Rapper / producer Shawntae “Da Brat” Harris was sentenced to 3 years in prison and 7 years probation after pleading guilty to one count of aggravated assault.
During a private Halloween party last October, Da Brat struck then-Atlanta Falcons cheerleader Shayla Stevens with a 1,7L rum bottle, causing her to fall down some stairs and cutting her face which will remained scarred permanently. The cheerleader was working as a part-time hostess at Studio 72, the night club where the event was held.
Aside from the total of 10 years she received, Da Brat will have to undergo mental evaluation, receive substance abuse treatment, complete 200 hours of community service and attend anger management classes.
Da Brat is said to feel remorse about what happened and is taking responsibility for her actions.
As a consequence of the attack, Stevens could not attend the Falcons’ games and had to cancel her scheduled appearance on a Tyler Perry show, not to mention the hospital bill she was handed after the brawl. Civil lawsuit is going to be fun.
