Lil Wayne Life Behind Bars

This week he began his year behind bars at Riker’s Island for gun possession charges and Lil Wayne has a lot to get used to.

Explaining Wayne’s special circumstances, a corrections source told press, “Inmate Carter is in a category of housing that we call ‘general population/escort,” meaning that he has a protective captain with him.

Days at the facility start early, as breakfast is served at 4:30am so that inmates can get ready for their court appointments and other legal issues.

The source also said that Wayne will be wearing the standard green work shirt and pants as he resides in a six-by-ten cell.
