Busta Rhymes

Rapper Busta Rhymes AKA Trevor Smith, pleaded guilty yesterday to assault, two driving charges, and weapons possession. He avoided a trial and the year long prison sentence that the prosecutors were recommending.

The judge in the case disagreed with prosecutors and instead sentenced him to three years probation and ten days of community service for beating a fan who spit on his car.

Rhymes was also fined $1,250 for driving with a suspended license in 2006 and driving while intoxicated in 2007.

How’s that for celebrity justice?
