Jay-Z
was sentenced to to three years probation on Thursday,
December 6th for the 1999 stabbing of Lance "Un"
Rivera at the Kit Kat Klub. Jay-Z plead guilty to the
stabbing in October. Persecutors were frustrated when
Rivera stopped cooperating, after he received $600,000
in an out of court civil settlement with Jigga.
"If you
are arrested again, that would be a serious situation,"
an agitated judge told Jay-Z after he showed up 15 minutes
late for court, arriving
around 9:15 AM.
"We are
pleased that this case has been resolved in this fashion."
Jay-Z’s lawyer Ben Brafman said.
