Richard B. Russell Federal Courthouse today is where T.I. was sentenced to 11 months in prison for violating his parole after his drug arrest in L.A.

As he quotes, “I screwed up,” said the ATL rapper (born Clifford Harris, Jr.).  “I screwed up bigtime, and I’m sorry. I want drugs out of my life. If I can get treatment and counsling I need, I can beat this. I have been sincere in my message to kids, that guns, gangs and drugs threaten your life, and I mean it. I’ve been a kid. I’ve lived the same life that those kids have. As I discovered in talking to my PO I had many problems from my childhood. Now I am down to the disease of addiction. I need help. For me, my mother my kids. I need the court to give me mercy. Judge, don’t send me back to prison.” (Click the above link for the full official story)
