Kanye West Sentenced To Two Years Probation, 250 Hours Community Service, And Anger Management

Let’s hope he can pull off orange overalls.


Kanye West has been ordered to perform 250 hours of community service for his misdemeanor battery conviction after coming to blows with a paparazzo last year.

The Judge also sentenced that the 36-year-old rapper to two years probation and 24 anger management sessions.

Kanye’s lawyer entered a no contest plea (treated the same as guilty) after he was filmed running at photographer Daniel Ramos and attempting to pry his camera out of his hands at LAX airport.

Judge Alan Rubin will also review the community service to make sure Kanye does not receive special treatment due to his status.


Ramos was seen falling to the ground in the 15 second attack, sustaining injuries to his hip.

The photographer’s lawyer was however unimpressed with the judge’s ruling, calling for Kanye to be jailed.

He has also demanded that details of Kanye’s community service be made public.

Ramos added: "I was only doing my job, and he broke the law.


"I believe that if I did what he did to me, I would have been put behind bars."

This isn’t the first time Kim Kardashian’s husband-to-be has faced similar charges after he reached a civil settlement with a man he was accused of assaulting outside of a Beverley Hills chiropractor's office.
