Foxy Brown filed suit against the Correction Department on Monday, claiming that the judge’s decision to place her in jail for probation violation was “arbitrary” and “unlawful,” according to the New York Post.
Unfortunately for the rapper, who was placed in Rikers Island recently, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Laura Ward tossed the suit, which stated that Foxy was “suffering greatly” at the facility.
Judge Melissa Jackson decided to send Foxy to jail on August 22 after she was arrested in Brooklyn for assaulting her neighbor with a Blackbery cellphone. Foxy was then pulled over in Mahwah, New Jersey the next day and issued seven traffic summonses, but not before giving police an incorrect birth date and spelling of her name.
As Foxy was on probation for events such as last year’s “beauty store debacle,” in which Foxy allegedly threatened and verbally assaulted a beauty shop owner, she was placed in jail for the latest infractions.
