Judge Gives Foxy Brown One More Chance

Foxy Brown, warned by a judge that her next offense would be her last, was allowed to remain free after pleading guilty yesterday to violating probation by leaving New York without permission.

Brown was arrested during a melee at a Florida beauty supply store on Feb. 15. Police charged her with resisting an officer and simple battery.

Lawyers for the Department of Probation and the Manhattan district attorney’s office urged Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Melissa Jackson to jail the 27-year-old rapper, born Inga Marchand.

But Jackson said, “If she pleads guilty to leaving the jurisdiction without permission, I will allow her to continue on probation with the condition that on the next violation, she’s getting resentenced.”

“I'm going to give her basically what is a third chance,” the judge added. “I’m going to give her one more chance -- three strikes and you’re out. Basically, I'll be giving the keys to the jailhouse to Ms. Marchand.”

“I believe Judge Jackson believes I'm trying to work hard,” Foxy Brown said after the hearing.

“She seems to be saying, ‘I’m pulling for you, kiddo.’ She’s seeing the maturity in me and she believes in me. I’m at the rebuilding stage as a person.”

Brown was sentenced to three years’ probation and anger management classes after a fight with manicurists over payment at a Manhattan nail salon in 2004.

I think she should not get a third chance, y=the reason being foxy brown know that she's on probation and she knows that she is 'not suppose to leave out of manhattan but she could consider herself lucky.

Do burden hard working taxpayer's with foxy's jailtime or court cost, if she ends up locked up she should also get a fine that amounts to the cost of her days in jail. Today's rappers are wil'n and they are not profound impact making people
