. The boy even cut his dreads, prolly ain't have nobody to take penned up agression out on. Think about, when a livewire like him gets on 'roids, how do you think he is gonna react?

Busta Rhymes is gay...dats a fact. They talked about it on the radio and I know a rapper in the industry who goes by the name of snake eyes...look him up. He told that him and his friend was in V.I.P and his homeboy had maad chickz around him and Chris Brown told thr body guards to get homeboy and his girls outta there cause chris wanted to dance wit his homeboys...dont dat sound gay? And busta rhymes had got married so that peeps wouldn't talk bout him being gay. It turns out that alot of peep in the industry are gay. They suck dick to get in, or get to a certain point where they wanna be at. Bust Rhymes, the biggest homophobe is GAY!!! and go ahead and trash my comment...I kno the truth
