G-Unit Rapper Tony Yayo Sentenced to Community Service

The G-Unit records rapper Tony Yayo was sentenced on Thursday to do 10 days of community service after pleading guilty to harassment of a 14 year old boy. He admitted in a Manhattan Criminal Court that on March 20, 2007, he got out of a sport utility vehicle and glared at the boy in a way that was meant to threaten physical violence. He was originally accused of slapping the boy but a friend of Yayo stated that he was the one who slapped the boy and Yayo pulled him away.

Yayo will have to do his community service at the Book Bank Foundation, which is an organization that encourages literacy. The friend that actually slapped the boy, Lowell Fletcher, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of endangering the welfare of a child and received a nine month jail sentence.
