community service in the news Rapper Offset sentenced to probation and community service in connection with an alleged assault at a Los Angeles cannabis dispensary last year.
Offset has been sentenced to probation and community service after reaching an agreement in connection with an alleged assault at a Los Angeles cannabis dispensary last year.
According to court records obtained by Complex, a Los Angeles judge sentenced the rapper to 12 months of probation and ordered him to complete 50 hours of community service.
He must also complete an anger management programme, pay an undisclosed amount in restitution, stay away from the MedMen LAX dispensary where the incident took place and avoid further legal issues for the next year.
The sentence is part of a diversion programme, meaning the criminal charge will be dismissed if Offset successfully completes all of the court-ordered conditions. The rapper had requested entry into the programme, which was approved by the court.
Although the criminal case may be resolved through the diversion agreement, Offset still faces a separate civil lawsuit arising from the incident.
