Rapper Gucci Mane Will Not Be Released From Prison Early

Gucci Mane has been locked up in prison for almost two years now on federal gun charges, but we recently reported on rumors claiming the Atlanta rapper could be getting out as early as July of 2015. Although the rumors claimed he would be getting out July 11th, the rappers lawyer has shot down all rumors during an interview with MTV News.

“We do not know where that rumor came from, so that’s just Internet and social media fabrication,” Findling said to MTV News. “We have no idea where that release date came from because we’re still in the midst of resolving things with the Bureau of Prisons. There was some confusion on their part, about his release date. I can’t get into specifics, but we’re in the midst of corresponding with the Bureau of Prisons,” Findling added. “I’m trying to iron out a specific release date for him, but that I can tell you that is not his release date. There’s nothing formal about that. It’s a product of social media.” (XXL)
