Ja Rule Set For Prison Release In February
Incarcerated rapper Ja Rule is set to be released from prison in February (13).The Always On Time hitmaker, real name Jeffrey Atkins, began a two-year prison stint at a facility in upstate New York in June, 2011 after he was convicted of weapons charges relating to a 2007 arrest.
He was later handed another 28 months behind bars after neglecting to pay taxes on $3 million (£1.9 million) worth of earnings between the years 2004 and 2006.
Ja Rule was initially projected to remain behind bars until 2015, but he will now walk free on 21 February, 2013.
