(CNN) — Rapper T.I. begins serving an 11-month sentence in an
Arkansas federal prison Monday, while the drug case against his wife is
set for a hearing in a Beverly Hills, California courtroom.
T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris, was on his way from
Atlanta, Georgia, to the Federal Correctional Center in Forrest City,
Arkansas, Monday morning, according to his lawyer’s office. It’s the
same prison where the rapper served seven months last year on a federal
weapons conviction.
“Tiny” Tameka Cottle’s name was on Monday’s court calendar for
arraignment on a drug charge, according to the judge’s clerk, but it was
unclear if she would travel from Atlanta to California to attend.
