An Atlanta Judge today, has sentenced Da Brat to three years in prison for bashing a woman’s head with a rum bottle. DeKalb County Superior Court Judge Gail Flake sentenced the 34-year-old rapper, with seven years of probation and 200 hours of community service for the Oct. 31 incident, which occurred at Jermaine Dupri’s Studio 72 nightclub in Tucker, Ga., a suburb of Atlanta. Da Brat pleaded guilty to felony aggravated assault in the hopes of winning a light sentence or avoiding jail time altogether. “I love y’all,” she said to her relatives as a deputy hauled her away, per the Atlanta-Journal Constitution.
