"Bone Thugs-n-Harmony" rapper Flesh-n-Bone won't face additional jail time after allegedly beating his wife — he struck a deal with prosecutors to secure his freedom.
Flesh — real name Stanley Howse — was arrested back in January on suspicion of domestic violence after a fight with his wife allegedly turned violent. He was later charged with inflicting corporal injury on a spouse, threatening her, and false imprisonment.
But Howse and his attorney Shepard Kopp struck a deal with prosecutors, in which Howse agreed to plead guilty to false imprisonment in exchange for dropping the first two charges.
Howse was sentenced to 3 years probation and time served in jail — in addition to 100 hours of community service. He must also participate in a domestic violence program and donate $400 to a battered women's shelter.
Kopp says, "Flesh has always maintained his innocence of these charges, but it was best for his family and Bone Thugs to put this case behind him."
