Foxy Brown Sentenced To 1 Year In Jail; Returns Teary Eyed To Her Rikers Island Cell



Foxy Brown (real name Inga Marchand) will be spending at least the next 8 months of the 1 year jail sentence she received Friday in Manhattan Criminal Court in a Rikers Island Facility Jail Cell. Foxy was sentenced yesterday for charges of violating her probation. Judge Melissa Jackson told Foxy that she is "a great actress" and that her apology for her crimes are "too little, too late".

The 3 month pregnant rapper will likely give birth to her child in jail. She was sent back to her jail cell at the Rikers Island Rose M. Singer Center for Women in East Elmhurst, Queens. Foxy has been jailed in that same facility after being sentenced to jail on the spot by Judge Jackson during her court appearance two weeks ago.

Outside the courtroom on Centre Street, cops from New Jersey (where Foxy/Inga allegedly lied to police about her birthdate and state of residence last month) told the media that she got what she deserved. The bad news didn't end there for the rapper, who turned 29 this past Thursday. Foxy/Inga was also indicted in Kings County (Brooklyn, NY) for her alleged attack on a Brooklyn woman with a BlackBerry in May 2007. She was also indicted on charges of battery in connection with an incident at a Florida hair salon in February 2007.
