"Ross (real name: William Leonard Roberts) was appointed a prison guard in December 1995 at a salary of $22,913.54, according to the below personnel record, which was provided to TSG by Jo Ellyn Rackleff, a DoC spokesperson. The rapper's social security number is identical to that of the jail guard. According to the official document, Ross was earning $25,794.34 when he resigned in June 1997. After graduating from the DoC training academy, Ross was assigned to the South Florida Reception Center in Dade County (the lockup is one of three statewide that serves as an intake facility for new prisoners). When a photo of a uniform-clad Ross surfaced last week on
MediaTakeOut.com, the 32-year-old performer claimed to
AllHipHop.com that unnamed "online hackers" put "my face when I was a teenager in high school on other peoples' body. If this shit was real don't you think they would have more specifics, like dates and everything?" He added, "Fake pictures are created by the fake, meant to entertain the fake."
The thing is, if you are a prison guard, you are a prison guard. Thats cool, that doesnt mean youre a snitch. But when you blatantly lie about it... and then youre exposed, thats not too good. What do you have to hide William Roberts? LMAO.
I never cared for his music, but i know people who SWEAR by the dude and how "real" he is. Its very fishy to me for a guy to go from ex corrections officer to "make over a million dollars selling coke" or whatever he claims, and not be connected some kinda way.
