Lil Wayne has been Sentenced, One Year in Prison

Back in 2007, Lil Wayne was arrested alongside Ja Rule for gun possession around the time they were filming the video for their single, “Uhh Ohhh!” In November of 2007, Wayne appeared in court, in Manhattan, alongside Ja Rule, Busta Rhymes, and Remy Ma. It was then that he pleaded not guilty to illegal gun possession.

However, Lil Wayne has pleaded guilty to attempted weapon possession. Because of this, a one year prison sentence is expected. According to AllHipHop.com, Wayne was expected to make his plea deal today. Despite pleading not guilty, initially, a source close to his camp has said that he will end up pleading guilty.

To help him in the case, Lil Wayne hired Bruce Budowle, a former FBI geneticist during this summer. Lil Wayne is expected to be sentenced on Wednesday, January 20, 2010.
