Rapper The Game Turns Himself In

The rapper The Game turned himself in to start serving a 60-day jail sentence. He received the jail sentence as apart of a plea deal after he pleaded no contest to felony possession of a firearm in a school zone. He was also given 150 hours of community service and three years of probation. He also had two other charges against him that were dismissed, which were making criminal threats and exhibiting a firearm in the presence of a peace officer.

The charges are from a 2007 basketball game at the Rita Walters Educational Learning Complex in Compton where The Game beat up another player. He then pulled out a pistol and threatened to kill the man.
