The rapper the Game was sentenced on Monday to 60 days in jail after pleading no contest to felony possession of a firearm in a school zone, The Associated Press reported. Under a plea agreement, two other counts against him were dropped, but his sentence also includes 150 hours of community service and three years of probation. The Game, 28, above, whose real name is Jayceon Terrell Taylor, was accused of pulling a gun on an opposing player during a pickup basketball game at a south Los Angeles school nearly a year ago. ... A three-judge court in Los Angeles has denied an appeal by the R&B singer Ronald Isley of his 37-month federal sentence for tax evasion. Mr. Isley, 66, a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and one of the Isley Brothers, whose hits included âTwist and Shout,â argued that his sentence was unreasonable because of his age and poor health. The appellate court said the trial judge correctly âbalanced the need to sanction Mr. Isleyâs âpathologicalâ tax evasion against the need to accommodate Mr. Isleyâs poor health.â Mr. Isley is in the Federal Correctional Institution in Terre Haute, Ind. His projected release date is April 2010.
