Rapper Sean Kingston jailed for $1m fraud involving 232-inch TV and bulletproof Cadillac

Rapper Sean Kingston has been sentenced to 3 years in federal prison for a fraud scheme, along with his mother, involving luxury items valued at over $1 million. The Jamaican-American singer, known for hits like "Beautiful Girls" and "Fire Burning," was arrested in 2024 in California. Prosecutors said Kingston used his celebrity status to lure victims on social media, promising to promote their products but sending fake wire receipts instead of payment. The singer apologized to the court and will begin serving his sentence immediately.
