Sean Kingston’s latest stage wasn’t a music venue but a federal courtroom in South Florida, and the performance ended with him being led away in handcuffs. The 35 year old rapper was sentenced on Friday to three and a half years in prison for his role in a fraud scheme that prosecutors say swindled $1 million. As Page Six reports, Kingston stood before US Judge David Leibowitz, apologized, and promised he had learned from his mistakes.
His attorney asked for him to be allowed to self-surrender later because of health concerns, but the judge wasn’t buying it. Kingston was ordered into custody immediately. He wore a black suit and white shirt, taking off the jacket before marshals cuffed him and walked him out of the room.
