July 19, 2001: Free Ol' Dirty Bastard

Wu-Tang Clan rapper Ol' Dirty Bastard was sentenced to spend between two and four years behind bars after being found guilty of drug possession. The tough sentence stemmed from an arrest in 1999 when police found cocaine and marijuana in his car. The man known on his birth certificate as Russell Jones was originally given a lesser sentence to go to a rehab center, but he broke out of it.
