On September 22, 2010, just a few weeks after releasing what he has called his “final” studio album, I Still Believe, platinum-R&B-soul-crooner Lyfe Jennings was sentenced by Cobb County Superior Court Judge, Lark Ingram, in Marietta, Georgia to serve 3 1/2 years in jail for his role in a 2008 domestic dispute. In court, Lyfe spoke to the judge, accepting full responsibility for his actions and apologized for what he had done. After serving a 10 year prison sentence for arson from 1992-2002, Lyfe has not had any trouble with the law except on this one occasion. Lyfe is eligible for parole and according to his attorney, Don Samuel, will most likely serve about one-third of his 3 1/2 year sentence. Mr. Samuel also stated that “Although it had been reported otherwise, there were no allegations of physical abuse or violence whatsoever against my client in this case”. He also added, “Lyfe wants his family, friends and fans to know that he is a changed man, but all it takes is one mistake and one bad day to lose your freedom.”
