Five People Lose Their Jobs Over Foxy Brown Prison Scandal
A word of advice to future jailers who want to give special treatment to prisoners. If you are going to risk your job doing favors for someone you might want to pick a bigger star and someone who is actually liked. Five prison guards in New York have either quit or been fired for allowing Foxy Brown to conduct a photo shoot in her jail cell to promote her new album. This photo shoot was permitted despite the fact that Foxy Brown was serving a 12 month sentence for violating her probation. She had violated her probation for getting into a fight with two nail salon employees.
Foxy says she was treated like every other prisoner. "It was incarceration, not vacation. I only wore the designer clothing I was allowed to have. There were certain gang colors my sneakers couldn't be... I didn't have any special visitation rights."
Uh huh. And how many other inmates got to wear designer clothes or have photo shoots in their cells? All of this for Foxy Brown? Seriously? What would happen if there was someone actually famous or important locked up there? Room service? Turn down service every night?
