Episode Description from the Publisher

Fugees Pras Michel Begins 14-Year Prison Sentence: A Legal Battle Ahead Rapper Pras Michel, known for his work with the Fugees, has begun his fourteen-year prison sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution in Safford, Arizona. Michel was convicted last year on charges of conspiracy and acting as an unregistered foreign agent, stemming from his alleged involvement with Malaysian businessman Jho Low. Prosecutors claimed Michel helped funnel millions of Lows money into the 2012 presidential election as fake campaign contributions to influence the Justice Department. Michels legal team argues his rights were violated and key facts were hidden, planning to appeal the decision. Despite the sentence, Michels legal battle is far from over, with his lawyers preparing to challenge the verdict. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
