BUSTA RHYMES BUSTED...AGAIN

Three Years Probation For Violent Rapper

A Manhattan judge this week sentenced Busta Rhymes to three years probation and ten days of community service for assaulting his former driver and a fan. Not content with beating up on a former employee and someone who pays his wages, the 35-year-old rapper was also prosecuted for driving while intoxicated and with a suspended licence. Presumably this wouldn't have been a problem had he not incapacitated his driver!

For the driving offences he was fined $625, plus court costs. Rhymes, whose real name is Trevor Smith (not a particularly ghetto tag is it!) must also enrol in a programme to combat drunk driving. He pleaded guilty in the Manhattan Criminal Court to the charges which related to four separate incidents.

On leaving the court Trevor is reported to have said, "I just want to say that I'm very grateful to the judge, and I'm very grateful to the system - I believe in the system".

Let's hope he has as much belief in the Public Transport System!
