Foxy Brown Gets a Year in the Slammer!

Foxy Brown will spend the next year in jail for violating her probation -- and she's going straight back to a cell on Rikers Island, where she's spent the last two weeks.
Breaking News: Foxy Brown
TMZ was in the courtroom when it all went down, and Judge Melissa Jackson slammed Foxy's pleas for mercy, calling her a "great actress," and saying that if this were the first time she'd apologized, she might be believable, but not now. We're told that Foxy was visibly distraught by the verdict, and her mother refused to talk to reporters outside. Foxy originally was sentenced to the probation after an assault on two employees at a nail salon in Manhattan.

Outside the courtroom, cops from New Jersey -- where she allegedly lied to cops about her birthdate and state of residence -- told TMZ that she got what she deserved. Interesting note: if she serves the full term, Foxy will give birth in prison.

Story developing ...




The bad news didn't end there for Foxy (real name: Inga Marchand), as she was also indicted in Kings County for her alleged attack on a Brooklyn woman with a BlackBerry. What's more, she was indicted on charges of battery in connection with an incident at a Florida hair salon in February.

Her lawyer Alan Stutman told TMZ that he thought the punishment was "unfair." TMZ has learned that Foxy will be transported later tonight to a women's facility on Rikers Island where she will serve her sentence, during which she will be eligible for parole in eight months -- if she behaves, that is.

6. Bet she didn't see THAT coming! Was it really worth all the little 8 year old temper tantrums to end up in the slammer? Moron.

7. Holey Moley! That's a serious verdict! On the other and - I feel sorry for -- she's got to acknowledge that she has some serious anger management issues. She already knew she was on probation and still got herself in a lot of trouble.

My my! Some people never learn.

9. Doe anyone think that she might spend only 3 months in jail and will be paroled because of "good behavior". -- Wow -- "good behavior" and L'il Kim" -- that's an oxymoron.

13. Good riddance. That, "Gangsta" act of hers and obnoxious behavior finally bit this poor excuse of a human being.

There will be some REAL gangsta sista's ready to welcome her in prison. Let's see how far that act of hers get's here there.
