Unfortunately T.I. was sentenced to 11 months behind bars after his drug possession on the Sunset Strip back in September 2010, an arrest that caused law enforcement officials to revoke his probation stemming from a federal gun conviction back in 2009.
Now, T.I. has been released one month early from an Arkansas prison, and is on his way to either a community living facility or home confinement.Chris Burke, spokesman for the Federal Bureau of Prisons, tells us T.I. was released at 7:29 AM local time, and is "in transit" to begin the next leg of his sentence.
His attorney, Jonathan Leonard, confirmed T.I. was released but did not immediately say where his client is going.
T.I. checked into prison on November 1, 2010 and he was originally scheduled to be released on September 29.
Moments later is already back on Twitter and just tweeted saying, "The storm is over & da sun back out. IT'S OUR TIME TO SHINE SHAWTY!!!!! Welcome to the beginning of our Happy Ending!!!!"
He also said, "Feels great to be back where I belong...Back in the arms of those who need me the most."
