Rapper will reportedly be placed under 23 days of supervised release. By James Montgomery T.I. (file) Photo: Gifted Talents/ RMG T.I. is officially a free man. Mostly. On Friday (March 26), the rapper completed his prison sentence , stemming from a 2007 arrest for attempting to illegally purchase firearms. Originally given 366 days in prison, T.I. was released to a halfway house in December and earlier this month, he was allowed to return home to finish the remainder of his sentence, which ended today, according to Federal Bureau of Prisons records. But T.I. isn’t exactly out of the woods just yet. While his home confinement may have ended, his lawyer reportedly told TMZ that T.I. will now be placed under 23 days of “supervised release,” meaning he’ll have to be home by 11 p.m. unless he’s performing, in which case, his curfew is extended until 1 a.m. The Web site also reported that the rapper still needs to complete some 400 hours of community service and will remain on probation for three years. Before his prison stint began, T.I. made an arrangement with prosecutors, in which he would complete 1,500 hours of community service, 1,000 of which needed to be completed before he would be formally sentenced. In exchange, he was given the 366-day jail sentence, which allowed him the opportunity for early release. T.I. officially began serving his time in May, meaning he ended up doing 10 months of the year-and-a-day bid. Since being moved to the halfway house in December, T.I. has been recording the follow-up to his 2008 album, Paper Trail, and earlier this month, he announced plans for a brand- new single, “I’m Back.” Do you think T.I. will regain the status he had before his prison sentence? What do you want to see him do next? Sound off below. Related Artists T.I.
