At Last Ja Rule Released From Prison After Serving 2 Years For Gun Possession And Tax Evasion

Ja Rule real name Jeffrey Atkins is finally a free man …  the rapper was released from prison ( Ray Brook Federal Prison in New York) yesterday after serving out his sentences for attempted illegal gun possession and tax evasion.

A source close to the rapper tells TMZ, his wife picked him up around 10AM and drove him straight home, where he’ll remain on home confinement until July 28th.

The rapper was hit with the 2-year sentence in 2010 when he pled guilty to attempted criminal possession of a weapon — stemming from a 2007 incident in which cops found a loaded semi-automatic handgun in his sports car. He turned himself in to authorities in June 2011.
