Philadelphia rapper Beanie Sigel
will spend the next three months in prison, after he violated his probation for
a third time on Friday March 28. Probation officials revealed that Sigel
provided a false urine sample and tested positive for Xanax and Percocet five
times over the past month.
Sigel, who admitted being addicted to the painkiller and muscle relaxers,
was originally sentenced to six months house arrest in January, after a second
probation violation. In that case, a federal judge found that Sigel took an
unauthorized trip to Atlantic City, New Jersey, and had contact with a
convicted felon.
According to the rapper, his stint under house arrest has left him unable
‘to earn the living” he used to earn prior to getting into trouble with the
law. Sigel told the judge that his relapse was brought on by money problems. He
also revealed he was about to lose his house, because he can’t travel to earn
money through performances.
“I’m losing everything because of this situation,” Sigel said.
