Just days after his release from serving 8 months in Riker’s Island for a 2007 gun charge, Lil Wayne was sentenced to three years of unsupervised probation and 360 hours of community service for a 2008 arrest, in which border patrol agents found cocaine, ecstasy and a handgun on his tour bus.
He appeared in court yesterday (November 5th) in Yuma, Arizona and pled guilty to one count of felony possession of a dangerous drug. The more serious charges of gun possession and drug possession were thrown out.
According to the terms of his probation, Lil Wayne has been banned from consuming alcohol for the next three years.
The rap star, who was just released from Rikers Island after serving eight months on a separate gun charge, is also banned from associating with any person with a criminal record without prior written approval, or from knowingly associating with any person engaged in criminal activity.
Additionally, Lil Wayne, who’s love of marijuana and other narcotics is well documented, cannot possess or use illegal drugs, toxic vapors or controlled substances.
Lil Wayne must submit to random drug and alcohol testing.
