Juelz Santana is free at last!
The 38-year-old Dipset rapper and “Love & Hip Hop” star, born LaRon Louis James, was released from Petersburg Medium FCI federal prison in Hopewell, Virginia, on Wednesday (August 5).
Juelz was sentenced to 27 months in prison for gun possession.

He was charged with 1 count of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and two counts of carrying a weapon on an aircraft.

His wife, Kimbella James, has been fighting to get Juelz released from prison early due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Once he was released, Juelz immediately hopped on Instagram to announce the good news:

He will now remain on supervised release for one year.
Hopefully, he Juelz will stay on the good foot.
