Lyfe Jennings Sentenced To Almost 4 Years In Jail

Lyfe Jennings is headed to jail for 3 1/2 years in an Atlanta courtroom yesterday for firing a gun and leading police on a high-speed chase after a domestic squabble with his baby mama. He and his lawyers were hoping for a shorter one year sentence.

The 37-year old singer was remorseful in the courtroom and took responsibility for his actions: “I did it. I gotta be punished for it and I just want the opportunity to apologize,” Jennings told the judge as he fought back tears.

He also posted a special message to his fans before being locked up: “This will be my last post. To everyone who gave me a chance I am forever in your debt… I have had a fabulous career because of you. All I can say in parting is that I have been honest with yaw. I didn’t sugarcoat a word didn’t hold back a single sylible of my life from yaw.”

He added: “I’ve lived a hundred lives in these 6 yrs so I not only won’t, i don’t have the right to complain. I would like to think that I’ve changed lives by changing my own, tho I can’t be sure. But one thing I am sure of is God gives and takes away in measure. He is fair, just and forever. Amen from aman… Smile, its contageous:)”

This isn’t the first time that Jennings has been in trouble with the law. Before his music career got off the ground, Jennings served a 10-year sentence for arson.
