Jacob "The Jeweler" sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison

by Al_Capone on June 24th, 2008

http://media.defsounds.com/uploads/assets/1364/1382/8783/asset.jpgJacob " The Jeweler" Arabov, the famed hip hop jeweler, was sentenced today to 2 1/2 years in prison for lying to investigators and not testifying to federal agents on jewels that were seized in an arrest he had information on.
The jewels in question belonged to the alleged co-founder of Black Mafia Family (BMF), Terry Flenory. Also known for drug trafficking, Flenory pleaded guilty last October, and was sentenced to 30 months behind bars along with a $50,000 fine. According to the Detroit Free Press, for withholding information regarding this case, Jacob faced a maximum of 46 months in prison.
The jeweler, admitted his wrong doings during sentencing earlier today in Detroit telling the judge, "I feel ashamed that I broke the law of this country, and its been so good to me and my family."

The judge set the date of January 15th that Jacob must report to begin serving time, as well as making recommendations that he completes his sentence in a federal facility in Pennsylvania.

Police arrested the jeweler in 2006 at his New York shop on money laundering charges of approximately $270 million in drug money.

The Feds don’t care about a lil 13 year old girl getting fucked, cause most of them get turned on by that type of sick shit. The feds want the minorities to stay in a hole and don’t come out. But them BMF niggas were real hustlers, theses niggas were fucking w diamonds, damn. that’s hard.

How the hell did that nigga from BMF get only 30 months for all that shit they did! That shit would get you life in prison. Feds start at 10-20 years for that dope so how in the hell the Kingpin gets 30 months??? I need his lawyer number A.S.A.P. i know alot of niggas that could used that lawyer cause he good to get a kingpin only 30 months.

Duke went out hard, no names, no reduced sentenced, no nothing, Damn, I really thought he would be the one the Jakes (hip hop cops) would crack since they know he deals with all these crazy rappers. Honestly, Jacob is straight Bossin, sonn has to report to Jail on January 15th, you know that more then enough time to get his business in order: not only his gwap, but also some Guard payoffs to make sure his cell is comfortable: cable Tv (w/ Tivo), Laptop, good food etc,…trust me Jacob is the Real Life Mobster sonn,…shiiit even Gotti & Pauli went away for a lil bit,…lets hope he learns his lesson

I think they put 30months by mistake. i read in a magazine he got life but because he turned in money and assets they reduced it to 30 years…and he didnt snitch on jeezy someone else in BMF did and BMF was all over the country so he had nothin to do wit it

Man, I know this off the subject…but c’mon, some of yall are straight homo with your names.

50 Cent GOAT- Guilty, I think that might be the greatest overstatement in mankinds history….ohh wait…

PLIES GOAT- Nope this takes the cake…Plies isnt even a good rapper, let alone the GOAT.

Same goes to the Weezy GOAT and anyone else who puts goat on thier screename. Exceptions:

Nas, Jay, Pac, Biggie, Air Jordan, KG!!!!!, Ali, Frazier, Roy Jones Jr, Tyson( pre Robin Givens drama), Tony Hawk, Bucky Lasek, Wayne Gretzky, Jackie Robinson, Nolan Ryan, Hank( Fuck Barry Bonds) Aaron….see there are plent of other names that deserve GOAT status. Some of yall need to quit, seriously…Plies and Weezy and 50….stop, just stop.
