Kanye West Sentenced To Two Years Of Probation, 250 Hours Community Service And Anger Management Sessions

 

 The controversial rapper Kanye West was sentenced to two years of probation and must also attend 24 private anger management sessions following the incident at LAX airport last year.

Judge Alan Rubin sentenced West to serve two years’ probation for the misdemeanour battery conviction. Adding that he will also review the community service to ensure the rap megastar receives no special treatment.

However a lawyer representing the victim Daniel Ramos blasted the judge telling him West should be thrown into jail. The legal rep also demanded the detail of West’s community service should be made public.

 "I was only doing my job, and he broke the law," Ramos said. "I believe that if I did what he did to me, I would have been put behind bars." 

 West was faced with the possibility of jail and a difficult trial unless he accepted the plea deal from prosecutors which included probation.
 The incident was caught on camera and shows West rushing at a photographer and attempting to wrestle his camera from his hands in a 15-seconds scuffle.

Ramos falls to the ground in the video and sustained injuries to his hip. His lawyer Gloria Allred has filed a civil suit against West on behalf of the photographer.

 It comes after West avoided criminal charges by reaching a civil settlement with a man he was accused of assaulting outside a Beverly Hills chiropractor’s office.
