Will Lil Wayne Ever Serve His Sentence?!

On July 22,  2007, rapper, Dwayne Carter III, better known by fans as Lil Wayne’s tour bus was searched and a .40-caliber pistol was found. After the gun was found, Lil Wayne was faced one count of criminal weapons possessions as well as one count of criminal possession of a loaded weapon and was facing a minimum of three and a half years in jail and a maximum of 15 years in jail.

Lil Wayne ended up getting sentenced to one year in jail. Although the rapper got himself into this mess over a year and a half ago, he has yet to serve his jail time. The rapper’s prison sentencing has been postponed, not once, not twice, but three times.

The rapper’s sentencing was first delayed about a month ago for dental surgery. Lil Wayne’s sentencing was supposed to take place this past Monday. However, a fire broke out in at Manhattan Criminal Court  as a result of faulty electrical wiring, said to the New York City Fire Department.  While many other cases were moved to a courthouse located across the street from the Manhattan Criminal Court, Lil Wayne’s case was not. His sentencing was rescheduled to take place this afternoon, but Judge Charles H. Solomon decided to move it to this coming Monday.

Does Lil Wayne have all the luck, or what?

The rapper has definitely not wasted or taken his extra time as a free man for granted. According to the Lil Wayne Fansite Twitter account, Lil Wayne has been busy recording dozens of music videos so his fans have things to watch while he is serving his jail sentence. Last night, Lil Wayne made a surprise appearance at the Jay-Z concert and Madison Square Garden. He got on stage and sang “Im Goin In,” with Young Jeezy–how ironic.

I have to ask. If Lil Wayne were an ordinary citizen and not a popular rapper and celebrity, would his jail sentencing been postponed three times?
