The rapper known as Da Brat has just been given a fairly serious spanking from an Atlanta judge, who sentenced her to three years in prison for an assault where she reportedly beat a woman with a rum bottle at a Halloween party.
It appears that not all violent celebs slide with the actions.
In DeKalb County Superior Court yesterday the rapper known as Da Brat, officially Shawntae Harris, was given the sentence by Judge Gail Flake, who also passed along seven years’ probation and 200 hours of community service for the Halloween assault that took place at Studio 72 nightclub in Tucker, Ga., a suburb of Atlanta.
Da Brat, who reportedly slammed a nearly full rum bottle into the head of an Atlanta Falcons cheerleader who was serving as a hostess at the party, saw her victim fall down the stairs nd suffer a serious facial cut that left permanent facial scarring after bamming her with the bottle. In an effort to lesson her punishment Harris, pleaded guilty to felony aggravated assault , likely hoping to avoid jail time.
Apparently it didn’t work out for her.
Reportedly after hearing the sentence, the rapper and her family broke down.
They didn’t expect some kind of justice for the victim?
Da Brat, no stranger to bad behavior, also is the proud possessor of a pistol whipping incident on her rap sheet that stems from another incident
Harris, who lives part time in Atlanta and part time in Chicago, was the first female rapper to sell a million copies of an album, for “Funkdafied,” She has toured as well as recorded with Mariah Carey; has been nominated for a Grammy for “Not Tonight,” a collaboration with Missy Elliott, Lil’ Kim, the late Lisa “Left-Eye” Lopes and Angie Martinez; and has also been seen on numerous reality TV shows “The Surreal Life” and “The Celebrity Fit Club” to name two.
Apparently the only thing she has not done, is anger management classes…
