Lil Wayne’s Jail Sentence Postponed For Third Time

The Universe really doesn’t want Lil Wayne to spend the next year on Rikers Island. The rap star – scheduled to start a one-year prison term on his Manhattan gun possession plea Wednesday — now doesn’t have to turn himself in until Monday, court officials said this afternoon.

Last month, Wayne was granted an additional two weeks of freedom pending extensive dental surgery. After turning himself in on Tuesday, the “Lollipop” hitmaker was once again set free when a fire shutdown the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse.
