Rick Ross caught a sweet deal in his pistol-whipping and kidnapping case. In exchange for pleading guilty to a felony, and paying fines, Rozay basically gets five years probation.

That’s it, that’s all.

Reports TMZ:

The rapper was in a Fayette County courtroom Tuesday facing kidnapping, aggravated assault, aggravated battery and other charges for allegedly holding a groundskeeper on his Georgia estate at gunpoint, forcing him into a guesthouse and pistol-whipping the guy.

Under the deal, Ross pled no contest to 1 felony count of aggravated assault. The other felony charges were dropped. Ross was sentenced to time served in jail — he had been locked up for a week. He was also ordered to pay a $10,000 fine.

Now here’s the sweet part of the deal for Ross. He’s being sentenced as a first time felony offender … that means when he pays the $10k fine — which he’ll do Tuesday night — the conviction is erased from his record.

Ross also pled guilty to five misdemeanors and for that he gets 60 months of probation. This is what happens when you can afford good lawyers.
