T.I. Offered 15 Years

by AIRKAT

THURSDAY FEBRUARY 28, 2008



Rumors abound that rapper T.I. was offered a 15 year sentence in a "plea deal" today. If T.I. accepts, he'll have to do a minimum of 13 years of his sentence.

T.I. was arrested last October mere hours before the BET awards (where he racked up a couple of awards by the way) after an undercover investigation discovered T.I. - a convicted felon - to be in possession of a small arsenal of weapons including automatic rifles and silencers.

I keep telling these kids that guns are not the way -- in fact, I got a song called kids, that's not the way.

He really fucked up this time. He keeps getting himself in trouble. He just pulls out sumthi each year since and before he came out. I think he is stupid. Why would you buy gubs yourself? But then again his boduguard was workin with the popo. The nigga set him up and T.I thought there was no danger in goin himself. DAMZ. Im really gonna miss him. Im addicted to his music

Yea so after watchin the video it don't look good. If he start serving in 09 he'll be out the earliest 2022.

I just don't understand why he put himself in a position to fail. He's making so much money, on the top of his game but he's out buying guns. At this point he's supposed to have his hands clean of anything that can get him in jail...even more so with him having done time b4.
I cant even say hold ya head TIP, ya kinda did this to yaself homie

Fuck that plea deal, for that much time (13-15 years), you might ass well tell your lawyer to fight that shit, unless somehow he can chop that plea deal down to like 4-8 years. Then by all means take it, but 13 years minimum is too damn for a plea deal.

You on point again, pimpin'. What kind of plea is that, that can't be the charge which hold the smallest penalty? He needs to concentrate on beating this one, cause the law is goin' for his head. Either way, another of hip-hops top acts is facing serious time. Get smart people.

2 yrs, yea right. Dd you not catch the part about 10yrs being minimum for having a silencer. T.I. is fiznucked. He can take his chance and fight it, but then he night get 25yrs plus. Him and the guns, even if he was buying them, should never have been in the same place at the same time. Have someone else do ya dirt hommie. T.I. can do the remix of "ya played yourself".

That is just common sense. If rappers were as criminal minded as they claim, then he should know this. It is not an after thought, just smart thinking. If you at the top of the pyramid, do not touch the "work" or the guns.

^^Very true.

But homie is human and he made a mistake (in this case a BIIIIIIIIGGGGGG mistake) that's evidently gonna cost him his prime years (musically) of freedom.

I swear to God life is really like a full circle, Shyne is just about to get out after doing close to 10 years, at the same time TI bout to go in doing close to 10 years. Life is a trip.

Yeah, you can't feel bad for him, even he said it on his last album:

I feel another case coming around the corner any day
I know the consequences Im the same nigga anyway

He knew the consequences, tough break king. I try to be optimistic about it, but him getting a break is seeming a lot less likely.

DJ Drama was the one that snitched on him. They plotted this out to take over grand hustle. drama is a whiteboy. you cant out smart white folks it. T.I probaly gonna get 40 years if he doesnt accept the 15 years. either way when he get out he gonna be called sweetness. he weighs about 130 pounds about the same as a female. you know what they do to little females in lockup. grease up T.i . Gonna be the queen of the south when he get out.
