(AllHipHop News) Cleveland, Ohio rapper Flesh-n-Bone of the Grammy Award winning and Platinum group Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, reached a plea deal in his domestic battery case.

Flesh was charged with inflicting corporal injury on his spouse, threatening her and falsley imprisoning her during a January altercation.

Flesh, born Stanley Howse, decided to plead guilty to false imprisonment after the January arrest.

In return, the prosecution dropped the counts of threatening and false imprisonment.

Flesh was sentenced to three years probation, time served in jail and 100 hours of community service.

In addition, Flesh will participate in a domestic violence program and donate $400 to a battered women’s shelter.

“Flesh has always maintained his innocence of these charges, but it was best for his family and Bone Thugs to put this case behind him,” his attorney Shepard Kopp told TMZ.com.

Flesh was released from prison in July of 2008, after serving over nine years in prison for threatening a neighbor with an AK-47.
